Working Together
Each session is unique, blending practices such as inquiry, meditation, nervous system regulation, Reiki, movement, breath, and earth wisdom. These sessions offer a supportive space to calm the nervous system, nurture resilience, and reconnect with your innate wisdom and inherent worth.
Together, we’ll explore ways to create small but meaningful shifts in how you see, think, feel, and respond. These shifts open the door to empowered choice. Healing is a spiral - each turn bringing you closer to the truth of who you are.
About Dani
My work as a teacher spans across many fields - inquiry, meditation, nervous system work, the somatic, the subtle and life experience. I care deeply about supporting people in seeing their own light and worth, holding a supportive space for your exploration and an opportunity to see things from a new perspective in service to your growth and healing. My personal journey has shown me that it's not what happens, but what we do with what happens – this is where our choice, power, and peace live.
My own journey with Lyme, co-infections, and Mold (misdiagnosed for many, many years) has been one of ups and downs, deep learnings, and unexpected wisdom. Years of holistic and allopathic approaches, study, and lived experience led to the creation of The Energetics of Lyme and the co-creation of The Emerald Cell - work that now allows me to support others navigating similar paths.
There is something profound that happens whether in the quietness of a forest, in the depth of the ocean or by the stillness of a mountain. I believe when we step outside and immerse ourselves in nature there is an effortless conversation that happens. A conversation without words, an exchange of energy, a reminder of the nature that we are - our nature comes alive with Nature. I started deepening my conversation with the wind, flowers, stars and trees by taking whatever challenge was arising and asking them for guidance: What does this stone have to tell me about patience? What does the ocean want me to know about how to forgive this person I am really struggling with? Can I release my ‘trying to figure - it - out- ness’ and just very simply receive what the ancient wisdom of nature has to tell and show me. This relationship created a spiralling of creativity moving through me as well as a steady support system that I could tap into anyplace and anytime. It led to the creation of Meditations with the Earth – a series of meditations that invites you to connect with the ancient wisdom of the mountains, stones, flowers, wind, stars and other nature ancestors as a way of reuniting with your inherent wisdom through nature by stepping inside.
From assisting in dance classes at age 10, to being a camp counselor, and later a classroom teacher, I’ve always loved working with and connecting with children and youth. My own journey with self-worth continues to teach me a lot and I’ve learned how powerful it is to have spaces where you can just be yourself, connect, and feel supported. That’s why I created Worthy U - so teens and young adults can have a space in community to connect, reflect, and realize they’re already enough, exactly as they are.
I look forward to working together.

KIND WORDS
Dani helped me connect and begin to heal different parts of myself. She helped me view my life in ways I never would have before in a dire time of need. The first time I met with Dani I felt an instant connection and sense of safety around her. Dani helped me connect with nature, which found to be a very big part of my healing journey! It opened up a new portal to joy. She has set me up on so many good paths when I've been lost not knowing where to go. Dani has helped bring me back up from lows, and i am always leaving her sessions feeling inspired and motivated and she helped to give me hope when I had very little - Vanessa
Dani is a very caring, compassionate, nurturing, lovingly person - she guides you to be that way for yourself. I’m so grateful our paths crossed - Susan
Dani is a gifted teacher. I have referred countless young patients to her over the past 9 years and I entrusted her to work with all 3 of my daughters. Dani has a unique ability to make a strong connection with teens and young adults. Using a mix of mindfulness techniques and inquiry, Dani empowers young people to become their best, authentic self, while helping them learn to regulate their nervous system. I have seen remarkable, positive changes in those who work with Dani - Dr. Elyse Dubo, Youth Psychiatrist
Dani has a way of creating a space that made me feel like I could take the time I needed to really come into my breath and my body. I felt a deep sense of embodiment like I’d never felt before and a powerful sense of the energy flowing within. Dani created such a safe and nurturing space that, in just one session, I was able to feel a true sense of opening up and healing - Angelica
Learning with Dani’s gentle, honest, and nurturing presence has helped me in truly profound ways to rebuild my self-love. With the help of our sessions, I have been able to move towards fully embracing my skills, my self, and to realizing the gifts I can give back to the world. Dani has coached me to be myself with more integrity, trust, and gentleness, and to cultivate a sense of peace and wholeness. My deep appreciation for Dani is difficult to put into words, but I know I will carry this love and magic with me for the rest of my life. Thank you Dani for all we’ve done together, and for all that continues to unfold. I am so grateful - Eszter
“My time with Dani has helped me to recover from a severe diagnosis of depersonalization disorder as well as help to come to terms with how to better balance my life. Through her mindfulness, guided yoga nidras, yoga stretching and breathing techniques as well as many other practices, my symptoms of depersonalization have slowly disappeared when I employ the practices she has taught me in my daily life.
Dani is a very gentle and wonderful person as well. She cares deeply about everything we work on together and I can’t really ask for much more because she has been so helpful to me in my life.
Her knowledge and her connection to spirituality has led to many conversations that have helped me to understand the way things are, and I always leave our sessions feeling like I have a better grip on where I need to focus my time and energy. It is not often that you meet people who truly and deeply care about what they do, but Dani is definitely one of them and it’s because of this that she has helped me so much.” - Charlie, 20
I first started seeing Dani at a time in my life where I was really struggling; depression, anxiety, body image and eating issues were starting to dominate my life. My sessions with her turned out to be so valuable and a huge factor in my recovery. Dani’s taught me the importance of seeing my own self-worth and looking inward for the answers to life’s issues. She’s taught me how to live with intention and how to add a bit of sacredness to my everyday life. Her yoga nidras and energetic work are incredibly powerful and never fail to leave me feeling calm, rejuvenated, and at peace, even on my worst days. The flows and mudras and other techniques I’ve learned from her have served me well in all aspects of my life. The group sessions that Dani has led have also been amazing. The Worthy U workshop taught me a whole new way of seeing myself…as worthy of love, as a source of creativity and insight, as a woman.
Dani is talented, knowledgeable, deeply caring and truly wise – her warmth and generosity have made her more like a mentor to me. My time with Dani has left a huge impression on me that I won’t forget! - Beatrice
"What a beautiful experience. Thank you Dani for the heart and soul you have put into your Reiki Level 1 Training. You have created a truly powerful offering. I loved every single thing about the daylong training - from the intuition practices to start the day, to your gentle, thoughtful guidance as we shared Reiki with one another. I wish I could do it all over again - it was perfection. I'll just have to wait for Reiki 2!” - Ashleigh
