I’m Emma Freeman, an Artist, Soul Writer, Reiki Therapist, Intuitive Medium, Expressive Arts Teacher and Speaker. I’m passionate about finding the sacred in the everyday. Slowing down, exploring quiet, authentic connections and getting in touch with the deeper parts of myself and others makes me feel alive and full of hope.

Healing to me means unearthing our truest essence, our soul, that is always right there at the very core of each of us, waiting to be cared for and listened to. Healing means choosing to go on an inner journey of self-discovery, growth and evolution full of challenges, surprises and extraordinary beauty and wonder. Healing means living a rich, meaningful, empowered life on our own terms, guided by our own unique radiant light.

My own difficult healing journey led me into the world of healing and spiritual exploration. I have struggled through addiction, trauma, an eating disorder, chronic illnesses, anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive behaviors, grief and loss.

It has been through this healing journey that I have felt deeply called to share my experiences and learn healing modalities to support myself and others as we work collectively to recover our light. That’s how Deep Rooted Healing was born.

I have worked in the arts and arts education for 20 years. I am a certified Reiki Master/Teacher and a Licensed Massage Therapist. I have a degree in Philosophy and Studio Art from Alverno College in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I have also trained in mindfulness meditation, Quantum Touch and shamanic studies and am currently studying to become a certified spiritual counselor.

I’m endlessly curious, a voracious reader, sober, playful, deeply sensitive, Buddhist, an animal lover and part of the LGBTQ community. I live in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin where I grew up. After many years living in other places, I was called back home to grow deeper roots.
