Dr. Leslie Wester (she/her) is the owner of Healing Unicorn, where your journey to self-discovery and inner peace begins. A Reiki master, Reiki teacher, yoga teacher, self-care specialist, and overall unicorn who completed her doctorate of education (EdD) in 2025.

Leslie was first introduced to Reiki in the early 2000s when her Mother became a Reiki master and began sharing the universal energy with her. In 2018 Leslie received her first and second attunements with Usui Reiki and began practicing on friends, family, and animals. With a lifelong affinity for crystals and healing energies, Leslie has always been drawn to this path. Despite attempts to resist the calling, in 2025 she has embraced this role to guide and support others and completed her Reiki master and Reiki teacher trainings.

Leslie has been practicing yoga since the early 2000s as well, finding time on her mat. In 2024 she was called to be officially trained as a yoga teacher and began teaching classes and workshops across Chicago and the near northwest suburbs. Leslie enjoys combining Reiki into her yoga classes and workshops whenever she can.

With Healing Unicorn, Leslie is a devoted energy worker, Reiki master and Reiki teacher, yoga instructor, and overall unicorn inviting you to explore the powers of mindfulness, movement, and energy healing. She believes that once we learn how to quiet the noises around and within us, our true healing begins.
