About Me
I’m Anca — Reiki Master, certified crystal healer, Anishinaabe-trained medicine woman, and trained in Magnetic Path.
My work is rooted in a simple knowing: we are not separate. What we experience around us often reflects what lives within us. As we come into balance, something in our lives begins to shift. Not through force, but through alignment.
My practice is deeply earth-based. It has been shaped through my training in the Anishinaabe tradition, where healing is not something we do alone, but something we return to—through connection with the body, the elements, and the land itself.
In our sessions, this may be felt in subtle ways. In the way we slow down. In the way we listen. In the way space is held—not just by me, but by something larger.
I work with Reiki to support the natural flow of life force energy, sometimes alongside crystal medicine, depending on what is needed.
This is not about fixing. It is about remembering.
There is a natural harmony between the feminine and masculine within us. When that harmony is restored, a deeper sense of peace can emerge.
Each session is a space to soften, to return, and to reconnect—with yourself, and with the deeper intelligence that moves through all things.
“Mother of the Phoenix” reflects the path I walk; one of transformation, renewal, and the quiet strength to rise, without needing to erase what has been.
Reiki Master Certification
I received my Reiki Master certification in the Usui Shiki Ryoho System of Natural Healing on December 8, 2023, under the guidance of Reiki Master Cynthia M. Chase.
This path reflects a deep commitment to the healing arts and to holding space in a way that is grounded, present, and true.
My work with Reiki supports balance, relaxation, and the gentle unfolding of inner transformation.

My Journey
I was born in Romania, where I spent my early years before moving to the United States at 24.
That transition shaped me in ways I didn’t fully understand at the time. It asked for resilience, trust, and a deeper connection to something within me that could hold change.
In the years that followed, I built a life here—working, studying, and eventually earning two bachelor’s degrees and a master’s degree.
Becoming a mother was a turning point. It opened something deeper in me—an understanding of love, presence, and care that began to reshape how I moved through the world.
My path with Reiki began in 2022 under the guidance of Cynthia Chase. By December 2023, I completed my training and stepped into my role as a Reiki Master.
Since then, my work has continued to evolve, shaped not only by training, but by lived experience, inner work, and a deepening connection to the body, to nature, and to the quiet intelligence that moves through all things.
Today, I offer Reiki and healing sessions that support balance, release, and a return to yourself.
If something in this speaks to you, we can begin there.
