Some people describe what I do as Reiki “work.” I describe it as Reiki “love.” That’s because animals have had a home in my heart for all of my life.
Growing up in Brazil, I surrounded myself with pets and wildlife, books and friends. Yet despite the beauty of my country and the support of my family, I always knew my path would take me elsewhere. After being in the Bay Area for so long, now in Nevada County, I have found the animal-loving community I had for so long been seeking.

I’m a Level II Reiki practitioner, trained by Kathleen Prasad, co-founder of Animal Reiki Source. I am also a regular participant in local meditation circles and Reiki shares — holding a healing space for companion animals, wild animals, and animals in the care of rescue organizations.
My Reiki practice has taken me to such wonderful places for healing as The Gentle Barn (Santa Clarita, CA),
Pregnant Mare Rescue (Watsonville, CA), Animal Place (Grass Valley, CA), Horses Healing Hearts (Danville,CA) and BrightHaven (Sebastapol, CA).
Yet my journey is just beginning.

I am in Penn Valley and I NEVER charge for the first visit, if it is the adjacent areas of Penn Valley, CA. 
The animal is always in control of the time, but usually my sessions take between 30 and 45 minutes. 

If you’d like to learn more about Reiki or whether I might be a good match for your animal(s),
please feel free to contact me.
