Private Coaching

What is somatic coaching

“Somatic” simply means of the body.

While my coaching absolutely involves the mind, it places a special emphasis on the felt experience of the body—sensations, emotions, breath, and physical patterns.

Where traditional mindset coaching or talk therapy often focus on history, story, and analysis, somatic coaching brings you into direct contact with your present-moment experience.

Rather than just talking about your challenges, we explore how they live in your body — and how they can begin to shift through awareness, movement, and breath.

What kinds of things do people come to you for?

People come to me when something in their life doesn’t feel right—but they can’t always name exactly what it is.

Some feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in old patterns they thought they’d outgrown. Others are navigating big transitions—parenthood, burnout, identity shifts, grief—and need a space to land, reflect, and move forward in a more grounded way. Often there is just an intuitive sense that there is something more that they don’t yet have full access to.

Many clients have done some therapy or personal work already, but they’re looking for something more embodied, present-moment, and outside-the-box.

This work helps them slow down, reconnect with themselves, and start showing up differently—in their relationships, work, and inner life.

How is this different than a private breathwork session?

While breathwork may still be part of our work together, these sessions are more spacious and adaptive. We will draw from a broader range of tools—like guided inquiry, parts work, reflective conversation, and other somatic processes. It all depends on what you’re showing up with that day.

Is this like therapy?

Not exactly, but there is some overlap.

We may work with past experiences, emotional patterns, and unconscious beliefs—sometimes in ways that feel familiar if you’ve done therapy before.

But this work isn’t clinical. I don’t diagnose or follow a fixed method. It’s less about talking and more about feeling what’s here, now. My approach is more experiential, body-based, and relational. It’s less about fixing and more about meeting yourself honestly and learning to move through life with more awareness and choice.

Many people who’ve done therapy find this work complements or deepens what they’ve already explored.
