About Haruyo
Haruyo Nishimura, LCSW
Haruyo was born and raised in Japan. After college, she relocated to the United States to pursue her MS in Recreation Therapy at the University of Florida. She later earned her MSW at California State University Long Beach. Haruyo works as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in adults and the aging population. She is also passionate about her energy healer and QHHT practitioner work.
Haruyo studied Reiki with two Western Reiki masters before practicing Reiki herself. Although she was amazed by what Western Reiki could offer, it felt somewhat foreign to her, having shifted over time from the original principles of Reiki. She researched the teachings of Reiki as practiced in Japan and discovered Jikiden Reiki.
Haruyo traveled to Kyoto to study under Tadao Yamaguchi and became a Jikiden Reiki practitioner in 2016. She became a Shihan Kaku (Junior Teacher) in 2017 and finally a Shihan (Teacher) in 2022. Today, she offers Jikiden Reiki treatment to individuals seeking relief from a wide variety of physical, mental, and emotional conditions. She also provides Jikiden Reiki seminars to those wishing to become Reiki practitioners.
Haruyo pursued training to become a certified QHHT practitioner in 2024, achieving her lifelong goal of using the subconscious to help people whose psychological and physical conditions aren’t improved by conventional medicine.
What My Clients/Students Say
Haruyo gave me a Reiki treatment when I could hardly move after I slipped and banged my tailbone on a snowy road at Mt. Shasta. My whole body was stiff, and I could barely get out of my bed. Reiki treatment was relaxing and comfortable, and I felt the stiffness leaving my body during the session. I was amazed that my body felt lighter afterward and could easily move around. It was simply astonishing that I only had slight pain in the bone after one treatment. I have received sessions several times since then and learned to do Reiki myself. I feel my health has improved, and I no longer get sick. Reiki is now an essential part of my life.
A few years ago, I injured my leg and found great pain relief after receiving Reiki treatments from Haruyo. I decided to take her Jikiden Reiki classes in order to learn how to perform Reiki on myself. Haruyo is not only an effective practitioner; she is also an incredible teacher. I have since treated myself for various conditions and am amazed at how much better I feel. Lately, I have begun to perform Reiki on friends and family. I would strongly recommend Haruyo to anyone seeking Reiki treatment or anyone wanting to become a Reiki practitioner.
I feel incredibly fortunate and blessed to have met Haruyo, and first, be one of her patients. It was under her care where I found such a depth of healing, calm, and peace. Haruyo let me know that I could learn Reiki, and be able to use this healing on myself. I took her classes, upon which I found Haruyo as a most effective, and kind teacher.
Haruyo has a gift. She is both an amazing healer, and teacher. Her love of what she is doing is evident. I highly recommend Haruyo to anyone who is in need of healing.
My Reiki practitioner Haruyo has helped me so much with my body and mind. I have definitely have felt energy shift and feel much calming. Learning this spiritual pathwork from her has been so enlightening and enjoyable. Hope to keep learning from her to be able to help heal, not only myself but others as well.
Haruyo was an exceptionally good teacher. She was clear, precise, and thorough, both in her description of the history and development of Jikiden Reiki and in the methods of Reiki that she taught us. Haruyo was patient, she answered questions thoroughly, and at the same time moved us efficiently through the information. Her real talent, though, was not the clarity of her instructions, but her spirit. She was supportive, she encouraged us at each step, and her confidence in our ability to do Reiki was unflagging. Her love of Reiki and this confidence that we could do it helped us immensely.
With Haruyo’s professional assistance, I was guided to deep passages into a few past lives that spoke to me about pressing present issues that needed to be addressed in this lifetime. The hours it took felt so short and easy. I sincerely recommend Haruyo!
