The Roots of The Healing Tree Circle


The Healing Tree Circle is a collective of experienced energy workers and holistic practitioners serving the Triad region for the past seven years. Founded by Dee Dee Cortinas, who has been practicing energy work since 1986, the Circle was born from a shared vision to provide a comprehensive range of modalities for those seeking health and wellness.

Our offerings have expanded from Reiki circles to include Intuitive and Tarot Readings, Meditations, Yoga, Psychic Fairs, Spiritual Coaching, EFT/Tapping, and more. We are proud to have cultivated a supportive community of practitioners who embrace each other's unique gifts and share them with a growing number of individuals awakening to their inner truth.

Our Practitioners

Dee Dee Cortinas is an ordained minister through the Universal Brotherhood Movement and  LEWA Light & Energy Workers Association, Motivational Life Coach, Medium, Reiki Master Teacher and Spiritual Counselor.
She was born in Walla Walla, Washington and has traveled world wide teaching Reiki, psychic development classes and mediumship. She has practiced Reiki healing and Intuitive counseling for years.
Her psychic abilities began as a child after having a near death experience through drowning at the age of four. Her grandmother was a Mexican "Curandera" and told her she would one day practice healing energies as well. Although, she tried to disprove her grandmother's prediction, she eventually realized that living through Spirit means following the call to service. She has been the facilitator and creator of many Reiki Circles around the world and has taught many people how to use Reiki to improve their lives. She believes anyone can learn Reiki and that we all have the ability to change our lives.

Laurie Anderson is a Life Coach certified through the Fearless Living Institute in 2006. Early on, she was a piano teacher, Elementary Ed. and Special Needs teacher.  Coaching, with the premise that people already have their own knowing and their own answers that a coach helps to draw out, seemed the next right step.  
Since that time, Laurie has added the powerful tool of EFT or tapping with clients (certified in levels I & II), along with many other tools and techniques.  She is also a Reiki Master Teacher and a LEWA reverend.
Laurie is just as delighted as her clients when they have those ah-ha moments!  She is passionate about helping clients see where they are stuck in old patterns and offering new perspectives and tools to really make positive, lasting changes to support them in moving towards a life they are excited about.

I have been a Family Nurse Practitioner for over 40 years. In 2005, I received a Divine message that I am here to help heal the hearts of humankind. I knew this was a turning point and that it was imperative that I begin with the healing of my own heart. I was introduced to the HeartMath Program, studied deep breathing and visualization through the Silva Mind Technique, took Medical Intuitive Training, learned the Emotion Code, worked with Healing Touch, became a Reiki Master, have been certified in Integrative Energy Therapy and studied and practiced Clear and Compassionate Communication.I have owned two businesses, ‘The Heartfelt Healing Center’ in Boone, NC and ‘Joyful Awakenings’ in Richmond, IN. The primary intention supported releasing mental and emotional patterns that are no longer beneficial for a healthy, loving and compassionate heart and integrating new beliefs that create harmony within the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual energies of our essence.As one heart heals, it radiates love and light out to families, communities and nations. I believe we have the courage and the wisdom to change the world so that we create a most glorious transcending symphony.
