Healing that feels both spiritual and embodied.

This work isn't about fixing, it's about being met where you are.

Each session is guided by what's present in the moment, blending Reiki, sound healing, hypnotherapy, and intuitive support in a way that allows the body to soften and the mind to settle.

The Lightness of Being is built on the belief that healing begins when you feel safe enough to soften. There is no rigid structure and no one-size-fits-all approach, only intentional, responsive care that meets you where you are.

Kate's Path

Rooted in devotion, shaped by study, and guided by lived experience.

For years, Reiki was quietly calling Kate long before she fully said yes to it. Even with that inner pull, she was initially skeptical, but once she experienced Reiki for herself, everything shifted. It supported her healing in profound ways, expanded her perspective, and deepened her connection to who she truly is.

That experience led her to devote herself fully to the path of healing, study, and service. Today, her work supports women in reconnecting to themselves beneath the noise, conditioning, and patterns they've been carrying.

Kate is a Reiki Master in both Usui Ryoho and Holy Fire®, with advanced training in sound healing, clinical hypnotherapy, regression work, and yoga. Combined with her background in psychology, education, and community-centered healing, her approach is both intuitive and grounded, spiritual without losing structure, and deeply personal without ever becoming performative.
