Caitlin Cunningham (she/they) is certified in Usui Reiki and a Licensed Esthetician. They practice emotional regulation techniques both from a trauma informed perspective and through the jargon, and knowledge she's adapted from her own experience within DBT. They offer sessions at $90/hour. Caitlin's metaphysical education began in 2019, and by 2021 they received their Reiki attunement from urban shaman Kukata Kali. Caitlin is known for her powerful energy healing, numerous clients claiming they have never experienced anything like it. She utilizes several healing modalities ranging from sound cleansing, cranial touch therapy, and mindful breath in both her reiki and esthetics services. Caitlin then graduated from St. Louis Aesthetics Institute and attained their Esthetics License. Driven by her desire to unveil the beauty within her clients, they uses their extensive skincare knowledge to heal the largest organ in the body. By considering a client’s lifestyle, skin regimine, and overall health, she carefully curates the perfect skincare routine. Combined with the unique touch of energy therapy, the skin and soul are left cleansed, pampered, and glowing.

Ursula Libra Lady is a Licensed Heaven on Earth reiki practitioner, soon to be Licensed Isis Reiki practitioner and Licensed Heaven on Earth Reiki Mother. They offer reiki healing, tarot reading, and life coaching. All Tarot readings are a $1 per minute and most last an hour. Reiki sessions are $50 for 30 minutes and $100 for an hour. Most sessions do not go over 1 hour, but are continued sessions over weeks at a time. In my practice, I use my synesthesia and light magic along with elemental magic to rebalance the body and chakra systems. I can see through my eyes where energy imbalances lie with colors, and a lot of what my practice is accessing the magic and power already inside of my own clients by moving colors around in their body to heal different wounds, be it physical or emotional. My specialties lie primarily in the lower half of the body, working with the root, sacral, and solar plexus chakra where we hold our fear, guilt, shame, body curses, and ancestral knowledge and memory of past lives. In session I will use energy healing and reiki but also incorporate other elementals such as burning different herbs, using different crystals, sound healing with tuning forks or singing bowls as well as speaking light language, and channeling information from spirit to client. Sometimes in session I will also pull cards for people to give them clarity about what the energy healing is going to be like, but also am an experienced tarot and oracle reader and offer those services separately. Most of my clients come to me for healing from sexual and gendered trauma. I am very much considered a death doula and not just for physical death, although that is something I have intuitively practiced before for both human and animal, but for mental, emotional, and spiritual death. I help my clients release the energies, entities, implants, beliefs, and curses that no longer serve them and bring them to transformation and empowering rebirth. I practice a new style of reiki called Heaven on Earth, which is a deep remembering of your own ancestral practices of energy healing. You divinate and create your own style of energy healing and all of the work that you provide comes from what you have intuitively channeled. You basically are channeling your own style of reiki energy healing. What Heaven on Earth practitioners do is not technically reiki, but closer to shamanism and astral journeying. It is healing energy not through specific symbols, but through whatever style comes naturally to you. You go through an initiation process that you set up for yourself through a ritual and guided meditation, and allow your memories and magic be shown to you. I have been a certified Heaven on Earth reiki practitioner since April of 2022 but I have been practicing magic and space holding for people my entire life. I have been in training and coaching for energetic healing since March of 2022, underneath my reiki mother Amira Barakat Al-Baladi or Sarada Muladhara, the root chakra goddess. I have taken many of her classes that are centered around breaking generational curses, unlocking personal power, trusting in your magic, accessing past lives, healing sexual energy, rebalancing masculinity and femininity, reparenting and healing your inner child, and many more. I have been in 12 weeks of one on one coaching, learning how to strengthen and deepen my energetic healing practices for myself and others. I am currently in a program called Root Lock, a 6 month process where I go on to become a Reiki Mother (instead of master) which grants me the ability to teach my own collective and clients to access their own ancestral healing abilities.

Emily Arnold (she/her) offers reiki and other spiritual modalities (tarot cards, oracle cards, affirmations, manifesting, mediation and mindfulness, visualization, energy work), art and music (sound healings), body movement and nutrition, journaling and writing prompts, CBT, and mind mapping at $75/hour. In my opinion, community, connection, and healing, is at its upmost importance, and helping to create and support that, especially in the queer community, gives me a great sense of purpose and fulfillment. In my personal training career, holistic and mental healthcare go hand in hand. I work with each client on not only how to move their body safely, but also how to enrich their overall well-being with an integrative approach. I gained expertise in this way by completing a program through IIN.
