In-person programs

Service overview

As a somatic practitioner, intimacy guide, and embodied leadership mentor, I work with individuals who are ready to return to their bodies, transform outdated patterns, and live from a deeper sense of truth. Everything I offer begins and ends with one essential principle: presence.

Presence is not a concept, it’s a felt experience. It’s the moment when the body feels safe enough to reveal what’s real. It’s the space where transformation becomes possible, not through force or fixing, but through deep listening, attunement, and connection.

Working in presence in the same physical space opens a unique and powerful field. It allows for direct attunement, where bodies can co‑regulate in real time, breath can lead the way, and subtle cues from the nervous system, posture, and touch become part of a living conversation. In‑person sessions offer the full spectrum of my tools: from myofascial energetic release and dearmouring to somatic tracking, breath, sound, and energetic presence. This work meets what lives not just in the story, but in the tissues, supporting the release of tension, stored emotions, and unconscious holding patterns that are often harder to access through words alone. It’s not better or deeper than online work, it’s simply a different gateway, one that can feel especially supportive when the body is asking to be met with contact, precision, and embodied safety.

People come to me when they feel disconnected from their body, overwhelmed by life, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve. They may be navigating transition, burnout, intimacy challenges, or leadership roles that require more than performance, they require embodiment. Some come because they’ve tried to “fix” things through mindset and willpower and are now ready to try something different: slowing down, listening inward, and allowing truth to emerge from the body itself.

Others arrive with a longing for deeper intimacy with themselves or their partner, or with the desire to lead from presence rather than pressure. In presence, I offer a deeply held, relational space, one where you don’t have to perform, rush, or explain. You are met exactly as you are, with attunement, clarity, and care. From that place, transformation unfolds not because we force it, but because the body remembers how to find its way home when it feels truly met.

For individuals

• Myofascial Energetic Release Bodywork Sessions

  

  In my in‑person sessions, we work directly with the fascia, the intelligent, sensitive connective tissue that weaves through every muscle, bone, organ, and nerve in the body. Fascia doesn’t just hold us together structurally; it also holds the imprints of our experiences. Physical injuries, emotional trauma, unexpressed feelings, and habitual patterns of posture or movement, all of these live in the fascia. It is the fabric of embodiment, and it stores what the mind often forgets.

  When we meet in presence, we meet the fascia not as something to be fixed or forced, but as something to listen to, trust, and gently invite into a new state of awareness. This work is not about deep pressure or pushing through resistance. It’s about meeting the body with precision, patience, and profound attunement, inviting it to reveal what it has been holding, sometimes for years or decades.

  My hands are trained to feel layers, layers of density, silence, emotion that lives just beneath the surface. Through slow, intentional touch and presence, I help the tissue unwind its own story, in its own time. This isn’t “just” bodywork. It’s a deeply integrative experience that touches the physical, emotional, energetic, and psychological dimensions of who you are.

  Fascia is alive. It communicates, protects, and adapts. But when the system is overwhelmed by trauma, stress, suppression, or life lived too fast, it tightens. It braces. It holds. This protective contraction can become chronic and unconscious, showing up as pain, fatigue, numbness, rigidity, or emotional shutdown. We start to feel “off,” disconnected, stuck in patterns that no longer serve, but we can’t always explain why.

  In our sessions, I work with the fascia as a portal, a way back into relationship with your body’s wisdom, your emotional truth, your instinctual knowing. As tension softens and sensation returns, so does the capacity for breath, vitality, pleasure, and presence. This is not about “releasing” for the sake of release, it’s about restoring your aliveness.

  You may experience this work as grounding and tender, or powerful and catalytic. Often, it is both. The process can stir old emotions, longings, memories, or insights that rise naturally as the body begins to feel safe enough to open. We follow the body’s pace, not the ego’s agenda. There is no rush. There is no performance. Just a slow and steady return to truth.

