Beyond the Physical: What I See During an Intuitive Energy Healing Session

I've always been drawn to tuning into people's energy fields. Combining Reiki with my ability to observe and read the human energy field, I work with clients to uncover what's getting in the way of their healing, whether that's trapped emotion, grief, or old patterns that have become deeply ingrained in the body and spirit over time. Left unaddressed, these blocks can show up as pain, illness, or injury. During a session, I help you see and understand what's holding you back, and help you move it so it can finally release.

I get asked often what this actually looks like in practice, what I mean when I say I "read" someone's energy. So I wanted to take a little time to explain what makes this work unique, and what I'm actually tuning into during a session.

Each Session Starts the Same Way

Every session begins with the same first step: I consciously set aside my ego and become a clear, open vessel, allowing universal life force energy to flow through me and into the areas where it's needed most. This is the foundation everything else is built on. I'm not analyzing or interpreting from my own perspective, I'm making space to receive what's actually there.

Seeing in Color

One of the most distinct parts of this work is that I see color. As I tune into a person's energy field, colors show up, sometimes bright and spinning, sometimes dull or muted, sometimes stagnant in one spot. Color tells me a lot. A vibrant, clear color in an area usually means that part of a person's energy is healthy and flowing well. A dull, murky, or slow-moving color often points to something that needs attention, an old emotion, a stuck pattern, something the body has been holding onto.

Chakra Energy

Chakras are the energy centers of the body, and I'm able to perceive how each one is functioning, whether it's spinning freely and in balance, or whether it's inverted, weakened, or blocked in some way. Each chakra holds its own kind of information. The throat chakra, for example, often relates to voice, trust, and self-expression. The root chakra often relates to safety and feeling grounded and supported. When I tune into someone's chakras, I'm looking at how each one is spinning, its color, and how it's communicating with the layers of energy around it.

The Seven Layers of the Human Energy Field

Beyond the chakras, I also perceive the layers of a person's energy field, the subtle layers that surround the body beyond what's physically visible. This idea of a layered energy field isn't something I invented. Barbara Brennan, a former NASA physicist who became a well-known healer and author, has written extensively about this in her books, describing the human energy field as made up of seven distinct layers, each one associated with a different aspect of a person's physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual experience. Reading her work was validating for me, it gave language and structure to things I had already been perceiving on my own for years.

Within these layers, I can often perceive where injury, illness, or old pain may be residing, either in a place that mirrors exactly where someone feels discomfort in their physical body, or in another place in their body that is signaling a way of healing.

Objects and Messages That Feel Stuck

Sometimes what I perceive isn't a color or a layer, but something that feels like an object, a dense or foreign pocket of energy that doesn't seem to belong. It might feel like something that entered a person's field during a difficult experience and simply stayed, dormant, waiting to be seen. Other times what comes through are messages, words, images, or a felt sense of something a person needs to hear or understand about themselves. Part of my work is translating what I'm perceiving into something a person can actually use in their healing.

Energy Flow

Ultimately, all of this comes back to flow. Energy is meant to move. When it's flowing freely, a person tends to feel more like themselves, more grounded, more at ease in their body. When energy becomes stuck, through old trauma, unexpressed emotion, or patterns we've carried for years, that stagnation is often where physical and emotional symptoms begin to show up. During a session, I receive messages, visions, and intuitive guidance from spiritual guides, which help direct the healing process and bring clarity to whatever is ready to surface and release, and help restore that natural flow.

A Space to Be Seen

My sessions are deeply personal, guided by intuition, calling upon the wisdom of the universe throughout the process. The result is a space where you feel genuinely seen and supported as you move toward becoming more fully yourself.

Whether you're navigating physical pain, emotional heaviness, or simply feeling called to explore energy healing for the first time, I meet you exactly where you are. Choose a 30-minute session for gentle realignment or a 60-minute deep healing. Know that at every session, you'll be held in a safe, compassionate space to reconnect with yourself and receive exactly what your spirit is ready for.

This is not just a treatment, it's a return to wholeness.
