I have been studying and practicing Reiki since 2002. I began my Master Level training in 2004, and am a member of the International Association of Reiki Practitioners (IARP). I received my bachelor's degree in Social Work at West Chester University. As a Social Worker, I have worked as a counselor for children and adolescents, Domestic Violence survivors, and people living with HIV and AIDS. I have been trained under the mentorship of Elizabeth Frediani in Chakra Healing with Applied Integration. I have been interested in holistic healing for many years, and have been studying many aspects of wellness in addition to my Reiki, Chakra Clearing and Social Work practice. My areas of study include herbal remedies, the use of stones and crystals, spiritual transformation, meditation, yoga, chakras and the energy system, the practice of non-violence, and methods of cleansing and purification.
I am a Registered Dietitian and Licensed Nutritionist-Dietitian in the state of PA. I received my bachelor’s degree from the University of Vermont and am a member of the American Dietetic Association and the Gerontological Nutritionists practice group. I have over 10 years experience in Foodservice Management and Dietetics. I am a certified food manager in Chester County and a Serve Safe Food Safety instructor. My interests in nutrition include wellness, nutrition for vegetarians, food safety and nutrition for aging and geriatrics. My philosophy in practice is to help clients eat for lifelong health, not just diet to lose weight. I am trained also to use nutrition to treat certain disease states such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease and GI disorders. I work for Nutrition Management Services Company at St. Martha Manor in Downingtown, PA. I also offer nutrition consulting in private practice.
