Somatic Transformational Coaching

---

Are you feeling stuck at a crossroads, overwhelmed by stress, and yearning for deeper fulfillment but struggling to make meaningful changes?

Somatic coaching offers a powerful path to reconnect with your inner wisdom and compass. 

Somatics is a field of study and practice that highlights the profound connection between body and mind. Instead of approaching the body from the outside or solely through intellectual understanding, somatic practices invite us to attune to our inner experience, listening deeply to the wisdom our bodies hold and engaging with their innate capacity for insight and healing.

Our bodies carry the stories of our lives—all the joys, emotions, challenges, and patterns shaped by our nervous system. Over time, difficult experiences can leave imprints that show up as pain, tension, chronic illness, or a sense of stuckness and disconnection. Yet, by reconnecting with our bodies and cultivating a deeper relationship with them, we can access a profound pathway to rediscovering our innate wholeness.

Traditional approaches to understanding the psychology of change often focus on mindset alone, overlooking the body and subconscious. However, your body—which is deeply connected to your subconscious, autonomic nervous system, and brain—plays a pivotal role in shaping the choices you make in life.

By tuning into your body's natural rhythms, somatic patterns, breath, and areas of tension—you can unlock a powerful pathway to transformation. Somatic coaching helps you step out of old patterns, release limiting beliefs that no longer serve you, and reconnect with your inner strength and resources. This work supports you in showing up in the world fully and authentically, making life choices from a centered, grounded place where body, mind, and soul are aligned.

This approach may resonate with you if you:

• Are at a crossroads, feeling stuck in your patterns or decisions and seeking clarity, confidence, or alignment in your next steps.
• Want to develop healthier habits and better self-care but feel trapped in repeating patterns like perfectionism, people-pleasing, over-giving, chronic stress, tension, or burnout. You may have tried talk therapy, mindset work, or affirmations and are curious about a different, body-centered approach.
• Long to reconnect with your body, intuition, and a deeper sense of self.

No, somatic coaching is not a replacement for therapy, medical treatment, or other forms of professional healthcare. It is a non-medical, educational approach focused on personal growth, self-awareness, and body-centered exploration. If you have specific medical or psychological concerns, please consult a licensed healthcare provider. Somatic coaching does not diagnose, treat, or prescribe for any conditions.

Sustainable change takes time. Insights and internal shifts need integration to lead to lasting transformation. While some clients feel profound shifts early on, others find that small, gentle, incremental changes over time are more supportive, especially if they are navigating high levels of stress or overwhelm.

A typical coaching engagement includes:

• A commitment of 6 months to foster meaningful progress.
• Weekly sessions at the start, transitioning to bi-weekly as needed.
• Long-term support tailored to your unique journey, particularly during major life transitions.

Each session provides a safe, collaborative space for exploration and growth. Sessions last approximately 50-60 minutes and are conducted via Zoom, with in-person options available for clients in the San Francisco Bay Area.

In-person option: 

For clients in the San Francisco Bay Area seeking acupuncture, separate acupuncture sessions are available to complement their somatic coaching journey. 

My approach to somatic healing and coaching is Presence-centered and developmentally focused, helping you access the resources available here and now. This work is not about fixing what’s “wrong” or forcing change—it’s about recognizing wholeness and tapping into the innate wisdom and resilience already within you.

I honor the multi-dimensional layers of human experience. Besides somatic practices and nervous system theories, I also integrate principles of compassionate inquiry, imaginal work, intuition, energy healing, Chinese medicine, and spirituality to support your unique journey. Together,  we co-create a safe, nurturing space for clarity, resilience, and empowered change.
