Kathleen Riley McCarthy, ACCP, DEH, WHEE, ADS, is the Co-Founder and Owner of Potions & Prayers along with her husband Chris McCarthy.  She is also the Founder and Integrative Holistic Health Practitioner of The Dove House, a healing and wellness center. Her intention to start Potions & Prayers was based on the need to raise money for The Dove House, a 501(c)(3) Non-Profit, in support of trauma survivors.

McCarthy has been helping clients tap into their authentic selves for over fifteen years, teaching easy and effective self-healing techniques that relieve anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress and pain. She has authored books on personal growth and energy medicine including What You Feel is Real, Everyday Miracles and Healing & Wellness Beyond Recovery. 

She earned her B.A. in Communications from Michigan State University in Lansing, MI, and holds a Certificate in Integrative Holistic Health from Energy Medicine University in Sausalito, CA. She is certified in Auricular Acupuncture Detox for the reduction of alcohol cravings and drugs, including nicotine, and for the relief of stress (PTSD), grief, emotional trauma and pain.

McCarthy is a graduate of the Advanced Corporate Coaching Program with Corporate Coach U, Inc., and is a certified chaplain with the International Fellowship of Chaplains.
