You’ve probably heard the phrase “the body keeps the score.”

It’s true, our bodies remember what our minds try to move past. Overwhelm, stress, grief… even if you don’t consciously think about them, your body often carries the imprint through tension, fatigue, or numbness.

My somatic sessions are conversational, and we slowly include the body in that dialogue. Rather than hyper-fixating on pain (what's wrong), I help you notice what’s here now: a deep breath, a softening in your chest, the way your shoulders drop when you feel understood.

These moments matter. They’re how your nervous system begins to recalibrate. Learning to recognize what feels pleasant, grounded, or easeful isn’t about chasing comfort; it’s about building your ability to feel safe, connected, and present in your body again.

That isn’t a side piece of the work; it’s one of the main pillars. Reconnecting with what feels good, true, and alive is how healing takes root and how we begin to experience life differently from the inside out.

We engage with the patterns that keep you stuck, and help you recognize what you need and what you truly want.

A somatic session with me is a guided conversation that includes your body in the process.

We talk about what’s been happening, the challenges, the changes, and also what’s been feeling good or nourishing.

As we explore, I’ll invite you to notice how your body responds, the small cues, sensations, or shifts that show how your system is taking it all in.

We don’t try to fix or avoid anything. Instead, we make space for the full range of experience, the effort and the ease, the tension and the settling, so your body has the chance to integrate what it’s been holding.

This way of working helps you reconnect with a deeper sense of inner knowing. Over time, you start to recognize not just when something feels too much, but also when something feels right, what supports your aliveness, your boundaries, and what you truly want more of in your life.

Most of us notice our bodies when something hurts, tightens, or feels stressful, but sometimes we forget the cues that feel good or bring ease.

This gentle women’s somatic circle is an evening to slow down, move softly, and reconnect with your body in simple, everyday ways. Through grounding practices and shared presence, you’ll practice noticing comfort, calm, and ease, not just tension or triggers, without pressure or performance.

As we step into 2026, instead of promising yourself to change when you’re depleted, let’s support your nervous system this year.

When you’re exhausted, your brain keeps promising “Next week I’ll finally get it together” while your body quietly says, “I can’t keep doing this.”
You power through work, kids, relationships, the to-do list…but the tight chest, shallow breath, and foggy mind never really go away. Then you blame yourself for not having more discipline.

What you actually gain from building your window of tolerance

• Go from snapping or shutting down to pausing, breathing, and saying what you really mean in hard moments.

• Go from wiped out after a normal day to having energy left for you…your creativity, friendships, what lights you up.

• Go from riding anxiety or numbness all day to feeling steady in your body, even when life stays full.

This isn’t more willpower. It’s widening your capacity so thaf the shifts you crave actually stick, because your system finally feels safe enough to hold it.

Step into a life that feels meaningful, spacious, and alive from the inside out.

Welcome to the Era of Thriving

If you’re like so many women, you know the body of stress: the tight shoulders at the end of the day, the tense belly you carry to bed, the chest that feels just a little too tight with worry or anxiety. Over time, it starts to feel normal, and you forget what ease in your own body actually feels like…calm, joy, curiosity, and a deep sense of aliveness.

This space is for the woman who has “tried a lot” and is still exhausted. The one who is holding so much together…work, kids, partnerships, family, and secretly wonders if this constant managing is all there is. You might be tired of talking about the same stories, wary of being pushed into big emotional releases, and longing for something deeper that actually feels safe, gentle, and real.

Here, you are guided back to your own felt experience and life force. Together, we use nervous system principles, Somatic Experiencing®, and gentle exploration of what feels nourishing, alive, and true in your body. We explore how your system may have learned patterns of guilt, shame, or shutdown, and how to slowly reclaim awareness, choice, and a fuller sense of aliveness in your daily life. All of this happens through conversation and body‑based awareness.

This work is about learning, noticing, and gently remembering what actually feels good and right in your body, at your own pace, without pressure, without needing to “fix” yourself.

Instead of promising yourself more goals and resolutions when you’re already stretched thin, you are invited to something different: to get to know what you truly want, what really matters to you, and how it feels in your body when something is a yes, a no, or a maybe. We start exactly where you are, even if thriving feels far away right now, bit by bit, in small steps your body can easily hold.

If you recognize yourself in these words, you’re already at the doorway.
Step into your Era of Thriving.

When you know what you want, what matters, and how it feels in your body, confidence follows.
