About iNFiNiOM
iNFiNiOM offer Usui Reiki Healing for all life forms.
​​​
From single-celled organisms, such as blooming blue-green algae, to fussy houseplants that need understanding; from our feathered and furry friends to the human family; and even the great giants of our oceans when they become stranded — my Reiki work has gradually grown to embrace the wonderfully diverse forms of life with which we share our world.
The Gift of the Name
iNFiNiOM is the name I was given for my Reiki practice and the work that has grown from it.
The name 'iNFiNiOM' was given to me by my SGT — my Spiritual Guide Team. The following week, I received the further message that the name had been “infused with light.” ✴︎
As I began to explore the name, I loved discovering the different meanings within it.
Infinity is there — the familiar figure-of-eight symbol ထ. To me, it represents interconnectedness, the eternal cycles of life and death, and something without beginning or end. It also speaks to our own potential for healing and for change throughout body, mind and spirit.
Then there is OM — the Western transliteration of the sacred Sanskrit sound Aum. Within Hindu spiritual traditions, Aum is understood as a primordial sound associated with creation and the essence of existence. I love that a sound with such an ancient association with life should have appeared within the name I was given.
And tucked into iNFiNiOM are three x letter I. For me, these have come to represent the third eye — the spiritual energy centre traditionally associated with intuition and inner perception. This has particular meaning for me because intuition has become such an important part of the way I practise Reiki.
The infinity symbol therefore became part of the iNFiNiOM logo. It also found its way into my Reiki practice: before beginning a treatment, I draw the infinity symbol gently above the client's body.
So a name that was initially given to me has gradually revealed layers of personal meaning that reflect much of what iNFiNiOM has become — life, connection, intuition and the possibility of healing.​​
MY BACKGROUND
When clients start searching for a practitioner, I know it can be helpful to read about their background and grasp a sense of whether this person might be the right match. So here's my story and I will share my relevant qualifications and traning too.
I live in southern England. I love time in nature, animals, photography, art and craft activities, exercise, meditation, and anything to do with health and wellbeing. I enjoy music, books, films, genealogy, and spending time with friends.
My personal healing, spiritual path and lifelong affinity with animals brought me to Reiki healing. I had been intending to take the Reiki attunements and training since my 20s. This was inspired through my many experiences of receiving hands-on healing since age 16, plus several healers commented that while I was receiving healing, that I was also healing them. I also noticed how animals felt calmer when I touched them. But rather than dive right in, I felt it would be wise and respectful to others, to first address my own 'stuff', and work on healing myself, before working as a healer. So I spent a couple of decades on this. In Jungian psychology and astrology, the archetype of Chiron, the wounded healer, relates to the painful experiences in our life and how the healing process is not only transformational for ourselves, but helps us to feel empathy and compassion when others share their stories of trauma or illness. I have found this to be true. Healing and health have always been my key motivation, and so I delved even deeper into learning about and experiencing healing modalities, personal development and spirituality. A way of life that had blossomed in my late teens from the roots and shoots of my early childhood faith and broad spiritual education. In my early years, my mother introduced me to other faiths and the power of prayer and thought. Both my mother and grandmother spent part of their career life as nurses and yoga teachers. The religious and dogmatic teachings of my Christian primary school and Sunday School were both character building but also triggered internal conflict between what I was being told and what felt True for me. I had many questions and these were the first moments of developing discernment. I would borrow books from my family and the library, learning about all sorts of fascinating esoteric subjects. My teenage and adult interests have included sacred sites and energy lines, wellness including allopathic and alternative medicine, energy medicine. Plus psychology and mindfulness, including NLP and life coaching. After becoming ill again in my 20's, I switched to a healthier lifestyle and diet, and I loved learning about health supplements, herbs, self treating with these and homeopathic remedies, and trying a broad range of healing modalities and learning about energy. I feel this was a major element of my soul's life purpose. I am grateful to my mother and maternal grandmother for my broad spiritual education which helped me cope with many tough times throughout life. Also I'm thankful for the resilience and inner strength inherited from both sides of my family and spiritual bloodline. Although I have always been involved with creative pursuits, it was inevitable the University of Life Experience would lead me into energy healing. In mid-life, synchronicity led me to a wonderful Reiki teacher, Brighitta Moser-Clark. I took her professional accredited training in the Japanese and Western lineages of Usui Reiki. My Faith, which I am usually private about, has been the most important part of my life, since early childhood. Helping me to feel supported, protected, hopeful, happy, contented and so much more; even in the midst of illness, disability and traumas. With regard to the inclusion of intuition within my healing practice - I do feel such gratitude to have been blessed with clairs since a young age (clairaudience etc); still in development. Plus something called a 'differentiated perception' that is intertwined with my 'sigma empathy'. My sensitivity and connection to nature allows me to feel the energy of plants, trees, places, animals and people. A connection that has been there since I was a little girl. It wasn't until mid-life that I started to meet kind and wise souls who were generous with sharing their knowledge; people who could gently guide me in managing these extrasensory aspects of my being. The natural world has always felt like food for my soul. I was fortunate to spend my formative years in a house adjacent to a small woodland and stream; which was sadly demolished to make way for a cul-de-sac. I then spent part of my childhood in South West England, within driving distance of the coast, three magical moorlands, Dartmoor, Exmoor and Bodmin Moor, all with numerous sacred sites and springs, and beautiful clear rivers my siblings and I swam in. These days I love the combination of living near the sea, woodlands and rolling hills. But I am also close to vibrant urban centres that can re-charge and inspire me in different ways and bring me into contact with other beautiful souls and groups. The year prior to the global pandemic crisis, Reiki brought another intense phase of spiritual awakening that has now eased in intensity and the path has opened out into a beautiful vista where key people from my past lives are walking in and new teachers are appearing. A special time of life indeed.




