Nicole is a certified Karuna Reiki Master and an affiliate member of the International Center for Reiki Training.

She began her journey as a lighting designer for live performance traveling the world to create works for dance, opera, and theater. When the pandemic hit, and every performance venue across the globe closed, she began a healing journey that took her inwards. Years of meditation and reflection revealed that it was time to be of service. Since then she has moved from depicting light onstage to bringing light to the people.

She has completed 4 units of Clinical Pastoral Education as a Hospital Chaplain with New York Presbyterian Queens Hospital and Stony Brook University Hospital.

While completing her training as a chaplain she certified in all levels of Reiki training with Reiki masters William Lee Rand and Jissel Ravelo.

She is also currently enrolled in Gabor Mate’s Compassionate Inquiry Professional Training Program. This is described by Gabor Mate as: ‘a psychotherapeutic approach focused on uncovering unconscious dynamics and hidden beliefs that contribute to mental and physical illness, addiction, and other struggles.’

Her intention for her Reiki service is to fold together the experience / instincts of an artist, a chaplain, and a student of Compassionate Inquiry to support to each client’s healing journey. She holds in her heart Gabor Mate’s premise that everyone, regardless of age or background, has the innate ability to bring themselves back to to that place of wholeness. A place where peace and calm allow direct communication with ones gut instincts. This intention places compassion, empathetic listening, and love above all else.
