Will I be able to practice on other people after I finish my Reiki class?

When can I open my own practice and start taking on clients?

Is it okay to give psychic readings during a session on a client?

What kind of insurance do I need?

How do I guide my client through mental, emotional, spiritual crises?

How do I know if I am picking up on my client’s energy or am accessing my own energy?

How do I protect myself from my client’s energy?

When should I refer out?

How much information should I be sharing with my client?

What do I do when a client has PTSD?

How do I lead my clients into a meditative state?

How do I clear myself after a session?

So often we hear questions like these…and, we get it. We had the same ones.

The truth is this…..if you have taken a weekend Reiki class and have no other experience working with clients, jumping into a professional practice where you are taking on clients and charging money isn’t safe or ethical. It’s not safe for the client and it’s not safe for you. The reason it’s unsafe has nothing to do with esoterism. Energy healing, like any other healing modality, requires practice and it requires education and it requires a safe space. A safe space is held by a practitioner who is grounded in their practice and has knowledge and resources to support them.

We LOVE that you want to practice. We LOVE that you want to work with clients. And, we believe that energy healing is serious business and that to be effective, professional practitioners, we need effective, professional training.

We have created an 8-10 month practicum program to support you in this journey. The program will include in-person, supervised practicum work held at Pacifica Treatment Centre and in conjunction with Watari Counselling and Support Services.

The program will cover:

A variety of energy therapies (qi gong, meridian therapy, chakra therapy, hara healing, polarity balancing)

Therapeutic Dialogue (taught by a Registered Clinical Counsellor)

Energetic Anatomy

Basic Physiology

Energetic Defense Patterns (based on the work of Wilhelm Reich)

Some somatic processing work

Practitioner self-care (shadow work, inner child work and basic energy hygiene practices)

Setting up a practice

On Wednesday, September 7th at 7:00 pm, we will be hosting a Zoom Information session to share all the details of the program and to answer any questions you have. We would love to have you join us.
