The things you can't say out loud

"I'm so tired of being the strong one."

"I don't even know who I am outside of what I do for other people."

"Something from my past is still running me and I don't know how to stop it."

"I've tried therapy, I've tried journaling. Why is nothing sticking?"

About

Dr. Lyda Kermani

Doctor of Acupuncture in Chinese Medicine · Reiki Master · EFT Certified Coach

Lyda's journey began in 2015, not in a clinic, but in the middle of her own pain. After her parents' divorce, the grief, anger, blame, and avoidance she was carrying were eating her alive from the inside. She knew something had to change.

In 2018, she was introduced to EFT tapping. For the first time, she felt what peace could actually feel like in her body. Not as a concept. In her body. In 2019, she enrolled in a four-year doctoral program in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, was introduced to Reiki, and opened her private practice, helping people through tapping and Reiki while still in school.

It wasn't until 2023 and 2024, in her final years of clinical training, that she began integrating all three modalities in the same session. Something incredible happened. Patients were healing more deeply, uncovering important truths, finding peace faster than she had ever seen. That's how the ART Method was born: discovered, not invented.

The ART Method

Most practitioners work one layer at a time. The ART Method works the nervous system, the energy body, the mind, and the emotions. All in the same session. The change compounds because every layer is addressed at once.

01Conversation + Mind

Awareness

Awareness

Using reflection and guided conversation, Lyda identifies what is truly holding you back, often before you've named it yourself. This is the cognitive and relational opening of the session.

02Heart + Nervous System + Meridians

EFT Tapping

EFT Tapping

Tapping opens the heart, regulates the nervous system, and creates movement through the body's meridians, helping you witness your fears and patterns with less resistance.

03Energetic Field

Reiki

Reiki

Working with your energetic field, Lyda listens to the intelligence of your body and shifts what has been stuck. The session is guided by what your body itself communicates.

04Physical Body + Five Elements

Acupuncture

Acupuncture

Acupuncture opens the body's portals and creates a pathway for deeper balance, bringing mind, body, and spirit into harmony across the five elements.

The Shift

Where you've been.
Where you're going.

Before

Anxious. Always on. Never fully off.

Exhausted in a way sleep doesn't fix.

Losing yourself in what you do for everyone else.

After

Regulated. Calm. Safe in your own skin.

Clear. Present. Trusting yourself again.

Remembering who you are.

How We Work Together

All sessions are conducted remotely, starting May 2026.

Lyda works with patients anywhere in the world.
If you are in the San Diego area, you can experience in-person sessions until May.

Clients in virtual sessions report the same sensations as in-person: heat, release, a felt shift in the body, without a needle in sight. That's not a coincidence. It's how energy medicine works.

In a remote ART session, Lyda works with your energetic field through presence, intention, guided awareness, and tapping. What changes is not physical contact. It's your nervous system responding to the work.

Remote energy work has been practiced in Chinese medicine for centuries. The body doesn't need to be in the room for energy to move.

Lyda has made such a difference in my way of life over the past few months! Not only does she heal but she teaches as well and I find myself constantly using the tools I have been given through reiki and coaching with her. As someone who was previously a "nonbeliever" I am 100% converted and highly recommend trying a new method of treatment!

Kayli

Every time I see Lyda, I leave feeling lighter. Her positivity and warmth as she has guided me through my healing journey has been transformative. I look forward to every session with her and am so thankful to have her with me on this journey.
