About Me

I am a certified Reiki Master Practitioner, and holistic energy healing is my passion. Peaceful Reiki Healing was created to provide a safe, welcoming space where individuals can heal, transform, and reconnect with their true selves.

My approach to Reiki is rooted in the belief that healing should be compassionate, gentle, and enlightening. I blend ancient wisdom with modern techniques to support the mind, body, and spirit, honoring each person’s unique journey and energy. My practice follows the traditional Reiki teachings developed by Dr. Mikao Usui.

I have been practicing Reiki for over five years and hold a Master-level certification, having trained under another Reiki Master at the Hamburg Healing Center NY. Over the years, I have worked with many clients and currently volunteer once a month at the Orchard Park Senior Center NY. I offer sessions at Santosha Holistic Center in Williamsville, NY, where I practice several days a week.

In addition to my Reiki practice, I am an artist with over 45 years of experience. I am self-taught in both traditional and abstract art and work primarily with oils and acrylics. I also hold a degree in Interior Design from Villa Maria College of Buffalo, NY. My artistic background deeply influences my Reiki work, especially in the way I connect with energy, color, and intuition.

Outside of my practice, I enjoy spending time outdoors hiking and biking, practicing yoga, painting, as well as crafting and creative exploration. I was born and raised in Buffalo, New York, and I bring that grounded, community-centered spirit into every session.

My mission is to embrace each healing experience with care and intention, helping clients release what no longer serves them and move forward in a peaceful, healthy, and balanced way.


“I had my first reiki session ever and it was wonderful! I had very little knowledge of reiki or it’s benefits but Carolyn took the time to explain everything to me so thoroughly. I could feel the energy as she was near my feet but never touched them-the heat I was feeling was real! I would highly recommend a reiki treatment and will be going as much as I can. Thank you Carolyn!”

“Reiki has helped open my ear that was closed when I was sick, assisted in helping my neck pain and calmed stressful times. I find inner peace in the quiet meditation as a busy mom of three and I enjoy knowing what my chakras are and where my energy is high/low etc. Carolyn who is the Reiki Master was especially good at explaining the colors associated with my energy in an actual drawing (I was able to keep!) and answering all my questions. Some examples of what I learned was that my energy was running like water (blue) from my head to my feet, that I stand tall in my own power (yellow) and that my “3rd eye” needed to be opened that she was able to do for more energy flow. I believe in holistic means of wellness, energy in our body and the world, and needing a peaceful mind in the busy regular days. I recommend Peaceful Reiki Healing to anyone who needs a moment of peace, a quiet meditation, has an unanswered question, and likes to learn more about themselves. Thank you.”
