The Story Behind Monarch Healing Space


Monarch Healing Space was born from my own personal healing journey. After experiencing profound grief following the loss of my father, I turned to holistic practices like Reiki and massage therapy for support. Through this, I discovered firsthand how calming the body could bring emotional balance in ways that traditional therapy alone sometimes could not.


This realization inspired me to create a space where healing happens not only through conversation but through the body's natural ability to reset itself. Monarch Healing Space is a reflection of my belief that true wellness must address the mind, body, and spirit together.


My approach is rooted in compassion, presence, and respect for each individual’s unique path. Whether you are navigating grief, managing anxiety, or simply seeking to reconnect with yourself, Monarch Healing Space is designed to offer you a gentle landing place—a sacred space for transformation, renewal, and self-discovery.


Healing is not linear, and it’s not rushed. Here, your journey unfolds naturally, at a pace that feels right for you.

About me

Welcome! I’m Dr. Dana Matthews, a dedicated healer with over 20 years of experience in mental health counseling and holistic wellness. My background includes serving individuals working through grief, anxiety, depression, and emotional transitions.

After years of witnessing the powerful connection between emotional well-being and physical health, I expanded my practice to include therapeutic massage and Reiki healing. These modalities allow me to support clients beyond talk therapy—helping the body itself to relax, restore, and heal.

I am passionate about providing an environment where both emotional and physical healing are honored. My work combines evidence-based mental health practices with intuitive bodywork, offering a comprehensive and compassionate approach to wellness.

At Monarch Healing Space, you will find a judgment-free zone where your healing journey is respected, nurtured, and guided with expertise and care.
