A private clinic in Durham, supporting women’s mental, emotional and nervous system wellbeing.
Integrative, trauma-aware care helping the body settle, regulate and feel safe again.
Treatments and professional Reiki training
Reiki • Tsuboki • Nervous System Led Therapy & Bodywork
People come when stress is no longer just in the mind but being held in the body. Tension, fatigue, emotional load, anxiety and difficulty switching off.
When the nervous system is under strain, the body cannot rest, repair or regulate properly., this work supports the nervous system to settle, so the body can function more effectively again.
Led by Leanne Barker, Integrative therapist, Reiki Master Teacher and former NHS nurse.
This is a clinic-based practice offering both hands-on and online sessions. Treatments and Reiki training are grounded in physiology, nervous-system regulation and long term stability, not quick fixes or surface-level relief.
The work is especially supportive for people experiencing burnout, anxiety, emotional overload, chronic stress or those who have been “coping” for far too long.

My Purpose and Mission
At Holistic Care Durham, my work is simple and practical:
I help people calm their nervous system, release long-held stress, and feel steady in themselves again.
I work with people who are burnt out, anxious, emotionally overloaded, or who have been “coping” for far too long. My approach is grounded, compassionate, and focused on what your body and mind actually need, not quick fixes or surface-level relaxation.
I am an integrative therapist and Reiki Master Teacher, with a background as a former NHS nurse. That means I work safely, professionally, and with a strong understanding of the nervous system, emotional health, and the body as a whole.
Alongside 1-to-1 therapeutic work, I also teach Reiki professionally, supporting students to build confident, ethical, and grounded practices of their own. Teaching is a core part of what I do, not an add-on.
Whether you come to me for hands-on therapy, Reiki, nervous system support, or professional training, my intention is the same:
To help you feel more regulated, more connected to yourself, and better able to live your life.
Holistic Care Durham is a calm, supportive space both in person and online where real healing and real learning can happen.
