About me

Meet Esther

Hi, I’m Esther.

I’m a Reiki Master and Teacher, a member of the Reiki Federation of Ireland, and the founder of Sunrise Reiki Centre. With a Master’s Degree in Psychology and a background in Transformational Coaching, I have spent over 20 years supporting people in their wellbeing, healing and personal growth.

Today, I help people reconnect with themselves, release what no longer serves them, and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives through Reiki healing and teaching.

My Journey

My Reiki journey began in 2011 after precancerous cells were found in my colon. What initially felt like a frightening diagnosis became a wake-up call and the beginning of a journey that would transform my life.

Before Reiki, I spent much of my life searching for happiness and fulfilment outside myself. I travelled, studied, changed direction, and continuously looked for the perfect place, career or circumstance that would finally bring me peace.

Everything began to shift after my Reiki Level 1 training.

As I continued my Reiki journey, I became increasingly aware of the patterns, beliefs and behaviours that had been holding me back. My self-esteem grew, I learned to treat myself with greater kindness, and I was able to let go of several addictions and unhealthy habits.

By the time I completed Reiki Level 3 in 2013, I experienced a profound realization. The healing journey I had started two years earlier had helped me rise above many of my old limitations and reconnect with who I truly was.

Since I was a little girl, I had always wanted to “save the world.” Through Reiki, I came to understand that real change begins within ourselves. If we want to change the world, we must first become the change we wish to see.

That same year, I had planned to travel to Mexico to provide psychosocial support to migrants at the US border. Instead, following that deep inner knowing, I made a different choice. I stayed in Ireland and dedicated my life to helping others experience the same transformation that Reiki had brought into mine.

That decision led to the creation of Sunrise Reiki Centre.

How I Help

Reiki is at the heart of my work. My studies in Psychology and experience as a Transformational Coach have deepened my understanding of personal growth, healing and transformation.

Whether you come to me for a Reiki treatment or a Reiki course, my intention is to create a safe, supportive space where healing, self-discovery and personal transformation can naturally unfold.

One of the greatest privileges of my work is witnessing the profound changes that take place when people reconnect with themselves and begin trusting their own inner wisdom.

Experience & Qualifications

I have been working in the wellbeing sector for over 20 years and offering Reiki treatments since 2014.

My professional background includes a Master’s Degree in Psychology, extensive Reiki training, and many years working as a Transformational Coach. This unique combination allows me to support clients not only energetically, but also emotionally and psychologically.

Over the years, I have had the honour of supporting hundreds of clients through periods of healing, transition and growth.

Teaching is also one of my greatest passions. I believe some of the deepest transformations occur when people begin their own Reiki journey. Time and again, I have witnessed students experience powerful shifts in self-awareness, confidence, wellbeing and personal alignment.

Many of my students have gone on to become Reiki practitioners themselves, establish successful Reiki businesses, or volunteer their skills in healthcare settings.

My Philosophy

I believe that healing is not about becoming someone new. It is about returning to who you truly are beneath the layers of fear, conditioning and self-doubt.

Reiki has transformed my life in ways I could never have imagined, and it continues to be a source of guidance, growth and connection.

My mission is simple: to help others reconnect with their own inner light, discover their true potential, and create lives that feel more aligned, peaceful and meaningful.