  These fascia‑focused bodywork sessions are for anyone ready to reconnect with their body, shift long‑held patterns, and feel more anchored, alive, and whole. People often come to me with: chronic physical tension or pain that hasn’t shifted with other approaches, emotional numbness, dissociation, or difficulty feeling, burnout, nervous system dysregulation, or “living in the head,” sexual disconnection or a desire to awaken their sensuality, a longing to feel more embodied, grounded, and present in everyday life, the sense that something is off, but they don’t yet have the words for it.

  I work with individuals of all genders, backgrounds, and body stories. Some are at the start of their somatic journey. Others are seasoned in therapy or self‑development but know they need to go deeper into the body itself. Some are navigating grief, trauma, or major life transitions. Others are simply curious, ready to experience what lives underneath the layers of control, performance, or survival.

  You don’t need to have a clear reason to come. The body always has something to say, even if the mind doesn’t yet know the question.

  Each session is deeply individualized. We begin by arriving, landing in the space, connecting with your breath, and attuning to what your body is asking for. From there, we move into hands‑on work: slow, conscious, fascia‑based touch that listens more than it does. I may work along specific lines of tension, areas of stagnation, or follow intuitive cues from your body’s rhythm and response. Sometimes we stay in one area the entire session. Sometimes the body wants to travel.

  This is not a quick fix or surface massage. It’s a journey inward, layer by layer. You may feel warmth, tingling, emotion, insight, or subtle energetic shifts. You may also feel deep rest, a sense of being fully met, or a quiet inner “yes” that you haven’t felt in a long time. After sessions, clients often report increased clarity, emotional release, improved posture and breath, more sensual connection to their body, and a profound sense of spaciousness.

  I hold space with respect, presence, and deep care. Consent, boundaries, and communication are central to this work. Your body leads – I simply walk with you as it remembers how to listen, feel, and reorganize.

• Dearmouring Bodywork Sessions

  

  Dearmouring is the art of softening the armor the body has built physically, emotionally, and energetically. In these sessions, we don’t force change or bypass resistance. We meet it with respect. We listen. We wait until the body is ready to let go of what it no longer needs to hold. This work is not about breaking through walls – it’s about creating the conditions for those walls to melt, from the inside.

  The armoring we carry isn’t wrong. It’s intelligent. At some point, it was a form of protection. A way to survive pain, chaos, intrusion, or emotional overwhelm. But over time, what once protected us can become a prison. We disconnect from our sensations, lose touch with our boundaries, bury our desires, and begin to live from the outside in – performing life rather than feeling it. Dearmouring invites a different path: a return to embodied presence, to truth, to intimacy with yourself.

  In this work, I use conscious, attuned, and trauma‑informed touch to meet the body where it’s tense, braced, or numb. I track your system’s subtle cues and communicate clearly every step of the way. With your consent and collaboration, I help you unwind layers of contraction – whether they show up as physical holding, emotional shutdown, energetic freeze, or a sense of absence from certain parts of the body.

  These sessions are not about intensity. They’re not about fixing or rushing. They’re about reawakening the body’s ability to feel and to choose. Dearmouring is about giving you your body back, on your terms. It’s about helping you remember that your sensitivity is not weakness – it’s your power.

  At its core, dearmouring is a somatic process that works with the layers of protection we develop over time. These layers can be physical (tight fascia, chronic tension), emotional (repression, numbness), or energetic (blockages, disconnection, dissociation). The armor may have formed after experiences that were “too much, too fast, too soon” (as Peter Levine describes trauma), or from the slow buildup of unmet needs, boundary violations, or unsafety in relational dynamics.

  Armoring often shows up in places like the jaw, diaphragm, belly, hips, pelvis, throat, and chest. These areas are rich with nerve endings, emotional memory, and instinctual intelligence. When we soften them – not with pressure, but with presence – we often access more than physical relief. We touch grief, longing, anger, joy, sensuality, or deep rest. We meet parts of ourselves that were buried to survive.

  Sometimes, we begin with more subtle work: gentle holding, fascia‑based touch, breath awareness, and nervous system regulation. Other times, we go deeper into the physical layers of contraction, working with precise strokes along the body’s armoring maps to invite softening and release. All of this unfolds with your full agency and in collaboration with your body’s cues – not from a goal to “release everything,” but with a deep respect for pacing and safety.

