Healing Touch Workshops
Katie offers 1-on-1 training and a variety of group workshops that teach specific Healing Touch techniques for addressing health concerns and supporting wellness. Topics include first aid methods, pain relief, stress management, how to prevent burnout, preparing and recovering from surgery, energy balancing, children’s workshops, and more. Custom workshops for your group or organization are also available.

1-on-1 Training
Why individual training?
The idea of offering 1-on-1 training emerged as a culmination of many years of experience as a biology teacher and Healing Touch instructor, as well working with hundreds of clients in my ongoing energy healing practice of nearly 20 years.
What I came to realize was that there was never enough time at the end of a session to teach self care methods. With 1-on-1 training we can dedicate the full hour for you to learn and practice some powerful self-healing techniques tailored to your specific interests and needs.
Benefits of 1-on1 Training
Sessions provide an opportunity to enhance self-care and learn energy healing methods to help family and friends. These methods can be effective in:
- Alleviating physical symptoms such as pain, fatigue, and side-effects from medication
- Addressing emotional concerns related to anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and trauma
- Clearing limiting beliefs and achieving mental clarity, focus, and concentration
- Opening to spiritual connection and guidance
What can I expect from a 1-on-1 Session?
During your one-on-one training sessions (60 minutes) you will:
- Receive an in-depth explanation of the human energy system
- Participate in a guided meditation to assess your energy system and tune in to your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health.
- Identify your specific goals and intentions
- Learn one or more Healing Touch techniques, specifically chosen based on your interests and needs, that can be used on self, family, and friends
How much do 1-on-1 sessions cost?
60-minute one-on-one training sessions are $120.
