How I can help
I'm a Certified Surrogate Partner Therapist and Reiki Practitioner with a background in software development — a path that led me from systems and code into the complex, beautiful systems of the human body and nervous system. My work integrates somatic and embodiment practices, energy work, and evidence-based insight to support each client’s unique healing process.
I’m deeply committed to supporting perimenopausal and menopausal women—including those who are neurodivergent, or as I like to say, neurospicy—as they navigate this transformative phase with self-compassion and love. My own journey to understanding my AuDHD brain has been fueled by curiosity and a desire to embrace the unique interplay of traits that come with both autism and ADHD. This lived experience enriches my ability to create a safe, attuned, and lovingly held space where women can reconnect with their bodies, honor their innate sensuality, and reclaim their personal power. Whether we’re working through breath, touch, movement, or presence, I’m here to walk beside you on your path to self-discovery and empowerment.

Hi There!
My name is Christina Dickson
My path to healing work has been anything but linear — and I believe that’s part of what makes it so meaningful. I began my career as a software developer, drawn to systems, logic, and problem-solving. But over time, I found myself increasingly curious about the deeper systems within us — the ways our bodies, minds, and emotions are intertwined. That curiosity led me to become a Certified Surrogate Partner Therapist and a Reiki Practitioner, where I now guide clients in reconnecting with their bodies and cultivating deeper self-awareness and trust.
I’m passionate about exploring the space where peer-reviewed science meets traditional and energetic healing — using evidence-based techniques alongside practices rooted in intuition, presence, and ancient wisdom. My work is driven by compassion and care. Above all, I strive to create a space that feels safe, grounded, and loving, where you can show up fully and begin to reclaim your relationship with your body at your own pace.
