Receiving Reiki from Val has been one of the most excellent forms of energy work that I have experienced. Val is incredibly professional, talented, and lovingly gentle. Her Reiki treatments leave me feeling amazingly grounded, relaxed, and incredibly peaceful; often lasting for days afterwards. As a professional hypnotherapist, I believe that it is our responsibility, as energy practitioners, to do all we can in order to stay in balance with our own energy fields. After receiving profound personal results from Val’s services, I have now chosen to advance my current Reiki skills with Val’s Usui Reiki certification training. She reveals her class by offering insightful, reflective healing gifts as a practitioner and teacher. This has been a very rewarding experience and I’m extremely grateful to Val for all she shares with us. I highly recommend her Reiki sessions and\/or Reiki training.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to have trained with Val to become a 3rd Degree Reiki Practitioner. From the very beginning, her genuine and authentic approach made Reiki 1, 2 and 3 not just courses but a true spiritual journey altogether.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her kindness, knowledge, and profound gift as a teacher created an environment of trust and growth, where I felt supported every step of the way. Val didn\u2019t just teach me the techniques; she opened up an adventure of self-discovery, personal healing, and transformation.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her ability to impart wisdom in such a heartfelt and accessible way has had a lasting impact on my life. I feel more connected to my own spiritual path and empowered to share Reiki with others. This has truly been one of the most transformative experiences of my life, and I am forever grateful to Val for her guidance and mentorship.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Val’s healing work is intuitive, loving, and beautiful. Her hands are nothing less than magic, finding the areas needing tender care and delivering energy that is soothing and gentle. After her sessions I have experienced relief from physical symptoms as well as released energetic blocks and soothed heartache. I cannot recommend her enough for anyone seeking loving, healing care.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Val\u2019s Reiki 1 and 2 classes have been both enlightening and empowering. Her style of teaching is thorough and thoughtful, combing history, schematics and practice. She leaves room for discussion and practice of new skills, allowing for unique and personal experiences. For someone who came with no experience in this area, I came away with tools and a practice, for healing in myself and others. So grateful.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve had the pleasure of being Val’s student through all 3 Reiki trainings. Val is somebody who not only teaches and performs Reiki, but she truly embodies this loving, healing energy in her whole being. There is never any judgement. She is incredibly kind, sincere, and compassionate. The way she even organizes free Reiki events occasionally to her students is just another testament to how genuine she is. I am forever grateful to have gained an amazing teacher and a wonderful friend. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Val is a wonderful healer and Reiki practitioner. My sessions with her have been nothing short of amazing. She is kind and intuitive and has a very grounding energy. I am so happy that we had the chance to work together!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Val is amazing. I took all three Reiki classes through her. I’m very happy that I was able to take classes through my local metaphysical store in person during the pandemic. For the Reiki level 2 class, I made connections with friends that are invaluable. The level 3 class was so special and tight knit and a very memorable experience. We carpooled together to the ferry, then went to the Earth Sanctuary. I learned Reiki so that I could help others heal. I truly felt like I was in alignment with my purpose learning this skill. The tools I’ve learned have been a worthy investment. Val showed me that I could heal myself with Reiki, which has come in clutch in many different situations. Whether it be a stomach ache or headache, even heartburn, reiki works better than pain relievers, and it is safer, too. Thank you, Val, for being the conduit and teacher of Reiki. The Reiki Share Groups have been life changing, as well. Love you so much Val. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m so glad I had the good fortune to come across Val’s Chakra classes. I especially loved the way she connected the energy of each chakra to the physical counterparts. That has proved to be so useful to me. All of her classes inspired me to continue in Reiki and use it in my massage practice.<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you so much for all you have given, for hosting amazing circles, and everything you have done. You have given the gift of Reiki to so many and made such a profound impact on many lives! I wouldn’t have become a bodyworker without you! <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Val is a knowledgable, skilled and kind Reiki practitioner. She listens well, focuses on my needs and is willing to answer any questions. She is a kind healer, and teacher. When she says that she will follow up with information, she does. Reiki sessions with Val helped me feel better. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Val\u2019s knowledge and extensive support, as well as her warm and nurturing nature provided a rich and safe environment for me to learn and grow in my Reiki journey. I have immense respect and gratitude for her as a person and a teacher.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I trusted Val after meeting satisfied Reiki clients and was referred to her to complete a Reiki Master training class. I am so happy that I did! I had a previous Reiki Master training back in 2014 and wanted to brush up on my skills, as well as absorb the knowledge that Val had to teach. I also referred my partner to her for all three Reiki course trainings offered. We both left the master course happy and feeling supported from the offerings she gave in class. The training was well-rounded with plenty of hands on practice, we left with resources to enhance our skills at home and she has offered support and guidance afterwards, as well. Val really puts her heart and soul into what she offers. I appreciate all that she was able to teach us. She is very inspiring. I will definitely refer others to take her courses!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Name is Hassan Finch Jr. and I\u2019m a proud graduate of Val\u2019s Reiki training program. I met Val through my partner and she insisted that I take Val\u2019s Reiki training courses. I was nervous at first because my knowledge of Reiki was minimal but I had experienced Reiki once and it was life changing. Val has the most vibrant but calming energy and she accommodated us students in every way to make us comfortable. Her teaching style was very gentle and her knowledge of Reiki is extensive due to many years of studying and practice. I learned so much about the history and origins of Reiki in the first class, as well as the basic hand placements and symbols. The second class was great as well and we learned the distant Reiki symbols and how to send Reiki to our past selves, future self and others that are present and passed on. The 3rd Reiki class at the Earth Sanctuary was my favorite because we had the class at the cabin and we also walked around the beautiful landscape and witnessed the amazing energy in the area. The attunement process was very memorable and words can\u2019t describe how it felt to gain access to the Reiki energy and receive this access in this setting. I\u2019ll never forget it and I\u2019m so grateful for Val and her kindred spirit. I\u2019d highly recommend anyone interested in becoming a Reiki practitioner to take Val\u2019s class because she is so genuine and only wants the best for everyone! I\u2019m excited for my journey as a Reiki practitioner and can\u2019t wait to help others in the way Val helped me!  Thank you, Val. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
