Meet Chelsea

Hi! Thanks for stopping by — I'm so glad you're here.

I'm a Reiki Master Teacher, Certified Health Coach, and trauma-informed Yoga Nidra facilitator, and I believe healing happens when we nurture the whole person — mind, body, and soul. With a background in psychology, sociology, nutrition, health coaching, and movement, I blend science with spirituality and practical wellness tools with compassionate support. My mission is living passionately with presence, guiding others towards their inner light, truth, and healing, and cultivating life rooted in joy, nature, self-compassion, and meaningful connection.

​

How The Whole Self began

This work was born from my own journey. For years, I felt disconnected, overwhelmed, and unwell — I knew something needed to change, but I didn't know where to start.

​

Through nutrition, movement, mindfulness, emotional healing, and eventually Reiki, I began to rediscover myself and build a deeper relationship with my body, mind, and spirit. Along the way, I learned that healing isn't linear, and it doesn't come from focusing on just one part of ourselves — it happens when we address the whole self.

​

Discovering Reiki changed everything. It helped me become more grounded, deepen my connection with myself and others, and open space for healing on every level — physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. Through meditation, breathwork, and energy work, I'm still learning and growing every day, and I bring all of it into my practice today: a safe, compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can simply be as you are.

​

What we do together

At The Whole Self, you'll have access to holistic tools — Reiki, mindfulness practices, nervous system support, meditation, and coaching — to help you reconnect with yourself and move through life feeling more grounded, empowered, and whole.

Reiki for animals

As a lifelong animal lover, I believe healing isn't just for humans — our animal companions deserve support, balance, and compassionate care too. I offer Reiki for dogs and other animals, providing gentle energetic support through stress, anxiety, illness, recovery, aging, and life transitions, or simply to promote overall well-being. Animals are remarkably sensitive to energy and often respond beautifully to Reiki, settling into a calmer, more balanced state.

​

Whether your companion is adjusting to a new environment, recovering from surgery, or working through behavioral challenges, they deserve the same compassionate, holistic care we offer ourselves. It's an honor to support both animals and the people who love them on their healing journeys.

Healing isn't about becoming someone new. It's about coming home to yourself.​​