  Why People Come to Dearmouring Sessions

  People are drawn to dearmouring for many reasons. Some are feeling stuck – numb, shut down, or disconnected from their body and sensuality. Others are living with chronic pain, emotional overwhelm, or energetic stagnation. Many have done years of therapy or self‑development work but know there’s something deeper stored in the body that talking alone hasn’t reached.

  Some come with very clear intentions: to reconnect with their pleasure, reclaim lost parts of themselves, or prepare for a new phase of life or relationship. Others arrive with a quiet sense of longing – something they can’t name but can no longer ignore. You don’t need to have all the answers to come to this work. You just need to feel the pull to return to yourself.

  Dearmouring supports: reclaiming sensitivity and embodied pleasure, processing stored emotional pain and frozen grief, releasing chronic muscular tension or somatic holding, reconnecting to your boundaries and desires, returning to embodied safety and nervous system regulation, cultivating intimacy with self and others, awakening your full‑body yes (and full‑body no).

  This work is for anyone regardless of gender who is ready to feel more, to carry less, and to live from within. You don’t have to be “broken” to benefit. You just must be willing to show up and meet yourself, with support.

• Somatic Experiencing Sessions

  

  Somatic Experiencing® (SE) is a gentle yet powerful approach to trauma resolution and nervous system regulation. In these sessions, we don’t relive the past – we renegotiate it. We work with the body’s innate capacity to heal, restore balance, and complete what was once interrupted. This is not talk therapy. It’s body‑led. It’s slow, intuitive, and deeply respectful of the intelligence your system holds.

  My Somatic Experiencing sessions are designed to support people who want to feel more grounded, more present, and more able to meet life without collapse or overwhelm. Whether you’re navigating the aftermath of acute trauma, living with the subtle impacts of developmental trauma, or simply feel disconnected from your body and vitality, this work can meet you where you are.

  Trauma isn’t what happened to you. It’s what got stuck in your system when you didn’t have the safety, support, or capacity to process it. That survival energy – fight, flight, freeze – gets trapped in the body, creating symptoms like anxiety, numbness, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, hypervigilance, digestive issues, emotional shutdown, and more. SE offers a way to complete those incomplete responses gently, without force, so that your body can return to a regulated, more resilient state.

  While SE is often practiced through verbal and movement‑based tracking, in in‑person sessions, I also incorporate hands‑on somatic touch when appropriate. Touch, when offered with permission and precision, can be a profound tool for co‑regulation and repair.

  Many people have never experienced truly attuned, safe touch. Through gentle contact – such as placing a hand on the kidneys, spine, sacrum, or diaphragm – I support your body in settling. These are not massage techniques. They are subtle, presence‑based invitations for the nervous system to unwind. This kind of touch speaks directly to the autonomic nervous system and supports deep rest, integration, and a return to trust.

  Hands‑on SE may help the body: track sensation more clearly, access interoception and proprioception, release bracing or contraction, feel supported in areas that have felt abandoned, complete unprocessed stress or trauma responses.

  Touch is always optional and is used only with your consent. The goal is not to “do something to you,” but to offer a relational field in which your system can reorganize itself.

For couples

Couples Sessions: Embodied Relationship Work Rooted in Presence

For couples who are longing for deeper intimacy, more authentic connection, and the kind of love that includes both the light and the shadow, I offer in-person sessions rooted in somatic awareness, presence, and sacred relational work. This is not traditional talk therapy. It is not about fixing each other or simply resolving conflict. This is a space where you meet fully, honestly, and in the body. A space where your relationship becomes a living, breathing presence between you, inviting both of you into growth, vulnerability, and deeper love.

Couples come to this work for many reasons. Some arrive in a moment of crisis or disconnection. Others are navigating transitions – parenthood, relocation, betrayal, or change in sexual desire. Some feel stuck in looping patterns of blame, shutdown, or resentment. And others come because they know their relationship has the potential to hold more aliveness, more pleasure, more truth and they are ready to explore how to unlock that.

