Healing Modalities
- what I offer & why -
Through the years of my life I have connected with various healing modalities and each have benefitted me in ways that have changed and helped me move with the transitions life brings.
While I began with Reiki in my own healing process, I found myself drawn to exploring other offerings. It reminded me of a teaching early on in my yoga days when an instructor said; “The practice meets you where you are at.” I believe this is the same when it comes to healing the wounds within. We find the right people and what they offer at the right time.
As such I have a few trainings that I have embraced over the years and offer these modalities as gateways to release trauma and old wounds.
Currently sessions are available on Wednesday’s and Friday’s at Kindred Studios, Strandhill. We can also meet online via zoom at an agreed time that is suitable for both of us if the location isn’t suitable. We connect for 75 - 90 minutes for sessions. For Shamanic Healing it is a 2 hour session.
Shamanic Healing
During a shamanic healing session with me you can expect elements of coaching, shamanic practices including soul retrieval, ancestral healing, spiritual emergence, energetic healing, bodywork, vocal sound healing and crystal therapy. There may be a guided visualisation process to help heal old wounds and to let go of energy that no longer serves you. We work together to remove blockages in the body so you can move forward and feel more whole in who you are. We can work online and / or in person and sessions may include the use of drumming or rattling.
Golden Tera-Mai Reiki & Akasha Seichim
I connected with Reiki over twenty years ago when I was introduced to the healing modality by my Mam. I found it to be a powerful, yet very subtle healing tool as I worked through an illness. I was initiated into Tera-Mai Reiki Level 1 in 2003. In 2021 after a few years of very integrative and healing sessions, I was re-initiated into Level 1 by Alvagh Cronin and have since completed Level 2, Reiki Master and Akasha Seichim I, II & III. The Golden Tera-Mai Reiki practice comes from Kathleen Ann-Milner and there is a lineage within the healing modality which offers clients a held, yet gentle way of being with the world. It encourages us to open to the abundance that life has to offer and asks us to take responsibility for our place in the world. While we may have challenges to work through, Golden Tera-Mai Reiki holds our hand, helps to release energetic blockages and become aware of patterns in our lives. It gifts us a path towards balance, harmony and inner wisdom.
Biodynamic Cranio-Sacral Therapy allows for the body’s natural ability to reset itself. Through light gentle touch and holding, this approach to healing offers and encourages a physical, mental and emotional rebalance. This modality of healing gives the body permission to gently release stress and trauma held in our systems. It aids injury recovery, restoration and resolution to chronic issues within the body. Clients can experience deep relaxation, an increase in energy or potency in the body and better sleep.
I came to this work to help with an old shoulder injury and discovered subsequently old trauma’s that were held within my body’s system. I found Biodynamic Cranio-Sacral Therapy to be a very subtle yet powerful way to release and let go within my system. There is a settling that has come in and a deep sense of trusting in my body’s inherent ability to process, release and reset.

“One to one’s with Aoife have been a journey of healing the past and mapping the way to the future I had always longed for. Aoife guided me back to a place of belonging to my true self and brought out my creativity and authenticity. She has healed, coached, mentored; taught me to connect, align and let go. My career is focused, thriving and balanced. Relationships with family and friends are clearer and stronger. And the relationship with myself is becoming kinder and more forgiving all the time.It is difficult to place into words the level of gratitude I have for all she has brought into my life.”
Anne
“‘Radiating such an amazing energy!’, that's what I thought when I first met Aoife. I knew I wanted her to work with her, I knew her energy would be good for me. And indeed I was right. Aoife was more than a coach, she was this immense energy for me, whom I could talk to/ consult during the toughest times. When I hit bottom rock, when I had deep existential questions around myself and my career, when I lost someone close to me... Aoife has been such a major resource for me throughout all these ups and downs. She provided both practical points, as well as helping me to figure out deeper issues/ how to really connect with myself. I am so grateful for our coaching relationship.
