Danielle Norton-Hippert listens closely to her heart song. She has a loving nature that tends and guides others to their own heart songs, connecting them with their inner peace, purposeful journey, higher power, and authentic selves. Since a young age, Danielle has been curious about spiritual and holistic practices. She has a deep love of nature, Spirit, and her friends and family. These innate qualities led Danielle to more extensively explore the healing arts and become an Usui Reiki Master in 2024. She studied under the tutelage of Pamela Hawkins of The Circle of Spirit. 

Danielle pursued a BA in psychology with the intention of studying expressive arts therapy. While working with youth at-risk during this time, she felt a strong pull toward education. She earned her master’s in teaching and has been teaching English Language Arts with middle schoolers since 2007. 

Danielle continually remains open and curious on her own path to healing. In addition to her Reiki practice, Danielle has been ordained as an Interfaith Minister through the Universal Life Church. She lives in Rochester, New York with her incredibly supportive husband, three amazing, spirited daughters, and a loving rescue pup named Skywalker.
