Rachel Maki is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Reiki Master, Tarot reader, yoga teacher and Akashic seer. But her spiritual journey began when she took her first yoga class at age 11, over 25 years ago. As far back as she can remember, Rachel struggled with depression and anxiety. Yoga was the space she felt most safe in her body and calm in her mind. Graduating as a certified Yoga teacher in 2015, Yoga became the gateway that led Rachel to a lifelong exploration of ancient and modern healing practices from all over the world.

Rachel’s undergraduate studies explored the world of Expressive Art Therapies at Lesley University, seeking further education in the field of mental health, but with an alternative approach. Although this method includes a myriad of creative practices, Rachel focused primarily on dance/movement therapy, earning her BS in 2011. Rachel began studying Reiki in 2016 and became certified at the Master level in 2020.

In 2019, she received her Master’s degree in Social Work from Hunter College. She has worked as a licensed therapist for almost 5 years. Additionally, Rachel is attuned to the Akashic Records, which act as an energetic map of the soul’s journey. She has also enjoyed studying and reading Tarot for well over a decade. Rachel offers spiritual and somatic approaches to healing rooted in clinical knowledge. Rachel currently works as a Therapist with NY City Psychotherapy and additionally as a Mental Health Counselor with the City University of NY.
