About Veela

Who

I’m Veela Jeweline, LMSW

Reiki Master Teacher, Voice Witch, Certified Trauma Professional, Cultural Spellworker, & Doula of Souls with backgrounds in transformational voice work & shamanism. My blood roots are of Celtic & Central Eurasian lineages. My spiritual training is eclectic.

My soul is lit up by warm heart connections with humans & animals, trees & plants, indigenous wisdom, sacred ceremony, singing, learning, reading, creating, & teaching. It is a blessed day when my soul expression can support the awareness or stoking of others’ sacred inner fires!

As a healer, trauma survivor, LGBTQ person, & human-in-general, it’s important to me on a personal level that everyone I work with feels heard, honored, & cared for. My heart is in this work; my goal is to facilitate comfort, healing, harmony, empowerment, & more, for all beings who seek it.

What

I can offer any of the following forms of Reiki & tend to use an eclectic approach unless special requests are made:

  • Usui Shiki Ryoho
  • Karuna™/ Holy Fire™ III
  • Shamanic & Crystal Reiki
  • Reiki for Animals

Why

Seven years ago, I was feeling lost. I was disconnected from my purpose, & my magick. I was struggling with trauma without knowing that I even had it. I was working so hard, trying my very best to do whatever was in front of me, in a frantic search for the crucial, soul-fulfilling element I was missing.

What I was missing was my spirituality, my connection to myself & the earth, & my internal sense of safety. On a daily basis, Reiki empowers me, directly & indirectly, to cultivate soul-fulfillment, connection, & safety.

I only experienced 2 sessions before pursuing my own Reiki training. After those sessions I felt lighter, calmer, & more relaxed & whole in body, mind, & spirit. My cup felt more full; I felt that I would be ok, even if everything around me wasn’t ok. Reiki was there for me & my family when my Father began his dying journey. It helped him to relax, sleep, receive spiritual & emotional nourishment, & feel less anxious. It empowered me with opportunities for self-care & comfort for my loved ones. After his death, I knew I was meant to share this gift with others. So began this path of mine.

Healing arts such as Reiki have blessed and improved my life physically, emotionally, & spiritually. My purpose now includes sharing these gifts with others.

My goal for my sessions & teaching is to offer comfort, & hold space for the activation of your healing, harmony, & personal empowerment. 

My hope is that our work together feels like a joyful, home-coming sigh of relief.

Education

I completed the entirety of my traditional Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki Master Teacher training with Kai Altair of Alaria Healing Arts. I’m engaged in long-term Sacred Path training with Kai in Reiki, shamanic practices, & sacred sound.

I pursued additional training with William Lee Rand of the International Center for Reiki Therapy which empowers me to practice and teach Karuna™/Holy Fire™ III Reiki, & Usui/Holy Fire™ III Reiki at the Master Teacher level- both in-person & online.

I received my academic degrees, specializing in Psychology, Clinical Mental Health, & Health, from the SUNY & CUNY systems. I earned my Trauma Professional Certification from Evergreen Certifications through PESI.
