Sara Mitteer is the founder and owner of Reiki of San Diego, LLC. Trained in both traditional Usui Reiki Ryoho and Holy Fire Reiki, Sara is a Certified Reiki Therapist and Reiki Master Teacher, Certified Crystal Healer, Certified Sound Healer, Certified Yoga Instructor, Certified Hypnotherapist and Trance Medium. She has a degree in Psychology, with a strong educational background in Energy Medicine, Neuroscience, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Hypnotherapy, Body Language Analysis, and Holistic Therapy. With a scientific and medical scholastic foundation, Sara strives to blend the world of science with alternative and spiritual medicine. Through her own healing journey, she has personally experienced the profound healing that can transpire when you address the mind; conscious and unconscious, the body; physical and energetic, as well as the spirit; heart and soul. Sara focuses her practice on empirically supported healing modalities, while still holding space for the metaphysical realm and the power of spiritual healing. Her dharma is to share the remarkable benefits of spiritual medicine from both a scientific and spiritual perspective to heal all five bodies; physical, mental, emotional, sexual and spiritual. Having walked through her own transformational healing journey, she remembers the struggle of trying various different types of healing modalities, from traditional psychologists, psychotherapists and western medicine, to yoga, Reiki and hypnotherapy. After over 12 years of navigating her way through her own healing, she now understands that all five bodies must be addressed to fully heal. Sara strives to move Reiki beyond just stress-relief and relaxation and take it to the next level of complete life transformational healing. Sara truly believes that when you heal the spirit first, the body and mind will follow.
Lisa Garces is an exceptionally gifted channel, intuitive, and Reiki Master with a remarkable story of discovering spirituality and her inherent gifts. Lisa was raised with a strong belief in science and trust in Western medicine. She walked the traditional career path and received her degree in Business Management and worked in the corporate environment for 25 years. Along her path, she expanded her education and received her Pharmacy Technician License, which brought light to a deeper truth about the pharmaceutical industry. As Lisa’s awareness grew, she began exploring more holistic approaches for her anxiety, chronic sickness, chronic pain, as well as her daughter’s anxiety. After discovering Reiki, everything changed. Lisa’s first Reiki session with Reiki of San Diego brought such immediate and profound effects that the once spiritual skeptic and science lover became a Reiki believer and advocate overnight. Over the next several years she embarked on the non-traditional healing path and began her spiritual awakening alongside her daughter. She received her first Reiki certification from Reiki of San Diego and went on to receive additional certifications as a Reiki Master and Crystal Healer. Her path as a Reiki Master took an abrupt turn when her daughter Jada unexpectedly passed at age 18. Lisa’s spiritual path picked up speed rapidly as she struggled to navigate through the unexplainable trauma and grief. Her pain became the catalyst for the deepest spiritual awakening.
​
Lisa received her Mediumship Certification through the James Van Praagh School of Mystical Arts and trained with Angel the Medium and Suzanne Tempel from Arthur Findlay College. She also has certifications in Akashic Records, Life Coaching, and is a certified NLP Practitioner. Lisa is a conduit of the Spirit World and channels messages and healing from spirits, guides, and angels. She is a clairvoyant, clairsentient, clairaudient, claircognizant, and trance medium. Her sessions are spirit guided and will be directed by your higher self and spirit team. Lisa is dedicated to guiding her clients on their spiritual journey towards soul alignment, empowering them to connect with their higher self and embrace their soul’s mission.

Intuitive Life Coach
Lyndsey Tapia, RMT, CHT, CSLC
Certified Reiki Master Teacher
Certified Hypnotherapist
Spiritual Life Coach
EFT Practitioner
Sound Healer
Lyndsey is a naturally intuitive healer who embodies a warm and nurturing energy. She has a unique ability of holding space for others in a way that allows them to explore the depths of themselves and find the root cause of their discomfort. She holds certifications in Usui Reiki, Hypnotherapy, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Spiritual Life Coaching, and Breathwork. With her unique blend of healing modalities and life experiences, she is able to guide her clients on a completely transformational journey of deep healing and personal exploration. She believes that it is her mission to help others unveil the light that is already within them.
Lyndsey began her healing journey back in 2017 after she hit a breaking point while stuck in an unfulfilling career and toxic work environment. She found herself numbing her overwhelming thoughts and emotions with food and self-isolation. She battled with crippling depression and anxiety all while keeping this to herself and hiding it under a smile. She was introduced to Reiki by a friend and since then, it has been the catalyst for Lyndsey’s healing and self discovery journey. An entirely new world was opened up for her as she began to see her life through a new lens. She successfully healed the broken relationship with her mother, connected with her inner child, and finally started to feel empowered to make decisions that were most aligned for her. And through her journey and innate passion for supporting others, she became a healer and truly found her calling.
While facing and moving through the many layers of limiting beliefs she had adopted from childhood she became fascinated with learning about the subconscious mind. She became a Hypnotherapist after seeing the importance of reframing limiting beliefs and processing trauma at a subconscious level in order to see lasting changes. She serves as an activator and supports her clients with transmuting energy, emotions and beliefs on a mind, body, and soul level. Lyndsey does an exceptional job at reflecting back to you what is already within so that you can feel empowered to be the healer of your own journey.
