About Dr. Kim Podlecki
My Path to Integrative Care
After years working in veterinary medicine, I experienced firsthand the emotional toll of burnout and professional exhaustion, something many professionals in caregiving fields know all too well.
​
While I deeply value evidence-based medicine, I began searching for ways to support my own wellbeing alongside routine care. That search led me to Reiki, meditation, and energy work as complementary practices, not alternatives.
​
What began as personal healing quickly became transformative.
Bridging Medicine and Energy
Through dedicated study and practice, I became a Certified Reiki Master and experienced how gentle energy work could restore balance, calm, and clarity — both physically and emotionally.
​
In 2021, I founded RENEW Veterinary Consulting to advocate for greater emotional health and wellbeing within the veterinary profession. From that vision, RENEW Reiki was born: a practice rooted in clinical understanding and guided by compassionate, integrative care.
My background as a veterinarian shapes every Reiki session I offer. I bring a deep respect for anatomy, physiology, and evidence-based treatment — while honoring the role energy awareness can play in supporting whole-being health.
My Approach
I believe healing should feel safe, grounded, and supportive.
​
Reiki, as I practice it, is gentle, non-invasive, and always designed to complement medical or veterinary care. Whether I’m working with a person, an animal, or a caregiver, my focus is on creating a calm space where balance and relaxation can naturally unfold.
