Hi! I’m Kim.
I have been practicing Usui Reiki since 2016, which I initially learned to use on myself while in the midst of an extensive dive into my own personal healing journey. I am now an Usui Reiki master and Theta healing practitioner. My intention with my practice is to take you on a journey, into deeper connection with your body, energetic system, and heart source. To remember your sacred nature and to re-awaken your intrinsic ability to heal yourself.
I have a background in trauma-informed care, policy and advocacy work with at-risk youth and young adults. I have also done direct work with survivors of various types of interpersonal violence for over 10 years, some of which was done in a crisis response capacity.
Formally and informally throughout this time, on a one-to-one basis or in small group settings, I have held safe energetic space, crafted safe containers, for the expression and healing process of people who have experienced complex trauma. Walking alongside them in their healing journey.
Due to my experience, I have seen how trauma and wounding of all types can remain stored in our bodies, our nervous systems, and our energetic systems. This can create a layered effect to our everyday experience that we may not be fully aware of.
This has been my own personal experience, as well. All of the techniques I now offer to others, I first used, and honed, on myself during times of grief and nervous system burn-out.
Now, I bring the wealth of knowledge and experience gained from my work in trauma-informed care, and from soothing and rebuilding my own nervous system, into my energetic work and healing practices with you. Somatic exercises and practices have also been crucial to my own healing and nervous system recovery, and I tend to share these techniques in my sessions.
I am also deeply connected to nature, the elements, and the spirits of all of its creatures and inhabitants. I believe that all living beings have a life force/ life essence, to be honored and respected. I spend most of my free time outdoors, in sacred space with the trees, plants, water, earth, air. And with my dogs, exploring the nature trails, parks and preserves around the Central Texas area. Nature, nurture, and the creative process. This is my ritual, my daily ceremony. It’s nice to meet you.
In gratitude - Kim