Megan Hart, FEC, CRP, CHT, RYT
Somatic Coach
Certified Embodiment Coach
Certified Hypnotherapist
Certified Reiki Practitioner
Certified Applied Polyvagal Theory
Megan knew from a young age that she was meant to help people heal, evolve and live deeply fulfilling lives, while first healing much of her own inherited trauma (patterns of codependency, self-abandonment, people-pleasing, dissociation & disembodiment).
She received her BA in Psychology, Spirituality & Herbalism and went on to work for a world-renowned Hypnotherapy company for 11+ years.
Over time she started noticing substantial gaps in the fields of psychology and hypnotherapy. Concurrently on her own spiritual journey, Megan explored many avenues of spirituality, however never quite satisfied with the subtle rejections of self that many religions carry or the overt spiritual bypassing that is rampant in much of new age spirituality (such as trying to change things with just positive-thinking).
Through a series of divine synchronicities, Megan was intuitively guided into the world of Embodiment & Somatic Therapy.
Quickly she realized that Embodiment & Somatic work ‘plugged’ the gaps (such integrating emotional self-awareness into actual embodied change) that were missing in so much of traditional psychology, spirituality & hypnotherapy.
Megan is known for her nurturing demeanor, artfully weaving together the spiritual, emotional, mental and physical bodies in her work. She gently-yet-profoundly empowers her clients to uncover the answers they are seeking within themselves.
Sarah Kelly, CRM
Certified Reiki Master
Theta Healing Practitioner
HeartMath Trauma Sensitive Practitioner
Sarah Kelly is an intuitive energy healer who is passionate about helping people discover, unearth, and embody their highest potential. Sarah is skilled at working within a diverse spectrum of modalities which allows her to honor the unique and differing needs of each individual that she meets. She intuitively combines Reiki with coaching, emotional healing, and somatic work to assist her clients to transform in a truly holistic manner. Sarah has been walking her own path of spiritual transformation and soul discovery for over 7 years and is devoted to being a heart-centered pillar for her clients and for this world. Her mission is to assist as many people as she can to return to the true nature that lives beneath trauma, disconnection, and disharmony.
Sarah’s path to helping others heal began through the western healthcare system as she completed her Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing in 2018. She concentrated her studies in mental health and had all intentions of becoming a community mental health nurse. She was moved by the still-present stigma associated with mental health issues and has always had a fierceness in her heart for embracing those who society marginalizes. However in 2016, in the middle of completing her nursing degree, Sarah went through a pivotal breakup that catalyzed an intense spiritual awakening. This ultimately led her away from the western healthcare system and down the path of Reiki, shamanic healing, shadow work, and exploring the profound power that human beings have to create our own realities.
Sarah’s path has taken her to the depths of herself and she has a particular passion for assisting others to reclaim their power from all places they have given it away. She has a gift for assisting people to repair the fracturing that results from trauma and return to embodied wholeness. Sarah is a certified Reiki Master, ThetaHealing Practitioner, HeartMath Trauma Sensitive Practitioner, and Intuitive Channel. In addition to the modalities she has been professionally trained in, Sarah has spent the past seven years unlocking her soul’s gifts of shamanic practice, energetic alchemy, and the potent healing power of the heart.
Sarah has a very comforting, loving presence that will create a safe and nurturing environment for you to heal.
Chelsea McGuire, RMT, CHC
Certified Reiki Master Teacher
Certified Health Coach
Certified Trauma Informed Yoga Nidra Instructor
Chelsea is a Reiki Master Teacher and practitioner and has been practicing Reiki since 2017. Her purpose is to guide you towards whole-hearted living and holistic wellness through self-compassion and connecting mind, body, and soul. Chelsea believes that joy, abundance, and self-love are possible for everyone that seeks it, and that we all have an innate ability to heal.
Chelsea found the world of energy healing & Reiki when she was feeling lost, disconnected, unhealthy, and lacking purpose. Reiki helped her connect, heal, and find direction. She was able to connect better with herself and with others, and she became more aware of her emotions and how they were showing up in her mind, body, and energy. As an empath and highly sensitive person, she learned how to understand other people’s energy and how to separate theirs from her own. She found direction by connecting to a deeper purpose in life in guiding others through healing - that’s why she’s passionate about sharing and teaching Reiki through private sessions, workshops and trainings.
Chelsea’s purpose was inspired by her own healing journey in discovering the root of her depression and anxiety, healing trauma, figuring out the importance of real food and whole body wellness, and finding self love and compassion through all of it. She learned that healing isn't just physical; healing involves the whole person - physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
Chelsea has a B.A. in Psychology & Sociology and implements her additional training and background in breathwork, mindset, emotional intelligence, personal development, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, somatic healing techniques, EFT tapping, meditation, and dance within her practice. From weight loss counseling and teaching group fitness to health coaching and teaching Yoga Nidra and Reiki, she’s passionate about holistic wellness and is a guide and inspiration for others.
​
She loves helping others and creates a safe space for others to experience the powerful practice of Reiki and move through limitations and negative thought patterns so they can find their own strengths, self-love, and feel empowered to make transformational change in their lives.