In person, we work not just with words, but with bodies, energy, presence, and touch. I guide you in slowing down, in tuning into your sensations, in listening not just to what is said but to what is felt. We meet what lives beneath the surface – unmet needs, old wounds, survival strategies, and unconscious roles – and we explore how they shape the dynamic between you. You learn to witness each other with fresh eyes. To speak your truth without defense. To feel what has long been avoided. And to relate from presence, not from pattern.

My in-person couples sessions are anchored in somatic practices, nervous system awareness, and relational truth-telling. I bring together tools from Somatic Experiencing®, dearmouring, polarity, inner child work, and conscious communication. Each session is shaped by what is alive in the moment – your bodies, your nervous systems, your emotions, and the relational field between you.

We work with the physical and energetic space between you. Sometimes that means exploring how you touch and are touched. Sometimes it means navigating conflict with more compassion and awareness. Other times, it’s about reawakening sexual energy, emotional availability, or the sense of trust that may have been lost along the way. This is intimate work. Tender. Raw. Honest. And profoundly life-giving.

One of the unique aspects of in-person work is that we can include body-based practices and hands-on guidance. This might look like supported eye-gazing to reestablish emotional presence, breath practices to regulate your nervous systems together, postural adjustments that reflect relational dynamics, or co-regulation exercises that help you feel safer in each other’s presence. Sometimes we integrate sacred touch, guided rituals, or partnered embodiment practices that help you experience each other beyond words.

In-person sessions often feel like a ritual – a sacred container where everything is welcome, and nothing has to be fixed. We move between stillness and expression, softness and strength, grief and desire. Each session is a journey into the present moment, into the truth of what your relationship is asking for now.

The core of this work is presence: the capacity to show up as you are, without bypassing, blaming, or collapsing. When both partners are supported in being with what is actually happening in their own bodies and between each other, something softens. The nervous system relaxes. The heart opens. New possibilities emerge.

Polarity is often a central theme. We explore the dance between the masculine and feminine – not as rigid roles, but as energetic qualities within both of you. Often, relationships lose charge or tension because these polarities are collapsed or reversed. We look at how safety, softness, leadership, receptivity, desire, and devotion are being expressed or not, and we begin to reweave a dynamic that feels alive, magnetic, and nourishing.

Sacred sexuality may also be part of the journey. This is not about performance or techniques, but about learning how to feel again. How to be present in intimacy. How to let desire arise from within, naturally. Many couples come with a longing to reignite sexual connection, and through this work, they discover that desire is not something to chase – it’s something to meet, through the body, in real time, with presence.

We also include shadow work, where we explore the unconscious forces at play in your relationship. You’ll begin to recognize the projections and power struggles that keep you stuck and learn how to transform them into conscious, creative tension. Through inner child exploration, you see how early attachment patterns may still be shaping the way you love, the way you fight, and the way you protect your heart.

Every couple has their own rhythm and journey. Some choose to work with me through single in-person sessions. Others opt for immersive experiences custom-designed sessions that unfold over a full day or multiple days, giving you space to drop deeply into the work without the pressure of time. These immersions allow us to integrate somatic bodywork, communication rituals, partnered practices, and rest into a rich and potent experience.

While in-person work offers the depth of co-regulated space, online sessions are also available to support your integration and continued growth over time. Many couples begin with an in-person immersion and then continue with regular online sessions to sustain the momentum, revisit tools, and keep the intimacy alive. The online space is not less powerful, it simply invites a different kind of presence, one that can support the integration of what was opened during our time together face-to-face.

This work is for couples who are ready to grow together. Not through blame or performance, but through honesty, embodiment, and love. It’s for partners who are willing to meet their own edges, who are tired of surface-level connection, and who sense that something deeper is possible.

You don’t need to be on the brink of separation. You don’t need to be in crisis. You simply need a desire to reconnect to yourself, to each other, and to the love that brought you together. I will meet you there, in presence, with the tools, depth, and attunement to support your relationship’s unfolding.

Your relationship is not a problem to solve. It is a path to walk, a sacred ground where truth, healing, love, and transformation can all find a place. Whether we meet in a session room or in the intimacy of an immersive experience, I will hold the space for you to come back to each other with tenderness, clarity, and embodied connection.

