Dr. Shannon Amberg is a Reiki practitioner who has the gift of intuition. When she does a Reiki healing session on a client, she can’t help but to get intuitive messages that will enhance their healing.
Shannon joins the NUW team as a certified Holy Fire Usui Tibetan Reiki practitioner and intuitive guide. Her background and education are in the environmental field and her doctoral education focused on how people interact with and experience the natural environment. Since obtaining her Ph.D. in 2008, Shannon has been drawn to teaching and studying how a deep connection to nature can rejuvenate and help heal emotional, physical, and mental challenges. She created and taught a Spiritual Ecology class at the University of Wisconsin, La Crosse. Studying energy healing was a natural next step in her progression to understanding the connections between people and nature, and how nature can help heal.
While Shannon uses the traditional hand positions during Reiki sessions, her specific style is highly intuitive, meaning she is also strongly guided by her intuition and psychic awareness to the parts of the body that are in most need of healing at the time. During healing sessions, it is common for Shannon to receive visions, insights, and messages about physical and emotional challenges in need of focused attention or are in the process of healing.
