Having completed Reiki I, II and Master level training with them, I highly recommend Four Directions. Mara and Catherine are both wonderful teachers who are incredibly generous with their time, very knowledgable, highly intuitive and have fostered an inclusive community of practitioners. If you're looking to learn Reiki at any level, then look no further!

I had a great experience learning Reiki 1 with Mara and Reiki 2 with Catherine, and I’m looking forward to continuing with the Reiki Master training. I’ve had many Reiki sessions in my life but I did not know how life-changing it is to receive the attunements. What it feels like to me is that it balances and calms my energy system so that life begins to flow in magical ways.

I had ReiKi level one with Mara and I can say that it was a really amazing experience since I found Mara to be a professional and caring and very knowledgeable person and she definitely knows what she is doing, provides you with the exact knowledge you need to know, has a very good teaching approach and her class is really fun and productive, you feel connected and attentive in her class and I really enjoyed every second of it. Thank you Mara and I wish you the best. I also had ReiKi level two with Catherine and I can say that I enjoyed every second of it. You feel lots of good vibes , positive and bright energies alongside love,yes you will definitely feel love and kindness cause I found Catherine a pure and genuine person.Not only a fantastic person she is with a great personality but also a wonderful teacher. The way she teaches ReiKi is through her heart and that is a valuable thing for a ReiKi master.God bless you Catherine.

I completed Reiki I and II with Catherine and it was a truly amazing experience. Catherine was a fantastic instructor and was so patient with all of my questions. She made me feel comfortable and empowered on this journey as I've developed a deep passion for Reiki - that is all thanks to her! I can't wait for Reiki Master and I'm also signed up for additional courses at Four Directions Wellness because I had such a fantastic experience with Catherine. Thank you for all you do!

About Mara

Mara has always been intrigued by our body-mind-emotions-spirit connections and holistic care. Her passion is in how we can adopt “whole person” care in partnership with the current healthcare system and more importantly with each person.

Over the years, Mara has had the pleasure to train in a variety of healing modalities.  She has trained in China with a Qigong Master, with Lokota Shamanic Healers, and combined the spiritual approaches through a wonderful two-year seminary program in interfaith/interspiritual concepts and practices.  Mara studied mindfulness with Duke University, and Reiki through the GW Center for Integrative Medicine.  She is also trained in reflexology, Healing Touch®, Holy Fire Reiki® and even medical intuitiveness.  She is honored to be a practitioner with the GW Center for Integrative Medicine and lead the Reiki program at GW Hospital until COVID.

Prior to forming Four Directions Wellness, Mara enjoyed over 20 years in healthcare leadership. For more details on Mara’s career, please visit her LinkedIn.
