About Monica & Restorative Healing Haven

Holistic, trauma-informed care for your mind, body, and spirit.

Hi, I'm Monica. I'm a Certified Holistic Complementary Therapist, Reiki Master, sound healing practitioner, mama, and an ambulatory wheelchair user who deeply understands what it means to feel unseen. I live with PTSD, autism, hEDS, and POTS. I've survived childhood trauma and an abusive marriage, and I've also been a caregiver. Before this work, I spent years as an NCIDQ-certified interior designer, a background that now shapes how I think about accessibility, sensory environments, and what real support actually looks like.

I created Restorative Healing Haven as a heart-led sanctuary, and disability advocacy and chronic illness education are woven into everything here, not treated as a side note. My mission is to help you reconnect with yourself and your sense of ease, gently and authentically, in a body and life that might not follow the rulebook other healing spaces assume.

What I offer

I blend evidence-based and intuitive practices into three core offerings:

  • Mind-Body Trauma Integration, 60 minute holistic sessions weaving somatic healing, Root Cause Therapy techniques, and trauma-informed coaching to support deep emotional and nervous system repair

  • Integrative Reiki, trauma-informed Reiki sessions in 30 and 60 minute tiers for grounding, energetic alignment, and nervous system regulation

  • Sound Healing & Events, immersive sound baths for groups, and private events, using crystal bowls, chimes and rainsticks

Everything I offer is grounded in nervous system safety, spiritual openness, and neurodivergent-affirming care, so you can move in ways that feel spacious, empowered, and free from pressure.

Whether you're processing trauma, feeling burnt out, caregiving for someone else, navigating chronic illness or disability, or simply hungry for soul-deep rest, you are seen here. You don't have to heal alone.
