WORKING TOGETHER
"Sometimes the longest journey we make is the sixteen inches from our heads to our hearts." ― Elena Avila
Hello, I'm Kristen and I've helped hundreds of people work through their personal pain and ease their suffering to find the relief and peace they seek. As the founder of Palo Alto Reiki, a certified Energy Healing Practitioner, Reiki Master, teacher, and intuitive guide, my mission is to create a sacred space for self healing. My purpose isn't to fix you, because you're not broken. No one is. My purpose is to remind you that you already have everything you need to help yourself: inner wisdom, personal power, self expression, capacity to love, creativity, a strong foundation, and divine guidance.
Personally, I am no stranger to pain. Throughout my life I have experienced and worked to overcome a traumatic childhood, toxic relationships, sexual assaults, eating disorders, miscarriages, years of infertility treatment, postpartum depression, and chronic anxiety. Just 5 years ago I suffered a life-altering accident which shattered my ankle and tibia, resulting in multiple surgeries, months of bed rest, and years of physical therapy to learn to walk again. It was during this physical recovery that I also experienced a spiritual discovery. In the years since the accident, I have embraced my lifelong intuitive and psychic gifts, extensively studied energy work and oracle cards, and remembered that I am a healer.
My personal struggles have served to inspire and teach me the universal lessons of perseverance, compassion, and love. It's from deep within my heart and soul that I offer Reiki Energy Healing and Intuitive Guidance to others suffering personal pain, so they too may grow and triumph from life's most difficult lessons.
