Welcome,

My name is Danielle, and I am the heart and soul behind Soul Embodied Reiki & Energy Healing

My personal journey has been wild, messy, beautiful, and magical – to say the least.

As a Reiki practitioner and intuitive energy healer, I have been dedicated to the path of healing and spiritual growth since 2017. After working a “normal” corporate job in my early and mid-twenties, I found myself at a crossroads, deep in introspection. My life seemed to be falling apart – I was in a toxic relationship, stuck in an unfulfilling career, and had struggled with a serious eating disorder and lack of self-love for over a decade.

In November 2017, I made a decision that changed everything: I quit my job, ended my relationship, sold most of my belongings, and left my hometown with a one-way ticket to Australia in search of meaning, healing, and authentic connection. Despite feeling lost and broken, this moment became the catalyst for my spiritual awakening.

Spiritual Awakening

My six-month escape plan turned into two years, during which I lived and worked at an ashram and yoga community. This experience ignited a desire to learn more about holistic healing, and I began traveling the world, exploring and studying various healing modalities, including yoga, meditation, energy healing, sound healing, vocal activation, conscious breathing, plant medicine, and physical embodiment/somatic practices.

In 2022, I lived and worked at an Ayahuasca retreat center in the Sacred Valley of Peru, where I deepened my understanding of shamanism and healing with plant medicine. My experience was life changing, and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. However, a particularly challenging journey left me in a state of fear and disconnection for years afterwards, as I struggled to fully integrate and regulate my nervous system.

Discovering Reiki

In response to my challenges, I felt called to connect with a gentler, more holistic approach to healing – not only for myself, but also for others. 

I realized that true healing is deeply intertwined with our emotional, energetic, and spiritual well-being. No amount of yoga, plant medicine, or therapy can bring us back to a state of inner peace if we don’t address the root cause of our energetic imbalance. 

This understanding led me to Reiki.

In 2023 I became a Usui Level I and II and Shamanic Reiki practitioner. Then, in 2024, I became a Usui Holy Fire III Karuna Reiki Master and a Shamanic Reiki Master.

Learning Reiki was like having a switch turned on for me. Everything began to fall into place, and life just felt…easier. More aligned, authentic, and light. 

Through Reiki, I was able to restore and regulate my nervous system, relieve my anxiety and reconnect with a deep sense of inner peace. It empowered me to step into a life of joy, abundance, connection, and purpose. 

I witnessed firsthand how impactful Reiki can be, providing profound healing for the mind, body, and spirit.

My love affair with Reiki aside, I knew I had to share this healing modality with others in as many ways as possible. This is why I offer both in-person and distance healings, and have also started a YouTube channel to reach a wider audience. The more people who connect with this healing energy, the better. As we heal ourselves, we heal the world; as we heal the world, we heal ourselves.

In my free time, I love long walks in nature, connecting with my body through various movement practices, reading, singing, creating YouTube videos, traveling the world, and spending time with loved ones.

My Approach & Intention

Soul Embodied Reiki and Energy Healing was born from the intention of guiding you back home to your truest self – your inner healer

The essence of who you are is truly magical. You are your own healer and have the capacity to transform your life. My hope is to remind you of this truth, not only through my work but by sharing my story and reminding you that love is the strongest medicine there is.

My approach to healing is intuitive and integrative, allowing me to combine various modalities – including Reiki, Shamanic healing, sound healing, and intuitive coaching – to support your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
