Sound Healing Practitioner - Andrea Taylor

About Andrea

Andrea Taylor is an Integral Sound Healing Practitioner , a Reiki II Practioner, and a Respiratory Therapist . She has a special interest in tuning forks, gongs, and all types of chimes. She began her training with the Foundation for Shamanic Studies in Spring 2022, and will be pursuing her Reiki Master certification in Fall of 2022. 

In 2017 Andrea began practicing yoga as a means to contend with her own anxiety and depression. Finding that place of center and calm was further enhanced by an introduction to Sound Healing through Group meditations.  

She began her sound Healing training in 2019, and subsequently earned her Level 1 certificate, and Level 2 Diplomas in both Groups and 1:2:1 Individual sessions.  Andrea often incorporates Reiki healing into her sessions and places an emphasis on the importance of sound healing to those with mental health challenges. 

"From my experience as a respiratory therapist, I bring an allopathic healthcare understanding and knowledge of anatomy to your session. There are complementary benefits to pursuing sound healing and Reiki along with conventional medical care, including improved mindset and outlook, decreased pain, and faster healing."
