I'm Laura (she/her) and I identify as a white woman of Italian and Celtic ancestry, currently residing on Stó:lō unceded land, the traditional territory of the Semá:th and Mathxwí First Nations. I'm a Certified Usui Reiki Master and Ritual Practitioner, and a member of the International Association of Reiki Practitioners. I'm also a Certified Birth and Labour Doula and trauma-informed secondary support for Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy. I'm passionate about companioning others on their journey with somatic presencing, compassionate witnessing, and unconditional positive regard. I'm also deeply invested in learning about anti-racist and anti-oppressive ways of being, and cultivating right relationship with our planet and its inhabitants. Before learning energy work, I completed an MA in Cultural, Social and Political Thought, and this training taught me to view healing from a holistic and systemic perspective. I strongly believe that reconnection with the body is an important step to reconciliation and learning healthy reconnection with all O/others. On my days off, I like magikal adventures in the woods with family, friends and familiars; singing loudly while driving, playing in different bands, poring over ancient and contemporary texts, and tending to outdoor garden sanctuaries.

I offer a free, 20 minute phone consultation to talk about your needs and wants and answer any questions your might have. The goal of this option is for us to connect before your first treatment so that you can determine if my services will be a good fit for your needs.
This session is for those who are new to SOMA Ritual Room and want to get a taste of what somatic Reiki can offer. This offering dedicates 1/2 of our time to discussing your journey and what areas you'd like to address with somatic Reiki, and the other half to a mini session where you'll get to meet with the energy of Usui Master Reiki and experience a somatic Reiki treatment at Soma Ritual Room.

This session uses Absentia (or distance) Reiki to offer the same benefits of Usui Master Reiki online, rather than in person. I will meet with you through our booking app video portal and you'll receive the benefits of a regular session online. We start with an initial consult to determine your areas of need followed by a singing bowl sound bath and Abstentia Reiki treatment, all from the comfort of your home.

A Usui Master Reiki Treatment begins with a short consultation to identify focus areas and answer any questions. All treatments are draped and clients have the option of remaining clothed or removing clothing, as they feel most comfortable. The treatment starts with cleansing the auric field using light breath work, guided meditation and singing bowl sound vibration. Once the space is cleared, the subtle energetic frequencies of Usui Reiki are offered to the client's body through intuitive touch (or without touch, if preferred). The treatment finishes with a final singing bowl cleanse to clear the body of any residual energies that were released during treatment and seal the treatment. After treatment is over, the session ends with a short check-in and any notes about aftercare for the client. 10% of your treatment will go towards funding marginalized communities such as BIPOC, queer, trans & differently abled folks who experience barriers to access, so that together, we can create equitable wealth and health distribution for all. If you identify with any of these groups, please contact Laura for available options.
