Modern Healer
Academy
A 16-week certification for aspiring healers & practitioners who want to turn their calling into a career and become the practitioner people can't stop talking about.
If you feel called to use your gifts to genuinely
change people's lives...
- If you've known for a while that healing work is your path, but you want to do it properly, with real training and certifications to back it...
- If you dream of running your own practice on your own terms, booked with clients who seek you out specifically...
- If you want the certifications, the skills, AND the embodied confidence to hold space for real transformation, not just a piece of paper...
- If you're done with surface-level weekend courses that send you out the door underprepared and want training that actually transforms you as a practitioner...
- Or maybe you just want to go deeper into your own healing journey first. That's part of this too.
The Modern Healer Academy is for you.
I'm ready →- ✔You've been feeling called to healing work and you're finally ready to commit.
- ✔You're already facilitating in some capacity and want proper training and certifications behind you.
- ✔You want Reiki certifications backed by real depth, not just a weekend and a piece of paper.
- ✔You desire to hold space that's safe, ethical, trauma-informed, and genuinely transformative.
- ✔You believe in the power of energy, intuition, and the body, and you want to master working with all three.
- ✔You want a business built around your gifts, your values, and your life.
- ✘You're not willing to do your own inner work first. In this program, the healer goes first. Always.
- ✘You can't commit to the in-person certification weekends, these are non-negotiable for your attunements.
- ✘You're in financial distress and this commitment would put genuine pressure on you. We want you building from groundedness, not desperation.
- ✘You have unprocessed trauma or significant mental health challenges you aren't currently supported with. This work goes deep.
Where you're going.
"I feel called to this but I'm terrified I don't know enough, I'm not grounded enough, and I'll fall apart in a session..."
A certified, embodied, trauma-informed practitioner who trusts herself completely, with the skills to hold space for real, lasting transformation.
You will be...
A certified Reiki Level 1 Practitioner
A certified Reiki Level 2 Practitioner
A trauma-informed practitioner
A confident, ethical space holder
An embodied healer who deeply understands the energetic body
A practitioner who trusts their intuition completely
Someone who can confidently open, hold & close a healing session

You will have clients
banging down your door.
Here's what happens when healers are trained the right way.
Say goodbye to...
- ✘Feeling like a fraud who hasn't "earned" the right to call yourself a healer
- ✘Freezing in sessions or second-guessing every intuitive hit
- ✘Offering healing for free because you don't feel ready to charge

Hear it from the healers.
I feel incredibly grateful to have completed my Reiki Level 1 training with Sinead. Not only is she a wonderful teacher, but she is also someone who genuinely cares about the people she works with. From the moment the training began, she created a warm, safe, and supportive space where I felt completely comfortable to learn, ask questions, and explore Reiki at my own pace.
Sinead has a beautiful way of sharing her knowledge that is both professional and deeply heartfelt. Her passion for Reiki shines through, and her calm, nurturing presence made the whole experience feel very special. I came away from the training with a much deeper understanding of Reiki, greater confidence in my practice, and a real sense of empowerment.
What stood out most to me was Sinead's authenticity and kindness. She teaches from the heart and truly wants her students to grow and benefit from the experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone considering Reiki training or healing sessions. It was a privilege to learn from her, and I look forward to continuing my Reiki journey with her guidance.

Sinead
Galligan
Sinead Galligan is the founder of the Modern Healer Academy, and one of Sydney's most sought-after Reiki practitioners, with a year-round two-month waitlist.
But her path to this work didn't begin in a classroom. It began in a doctor's office, where she was told she had an irreversible autoimmune disease, and that falling pregnant naturally was unlikely.
She didn't accept that as her story.
What followed was years of turning inward, turning to natural healing, and trusting what the medical system told her not to. She is currently reversing her autoimmune diagnosis. She fell pregnant naturally. And she built one of Sydney's most loved healing practices from the ground up.
She also brings over a decade of formal training and lived experience in trauma, mental health, and counselling, which is why her sessions and her teaching go far beyond what most Reiki training ever touches. She holds space for the whole person, the nervous system, the emotional history, the story that lives in the body.
Now Sinead is on a mission to train the next generation of healers properly. Not just with attunements and techniques, but with the confidence, the ethics, the intuition, and the embodied presence to genuinely change people's lives. And the skills to build a practice that lets them live on their own terms.
She knows what it means to be told something isn't possible. And she knows exactly what becomes available when you stop believing that.
