For Individuals:
Sustainable change, happiness and harmony starts with YOU! Somatic Coaching helps you understand the self-regulating signals of your nervous system, the wise intelligence of your heart, the boundary-holding powers of your gut brain, and the holistic interconnections in your body. As you begin to know your body from the inside-out, many beneficial changes occur: your nervous system relaxes so your health improves, mood swings stabilize, anxiety and depression lift away, and your capacity for life's wide variety of experiences increases. Your self-confidence improves so you can take the next steps forward in your life.

For Couples:
When each person develops a relationship with their own body and understands how to regulate their own nervous system, relationships can flourish and become mutually supportive and uplifting. Exploring somatic awareness as a couple and learning exercises in how to negotiate touch, how bodies co-regulate and how to communicate resourcefully creates a solid foundation for a securely-attached partnership.
