"Life opens up in so many different ways once your energy has been awakened"
— PANACHE DESAI
Gianna is a certified Usui Reiki Master & intuitive energy healer located in San Diego, California.
She grew up in Northern New Jersey and has her bachelor's degree in clinical psychology from Penn State University. She moved to Southern California to attend graduate school and pursue a doctorate degree at Pacific College of Oriental Medicine, where she is currently still a student studying acupuncture, massage, and herbal medicine.
Gianna's spiritual journey started many years ago. Her understanding of the connection between the mind, body and spirit, is deeply rooted and has led her to her current path. Her other interests include meditation, tarot, crystal healing, and ritual.
Her goal as a Reiki practitioner is to create a safe and loving space where others can begin or continue their healing journey. She fully believes that we are all our own healers, teachers, and gurus but sometimes we all just need help remembering our own innate potential & power. Therefore, she wants to help others rediscover the tools that we all have within and help us tap back into our inner wisdom so that we may become our highest and best selves.
