Somatic therapy recognizes that your body can hold onto experiences, emotional memories, and that the natural capacity for healing can be interrupted. While talk therapy works primarily with thoughts and understanding, somatic work includes your body's wisdom things like tension patterns, nervous system responses, and physical sensations.

(A core part of Vybology teaches you to become skilled at riding life's waves by noticing when you're getting pulled into shutdown or overwhelm, releasing what's keeping you stuck, and finding your center again so you can stay connected to your natural vibe and vitality).

We listen to what your body knows, not just what your mind thinks. Your body might hold tension in your jaw, shoulders, or hips. It might have patterns of bracing or responses that happen before you even realize it. All of this information helps guide our work together.

Instead of just learning to cope with symptoms, we explore why your body developed certain patterns in the first place. When we understand how your nervous system created these responses to keep you safe, we can help it release. Doing so often leads to symptoms naturally dissolving and new ways of thinking, feeling, and responding. Doing this work in a therapeutic relationship also begins the creative blueprint for your day to day relationships.

Somatic therapy is particularly effective for people who feel "stuck" in old patterns despite understanding them intellectually, especially those dealing with trauma, anxiety, or feeling disconnected from their body.

This healing work is unique because it's deeply collaborative. Unlike medical procedures where you're passive, somatic and relational healing requires your active participation and wisdom. We always go at your pace, building safety and trust as we gently tend to and heal what was wounded.

Vybology emerged from my own healing journey with chronic autoimmune symptoms. My work was informed by highly sensitive nervous systems, and what I've learned is that sensitive people signal what's healthy for all of us.

I know your body is incredibly resilient. Vybology is my integration of somatic therapy, IFS, and nervous system science, recognizing that you already possess everything needed for healing. It honors your body's intelligence and helps you develop fluency in its language.

Healing and living a good life is simpler than we've been led to believe.

You’ve done talk therapy and feel like you’ve reached all you can with that particular modality.

If you experience anxiety and stress in your body, if you have a sense that your body holds answers you haven't accessed yet, or if you're drawn to healing that includes your whole self, not just your thoughts, then somatic work might be exactly what you're looking for.

Trust that sense. It got you right here to read this.

Your body called you here for a reason. Also if you have a strong pattern to get in your head and try to make sense of things, everythig about yourself, people, and life in general. You’re in the right spot.

Our first session is about connection and understanding what brought you here.

We'll touch on your history, current challenges, and what you're hoping to experience. I'll explain how somatic work functions and we may begin with some gentle body awareness practices.

Most importantly, we'll start building the safety and trust that allows your nervous system to begin unwinding its protective patterns.

TRE® (Tension & Trauma Release Exercises) activates your body's natural tremoring mechanism for discharging stored stress and trauma. I

t's gentle, non-invasive, and works with your body's own wisdom rather than forcing anything.

You'll learn 7 exercises that invite your nervous system to release what it's been holding. Many people feel more relaxed, grounded, and resilient after TRE® sessions. It's remarkably effective for anxiety, insomnia, and chronic tension.

No. Somatic work can be incredibly effective without retelling your story. Your body knows what happened and holds the capacity to navigate the healing without your mind having to relive the details.

While you're always welcome to share what feels important, it's not required for healing to occur. We can work with what your body is experiencing right now, in this moment at your pace.

No you do not.

Psychedelic integration helps you make meaning from expanded states of consciousness and embody the insights in daily life. If you've had psychedelic experiences, whether recent or years ago, integration work helps translate those experiences into lasting transformation.

However, you absolutely don't need psychedelic experience to work with me. The personalized somatic and integration skills we develop are valuable for anyone seeking deeper self-acceptance and authenticity.

Natural altered states also tend to be accessed and integrated with this kind of treatment.

Healing isn't linear (it’s layered) and everyone's timeline is unique. Some people notice shifts after just a few sessions, while others find deeper work unfolds over months or years.

I'm here to support whatever pace feels right for your nervous system and overall goals. Many clients find that even small changes create ripple effects that transform how they feel in their body and how they move through the world and relationships.

Quality of experience matters more than speed. We can always take breaks when it feels right and can move with the seasons of nature and your life. It’s about the therapeutic relationship too and being able to communicate your needs as they evolve.

Yes, I offer both in-person and online sessions. While there's something special about sharing physical space, somatic work can be remarkably effective online.

Your nervous system can attune to safety and support through the screen, and many of the practices we'll explore work beautifully in your own environment. We'll find what works best for you.

Yes, we talk. Our conversations are different from traditional therapy because we're tracking both your words and your nervous system responses. We listen to what your body is saying.

We might pause mid-sentence to notice what's happening in your chest, or explore how a memory lives in your shoulders, or work to uncover emotional truths/beliefs for deeper understanding and transformation.

Sometimes we'll spend the entire session talking and processing. Other times, especially during TRE® sessions, we might talk very little and focus primarily on movement and body awareness.

Your system guides what's needed. Some days you need to be witnessed and heard, other days your body needs to move and release without words. Both are valuable and part of your unique healing process.

Wear comfortable clothes that allow for easy movement: think yoga attire or loose, breathable fabrics, even pajamas.

For TRE® sessions, you'll be lying on the floor, so layers are helpful. No special preparation is needed beyond arriving as you are. Your body will guide us to exactly what's needed in each moment.

Consider bringing a photo of little you, to session…one that you feel connected to. After all that little version is who we are honoring during this somatic process.

I operate as a private pay practice, which allows me to offer the specialized time and attention your healing deserves without insurance limitations.

I can provide you with a superbill for potential reimbursement from your insurance company. This would require me to give you a diagnosis.

Yes, I maintain a set number of sliding scale spots that open up as my schedule allows. Please reach out to be added to the list.

Trust that uncertainty. I offer a brief consultation call where we can explore your questions and see if we're a good fit.

There's no pressure to commit to anything beyond that conversation. Your intuition about hesitation or doubt about what you need is valuable information, and I want you to feel completely aligned with whatever choice you make about you.

Most clients begin with weekly or bi-weekly sessions, then adjust based on what feels supportive. Some people work intensively for a period, while others prefer a more gradual approach.

As you develop confidence, momentum, and consistency in your process, sessions can become less frequent or go from 50 minutes to 30.

We'll always follow what your system is asking for rather than a predetermined schedule.