Next level Intensive for couples or individuals

This is not a retreat. This is not a fixed program or a curated escape. This is a raw, real, and intimate space where we meet life exactly as it is and allow it to show us the way. Whether you come alone or with your partner, these 1 to 5-day intensives are a deep dive into presence, truth, and embodied living. We journey together, side by side. We live the work.

These immersives are tailor-made. Nothing is pre-scripted, and there is no formula. Each day is shaped around what unfolds moment to moment, what your body reveals, what your nervous system is ready for, what your relationship is asking to be seen. The depth comes not from doing more, but from doing less with greater awareness. It’s about landing in your body and learning how to be with what’s there, not to fix it, but to relate to it with honesty and care.

This is sacred space, not in the ceremonial sense, but in the deeply human sense. The sacredness comes from presence. From choosing to show up fully. From allowing all parts of you to exist without needing to perform or be productive. We slow down. We get honest. We feel. And we let the body lead.

Life as the Teacher, the Body as the Guide

In these immersives, we use everything that arises as material for exploration. Your triggers, your silence, your longings, your laughter, your discomfort it all belongs. We weave together daily bodywork, somatic experiencing, embodiment practices, shadow inquiry, and inner child work. But beyond the modalities, we live the work in real time.

We may have formal sessions. And we may not. The deepening often happens between the moments: over breakfast, during a shared walk, in the space after a bodywork session, or sitting in silence watching the sun move across the sky. Every moment becomes part of the field. Nothing is separate. Life itself becomes the mirror.

For individuals, this is a space to meet yourself in ways you haven’t before beyond the mind, beyond the story. To reconnect with the wisdom of your body. To feel the survival patterns that once protected you and now quietly run the show. To soften the internal freeze. To allow anger, grief, desire, tenderness to rise and be met.

For couples, this is an invitation to meet one another in a new field, one where masks drop and truth rises. Where old relational dynamics can be felt, named, and integrated with care. Where you rediscover not just your connection, but your shared capacity for presence. This isn’t about fixing your relationship. It’s about making space for what’s real so something new can emerge.

You won’t leave this experience with a list of techniques. That’s not what this is. What you leave with is a felt sense of yourself, your relationship, your truth. A deeper ability to stay with what’s alive in you. A capacity to meet discomfort without collapse or reactivity. A knowing that you can trust your body again.

We may work with touch, movement, voice, or breath. We may drop into silence or activate energy. Sometimes the most transformational moment is a quiet tear that finally falls. Or the deep exhale that arrives after years of holding it all together. We follow what’s alive not what’s impressive. This work is not performative. It’s relational. It’s deeply human.

If you’re coming with your partner, you’ll be invited to experience each other through new eyes. To witness and be witnessed. To learn how to hold and be held. Not just physically, but emotionally, somatically. You’ll explore polarity, communication, co-regulation, boundaries, and connection but not through a model. Through direct, lived experience.

Structure Without Rigidity

Each day has a loose structure. We work in blocks of time, guided by your system’s capacity and the natural rhythm that emerges. We may begin the day with a grounding practice or bodywork, followed by time in nature or space for integration. We might have a more focused session in the afternoon, or drop into open-ended inquiry together. We share meals, rest, and conversation. There’s time for integration, time for stillness, time for breath.

You’ll stay in accommodation nearby, and we’ll spend several hours each day in connection, whether in direct session or in shared life moments that become the work themselves. This is not about intensity for intensity’s sake. It’s about attunement. It’s about allowing your nervous system to feel safe enough to reveal what it’s been protecting.

We don’t rush. We don’t perform. We listen. And we trust what unfolds.

Who This Is For

This is for those who are ready to go beyond concepts and into the body. For those who want to meet themselves or their partner with honesty, courage, and care. For those who sense that the next step isn’t more knowledge, it’s deeper presence.

You may be at a transition point, holding something you can’t name, or simply feeling the call to reconnect with what matters. You may have done years of therapy, coaching, or personal work but something in your body still feels tight, guarded, or disconnected. Or maybe you’re simply longing for real connection with yourself, your partner, your life.

