About
Walking the Path of the Faery
Anna is a Reiki healer and spiritual guide, trained in Insight Meditation, Somatic Therapy, Family Constellations, Shamanic Healing, and Blue Fire Reiki traditions. Anna grew up in the Ural Mountains of Russia, where the myth and magic are still alive. She brings in a deep reverence for the sacred and sees her clients as whole and healthy. Anna offers healing and has a special passion for Life Purpose, Higher Self Connection, Ancestral Healing, and Reconnection with Nature.
Anna has traveled extensively throughout the British Isles, Greece, Germany, Sweden, and France to trace the steps of the ancient cultures and bring back the stories, myth, and magic of the Old Ways. She has studied with spiritual teachers and shamans from Russia to deepen her connection to the land and to learn the Universal Laws. She has dedicated many years to the service of the Divine Feminine, both individually and within her community. She has gone on pilgrimages to Mary Magdalen's cave, Glastonbury Tor, the Isle of Skye, and the Cave of the Cats in Ireland.
She is currently training to become a Licensed Psychotherapist at Touro University.
My Story
From a young age, I could tell that I was different from my peers - I lived in a world of magic and found it difficult to relate to the people of Earth. The drive to belong led me on a winding path from Russia to California, where I chased the American Dream to become accomplished. This drive led me to pursue a Physics degree from UCSC and build a tech career, where I found temporary solace and belonging. In my late twenties, I became disenchanted with my role at Google and started to look deeper for the magic that I experienced in childhood. My search led me to various spiritual paths, and I'm grateful to have found my own connection to the Goddess, which now drives me in my next adventure of being of service to the people of Earth.
