Meet Cassie

Hello! I’m a Level 2 Reiki Practitioner for animals & humans, and trained in the basics of Animal Communication with Reiki Master-Teacher Nancy Windheart.

My journey with Pet Reiki & Communication began the first time I experienced a meaningful session for my beloved senior cat who was very ill. Even though it was by phone, I could visibly see the immediate comfort and ease that this sharing of spiritual energy and intuitive communication brought him. After he passed over the rainbow bridge, I felt called to study both practices which in turn walked me very gently through my grief. My training stoked a lifelong yearning to engage with animals of all species for the mutual healing and deeper understanding of one another.

Since then I’ve experienced the holistic benefits of Reiki both as a practitioner and receiver. Over the years I’ve offered this supportive universal energy and intuitive communication with a widening circle of family, friends, and clients.

I’m also a librarian/archivist and spent 16 years recording the oral histories of dancers for the New York Public Library. As a lifelong dancer, meditator, authentic movement practitioner, and certified yoga teacher (200 hr), my mindfulness, listening, and embodied practices are the foundation of all my offerings.
