My path into Reiki and somatic healing began with a deep curiosity about the nervous system, suffering, and our innate capacity to return to peace. I am a trauma-informed Reiki Master, somatic practitioner, and educator devoted to integrating nervous system awareness with energy healing in a way that feels safe, ethical, and embodied.

I blend Usui and Holy Fire Reiki® with trauma-informed somatic principles and research-based approaches to stress regulation. For me, Reiki is not about bypassing pain, it’s about gently creating space for the body and heart to feel seen, understood, and supported. Healing unfolds when we feel safe enough to soften.

I work with professionals, therapists, and trauma survivors who are seeking grounded spiritual care, people who want depth without dogma, presence without pressure. In every session and training, I invite compassion, consent, and attuned listening to lead the way.

Through my writing, teaching, and one-on-one work, I am committed to bridging spirituality and nervous system science helping expand the conversation around trauma-informed energy healing across the country. Healing, to me, is a return to wholeness. A return to the present moment. A return to love.

I’ve completed studies in Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy through The Embody Lab, and I integrate this training into my Reiki practice with care and intention. Sessions prioritize consent, nervous system regulation, and meeting you where you are emotionally, physically, and energetically.

You don’t need to talk about your trauma, explain your history, or believe in anything specific for this work to be supportive. We move at your pace, with choice and collaboration at every step.

Training & Lineage

With over a decade of experience in Reiki and spiritual practice, I am trained in Usui Reiki and Holy Fire Reiki® and continue to deepen my work through ongoing study and reflection. I am an affiliate member of the International Center for Reiki Training (ICRT), and I approach this practice with care, integrity, and respect for the Usui Reiki lineage. Alongside this foundation, my training in Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy through The Embody Lab informs how I conduct sessions, with attention to nervous system safety, consent, and the natural pace of healing. My focus is not only on technique, but on creating a space where people feel genuinely supported and safe.

Words from our community

“As someone who suffers from chronic pain, I am always looking to try out practices that can bring relief to my nervous system and ease tension in my body. Daniel’s safe and calming presence made me comfortable trying out something new. What I experienced was something that felt truly self-generated…as though it was coming through me. It has been empowering to connect with my own energy in this way…so much that I decided to train and study Reiki with Daniel! I’m so grateful for all the positive ripple effects that have shown up in my life thanks to this gentle practice and Daniel’s wisdom & support.”

— Halle K.

“I didn’t know what to expect going into my first ever Reiki session with Daniel, but I felt instantly relaxed and cared for throughout the whole process. Through dealing with different energy centers, chakras, and having loving touch, I felt more expansive, cared for, and aligned with my body after our time together. I left feeling grateful for the ways I felt open and healed. Thank you so much, Daniel, for your time and commitment to my health and paying attention to what my body and spirit needed.”

— Annie U.
