Anita is a Level III Certified Reiki Master Practitioner. She is also a Language Arts teacher and holds a M.A.Ed. and Rank 1, Learning and Behavior Disorders and a BA, English Literature from Eastern Kentucky University. She has worked in the Madison County School system since 2000. She has studied a variety of healing modalities and has attended numerous conferences featuring notable speakers, such as C. Norman Shealy, M.D.

Anita discovered her true calling and passion in 2012 after years of dedicated meditation and prayer practice during which her hands became extremely hot and she could sense and feel her own energy field and the energy fields of others. This led to her “discovery” of energy healing and Reiki. Anita humbly considers this ability to be “a gift” that should be shared with others. Using her hands, she can pinpoint blocked or slowed energy in the body’s meridians and chakras. She then can work to create a positive change in the client’s energy system. Results can range from deep, pleasant and relaxed feelings in the body to spontaneous healing events.

Anita’s other interests include reading, hiking, writing, nature, yoga, Zumba, crystals, meditation, nutrition, bike riding, beaches, angels, all things metaphysical, and striving each day to find joy and achieve the full potential of her higher purpose.