This is not about fixing. It’s about remembering. Returning. Reclaiming.

These immersives are not for everyone. They’re intimate, alive, and honest. If you’re ready to be met and to meet yourself or your partner in a new way, I invite you to reach out. We’ll have a call to explore whether this is the right space for you, and if so, we’ll shape your experience together.

This is not a performance. It’s a homecoming.

You don’t have to be ready for everything. You just have to be willing to begin.

Next level immersive for Leaders and Visionaries

This is not a retreat. It’s not a getaway. And it’s certainly not about learning another set of tools to perform leadership better. This is about coming back to the root of your being so that who you are becomes the source of how you lead.

These 1-to-5-day intensives are tailor-made, in-depth immersions for leaders, visionaries, creatives, entrepreneurs, and space holders who are ready to meet themselves at the edge. This is an embodied reset and a return to truth. You come not to add more but to strip back everything that is no longer aligned with who you are becoming. This is about the next level of leadership one rooted in presence, integrity, and deep listening to the body.

I live alongside you during this time. We create a co-regulated, relational field in which nothing is separate. It’s not a series of sessions. It’s a lived experience. From the moment we begin, we step into a shared field of awareness, where every moment is an opportunity for reflection, revelation, and integration. This may include bodywork, somatic experiencing, trauma renegotiation, polarity work, breath, stillness, movement, shadow exploration, nervous system repair, and the sacred art of doing nothing.

We walk, we cook, we drink tea. We sit in silence. We cry, laugh, unravel. We dive into the places that often get overlooked in fast-paced leadership spaces, the parts of you that are still holding the pressure to hold it all together. The internalized patterns of pushing, proving, controlling, or rescuing. The drive to over-deliver and the fear of being too much or not enough. Here, we slow down and rewire from the inside out.

This is leadership beyond performance. Leadership that doesn’t cost your health, your relationships, your joy. Leadership that begins with nervous system capacity, with embodied clarity, and with inner polarity. We work with your internal masculine and feminine, your capacity to create structure and to surrender, to hold and to feel, to take aligned action and to receive deeply. We explore how your body holds your patterns, and how your energy leaks when those patterns run the show. Instead, you learn to lead from regulation, responsiveness, and relational depth.

This work is not scripted. There is no fixed curriculum. We don’t need one. Life will present exactly what’s needed. And we meet it fully, with breath, with presence. I am not here to coach you. I am here to walk beside you. To listen to your body. To mirror your truth. To hold you accountable to what you already know but may have forgotten.

These intensives are for leaders who have already done "the work" but are ready to go deeper. Who are ready to step out of the solo-heroic model and into relational awareness. Who are ready to stop bypassing their body’s signals in the name of productivity. Who are ready to stop overriding intuition with pressure. Who are ready to feel fully, love deeply, and lead from their core.

You don’t need to be burned out to say yes to this. But if you are, this will meet you. If you’re in a moment of transition, recalibration, or expansion, this will anchor you. If you’re feeling disconnected from your inner fire, your relationships, your voice, this will help you come home.

We work in presence. We listen to what is. We meet what’s next not by chasing it, but by becoming available to it. This is the next paradigm of embodied leadership: not strategy first, but soul. Not performance, but integrity. Not pushing through, but pausing long enough to let the deeper truth emerge.

These immersives can happen anywhere we agree on, whether in your environment or mine. They’re shaped around your nervous system and your capacity. We stretch, yes. But we never force. We move between deep process work and integration, between structure and spontaneity. You will leave changed, not because you’ve learned something new, but because you’ve remembered what’s already inside you.

This is for you if: You want to lead without self-abandonment, You’re tired of holding everything alone, You’re craving relational depth that matches your vision, You’re in transition and want clarity without the noise, You’re ready to live and lead from presence, not patterns.

Over 1, 3, or 5 days, we create a container where your nervous system gets to recalibrate, where your body gets to release, where your inner compass comes back online. This is not work for the faint of heart. But it’s for the brave ones the ones who know that true leadership starts within.
