ABOUT ME
Hi, my name is Kristin Motley and I am a Reiki practitioner living and practicing in Waterbury, Vermont.
Reiki was first introduced to me while I was working as a Palliative Care volunteer at Dartmouth-Hitchcock in 2013. I was in awe of how valued Reiki, art therapy, and daily volunteer visits were as modalities to support patients. In their dying, patients were also thriving.
It is a gift to practice Reiki on others and my sessions reflect that sacredness. I believe that all of us have the answers and self-knowledge we so deeply seek already inside of us. My Reiki sessions will hold gentle space for you to release and recharge, for your intuitive body to lead the way, and for you to be supported by the loving energy of Reiki however you are open to it on that particular day.
As years passed and I faced my own struggles, I sought out Reiki as a tool to help me thrive in my own life. Reiki helps me release what no longer serves me and gives me the calm and self assuredness I experience during long stays in nature. The beauty of Reiki is that it’s accessible in just a few minutes or an hour.
I see female clients and children in a light filled, private studio space in my home. I will travel to provide Reiki in home hospice settings or for clients unable to travel due to physical limitation. I am located in Waterbury, Vermont.

“Kristin has the unique ability of making Reiki approachable and accessible to newcomers, while also being able to tap into deeper work for seasoned recipients of therapeutic body work. She herself is calm and kind, and you leave her space feeling the same way. It's so apparent that she braids intention and preparation into her practice well before my arrival, as if she's been holding that space and energy for healing. This is the best gift you can give yourself..” -M
"My session with Kristin was incredible. Her space is welcoming, and her quiet and caring tone made me feel right at home to try something I had never received before. Kristin did a wonderful job explaining what she was doing and spent time with me before and afterward getting to truly know what was going on in my life. I can tell that Kristin is a practitioner who cares deeply about the people she works with. I am honored to be one of them." -R
