I’m Emily — a Usui Reiki Master Teacher, Celtic Reiki Practitioner, and lifelong musician. For years, I toured North America in a VW bus, playing folk rock and witnessing firsthand how music moves people. How it lifts spirits, holds grief, softens anxiety. It has always felt like medicine.

Music has been my study and my steady companion — a way I’ve made sense of the world for as long as I can remember. Over time, I began to see how sound itself could help people heal. How vibration could settle the body, soften the edges. Energy work came later, and it opened something deeper in me. Quietly, but profoundly.

I’d known about Reiki for years, but when my mom was in hospice care, I experienced its impact in a new way. Reiki helped her rest. It brought peace into the room. Something shifted—not just for her, but for all of us in my family. I left that experience knowing I had to learn this work. I started training in Palm Springs, California, and later continued my studies in New England with a teacher I’ve known for over 20 years.

At the same time, I was working in corporate America, leading marketing efforts for major brands like Opry Entertainment. I got burnt out fast. Everyone around me was too. I began bringing Reiki and sound into the office. A bowl here. A short session there. I watched what happened when people slowed down. I saw how even a few minutes of presence could make something soften.

Now I offer Reiki and sound healing more fully—through one-on-one sessions, group experiences, and workplace offerings. It’s a blend of everything I’ve lived: music, energy, care, and a deep belief in the quiet, powerful ways we come back to ourselves.

You don’t need to believe in anything. Just come as you are, and let’s see what unfolds.