Learning Never Stops
I have always loved learning and I don't believe that becoming qualified in something means that learning should stop. My Reiki training gave me the foundations for my practice, but I continue to develop my knowledge through further training, study and Continuing Professional Development.
Some of this learning relates directly to Reiki, while other areas help me to better understand and support the people and animals I work with. I am naturally curious, and when a subject catches my interest I often find myself wanting to explore it more deeply.
You can find details of my relevant training, qualifications and ongoing study below.

Wider Spiritual & Philosophical Study My learning has not been confined to formal practitioner training.

These studies form part of my personal spiritual background and have contributed to the curiosity, openness and respect with which I approach my Reiki practice.
Professional Interests, Memberships & Community Support
My wider interests also extend into areas of intuition and consciousness exploration, alongside my longstanding interest in animal and wildlife welfare. Member of the International Remote Viewing Association (IRVA). Member of several dowsing groups. I also support local wildlife hospitals, rescue services and independent wildlife rescuers, both practically and in other ways where I can.
How I Work With You
People come to Reiki for all sorts of reasons and from all sorts of backgrounds. Whatever has brought you to Infiniom, I want you to feel that you will be treated with kindness, dignity and respect.
You don't need to tell me your whole story in order to receive Reiki. You are welcome to share anything that you feel is relevant to your treatment, but equally, you may say very little. I don't need you to explain or justify your experiences, beliefs or circumstances before I can work with you compassionately.
Over the years I have met people whose experiences have left them feeling misunderstood, dismissed or judged by others. My role is not to decide for you what your experiences mean, nor to analyse, counsel or diagnose you. I can simply meet you where you are, without ridicule or judgement, and provide the Reiki treatment you have come to me to receive.
My approach is intuitive and spiritual, but you do not need to share my beliefs. During Reiki I may occassionally receive intuitive or psychic impressions, and if you would like to hear them I can share them gently afterwards as observations for your consideration. They are not diagnoses, predictions or statements of fact, and you are always free to disregard anything that does not resonate with you. You may also choose to receive Reiki without any intuitive feedback at all.
I believe strongly in respecting personal boundaries and individual choice. You can choose whether you prefer hands-on or hands-off Reiki, change your mind during a treatment, ask me to stop at any time, and decide what you do or don't wish to discuss.
Although I care very much about the people who come to me, Infiniom is a Reiki practice rather than a counselling, psychotherapy or crisis-support service. If something arises that would be better supported by another professional or specialist organisation, I will always respect the limits of my own role and, where appropriate, may suggest that you seek that additional support.
For me, compassion means meeting you where you are, without judgement, and treating you with the kindness, dignity and respect that everyone deserves.
