Maria has always been drawn to energy work and healing. In 2011 she was looking for a modality to support her then pre-teenage daughters as well as her horse, and she found Reiki. She has received her Level I and Level II Attunements. After practicing for a few years, she connected with a mentor to study Meditation, Mediumship, Animal Communication, and Card Readings.
In 2016, Maria began teaching Meditation to the staff at Chester Academy once a week before school. The following year they hired her to meditate with students in grades 1-8 who had anxiety and attention shortages, which she enjoyed immensely.
In 2017, Maria’s daughter sustained a serious concussion. After months of unsuccessful attempts to restore complete function, a friend recommended Bowenwork, and they were eager to try it. Her daughter experienced so much relief from the first session that Maria knew she wanted to become a Practitioner. Having completed 3+ years of rigorous study, hundreds of practice hours, CPR certification, and case studies, she is thrilled to be a certified Bowenwork Practitioner effective August 1, 2021.
During quarantine in 2020, Maria began to study the Tarot more consistently, and felt drawn to begin doing readings. She enjoys helping clients find clarity by connecting with the cards.
When she isn’t with a Bowenwork or Reiki client, teaching Meditation, reading cards, or planning a wedding ceremony, Maria loves spending time with her husband and their daughters, riding her horses, exercising, and gardening.
