✨ Let Me Help You SHINE

Hi, I’m Andrea — Reiki Master Teacher, Aroma Reiki™ founder, and transformational coach. I help sensitive souls and emerging leaders align with their purpose, heal from within, and thrive in life and business.

From improving sleep and focus to launching your dream business, my mission is to guide you in creating meaningful change — so you can rise, radiate, and SHINE.

Let’s connect and elevate your wellness journey, together.

Teacher. Healer. Coach.

 

📚 From Classroom to Healing Space

Teaching has always been part of my soul’s path. I began as a 4th-grade teacher and later became an instructional coach and national consultant, guiding educators across the country.

But it was my own healing journey — through fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, gut issues, and emotional burnout — that shifted my path from education to transformation.

As I discovered the power of inner healing through Reiki, aromatherapy, and spiritual practice, my mission evolved: to support others in reclaiming their health, purpose, and light. Today, I blend my love of teaching with intuitive healing to help others grow, heal, and SHINE from within.

 

 

💫 Guiding You Back to Wholeness

With years of experience supporting women on their healing path, I help clients reconnect with their inner strength and align with their soul purpose.

When the mind, body, emotions, and spirit fall out of balance, it can lead to overwhelm or hopelessness. My work focuses on restoring harmony through a powerful blend of life coaching, Reiki, chakra healing, and therapeutic essential oils.

Whether in private sessions or group programs, I guide you in releasing what’s holding you back — so you can feel more peace, purpose, and joy from the inside out.

🌟 My Story: From Pain to Inner Peace

In 2003, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Chronic pain, fatigue, sleep issues, gut imbalances, and hormonal struggles left me exhausted and disconnected — physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Like many, I turned to medications and coping mechanisms, but nothing truly healed me.

One night, through tears and prayer, I was guided to search “nutritional medicine.” That moment changed everything.

What followed was a soul-led journey into holistic healing — including Reiki, plant-based nutrition, essential oils, chakra balancing, and deep spiritual reconnection. Over time, I not only reversed my symptoms but found a renewed sense of vitality, clarity, and joy I hadn’t known in years.

Reiki became my turning point. It illuminated buried pain and opened the door to deep healing. The Reiki principles — now embodied in my SHINE philosophy — became my compass for wholeness.

Today, I am symptom-free, medication-free, and more vibrant than I was in my twenties. My mission is to guide others to activate their own healing power and reconnect with the light within.

Welcome to The SHINE Sanctuary of Healing Arts — a place of transformation, truth, and coming home to yourself.

🌟 A Little More About Me...

I was born on Christmas Day during a full moon, and I've always felt a deep, personal connection with Jesus and His teachings.

At 25, I underwent surgery to remove two large ovarian cysts (thankfully benign), followed by years of navigating fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, leaky gut, SIBO, and painful menstrual cycles due to fibroids. At my lowest, I relied on prescription medications just to get through the day — until I began my own holistic healing journey.

That path led me to Reiki, essential oils, and the chakra system — and ultimately to write my best-selling book, The Chakra Activation Method, and create the companion Chakra Oils Oracle Deck.

I hold a Master’s in Education, am a National Board Certified Teacher (NBCT), a Usui and Lightarian Reiki Master Teacher, and a certified transformational coach. I’ve worked as a literacy fellow and educational consultant with nonprofit organizations, and I bring over a decade of experience designing and facilitating virtual learning — both in education and holistic healing.

I’m passionate about the power of essential oils for emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being (yes, I have a diffuser in nearly every room!).

Today, I live on the beautiful Seacoast of New Hampshire with my amazing husband and our sweet fur-baby, Otto. Every day, I feel deep gratitude for this life — and for the incredible clients I get to serve. Watching them awaken, heal, and SHINE is one of my greatest joys.

🐾 I Can’t Forget About Otto

We adopted Otto in 2020, and he’s been such a special part of our lives ever since. It took time for him to adjust — those first few days were all about decompression, helping him feel safe, loved, and at home.

Otto had a rough start. He spent the first few months of his life very ill, on IV medication, and shuffled between shelters and foster homes. According to his paperwork, he was just 24 hours away from being euthanized. And now — he’s healthy, thriving, and deeply loved.

I used many of the same healing practices that helped me — daily Reiki, calming essential oils, and a lot of gentle patience.

Otto is independent and slow to open up. He still startles easily and shows signs of trauma that linger from his early experiences. But he teaches me every day about resilience, presence, and the quiet power of unconditional love. His journey reminds me that healing takes time — and that safety, love, and trust are sacred gifts we get to give and receive.

“Alignment is a form of remembrance, for deep within each of us is recognition and remembrance of who we really are.”

 

🌟 I’m All About…

Helping individuals remember who they truly are.
I guide my clients in breaking free from self-sabotage and limiting beliefs, so they can realign the physical and spiritual, reconnect with their soul’s deepest calling, and walk their path with clarity, confidence, and ease.

It’s about living in flow — with freedom, purpose, and power.

 

🚫 I’m Not About…
Forcing awakening or convincing anyone to change.
True transformation begins with willingness. I can’t help those who aren’t ready to shine light on their patterns, release self-sabotaging habits, or take full responsibility for their healing.

I hold space for those who are ready — to do the inner work, embrace the truth, and rise into who they’re meant to be.
