The doorway into the work of Soma Structural Integration (Soma) is through the endless web of connective tissue known as fascia. Fascia is superficial, deep, and touches all structures in the physical body.

The doorway into the work of Soma Structural Integration (Soma) is through the endless web of connective tissue known as fascia. Fascia is superficial, deep, and touches all structures in the physical body. Through the fascial fabric, the intention is to find balance, ease, options, resources, and integration in the body while in gravity. Often, these changes require the tissues to mobilize in ways that may feel unfamiliar, even emotional, as pockets of resources & held patterns are made conscious, move, and integrate into the system. I am here as a friendly guide & resource as we learn to listen & trust the innate wisdom & healing capability of the body.

My style of Soma combines practical biomechanic problem solving with deep listening and a cultivated empathetic inner vision. As a professionally trained engineer and a somatic intuitive, this yields bodywork sessions that are practical, sensitive, subtle, gentle, deep & individualized. Sessions may include: hands on work (subtle fascial activation & release, deep point work, mobilization, etc.), cranial work, pelvic floor work, intra oral work, before and after photos, movement re-education, body readings, channeled messages, emotional release, mindfulness techniques, and embodied anatomy. Energy cannot be separated from the physical experience and energetic shifts are a natural part of the somatic process.

I offer a classic Soma Structural Integration 11 series, custom series work, stand alone sessions, and treatment work.


Biodynamic Cranial

Gentle, deep, subtle and profound. The biodynamic interface allows us to access resources and unwinding in the physical body without an agenda. As a practitioner, my intention is to attune to quietude & to allow the clients innate somatic intelligence to guide the session. This work is physical, but may also present in ways that feel energetic or shamanic. This way of working is also present in... Read More

Gentle, deep, subtle and profound. The biodynamic interface allows us to access resources and unwinding in the physical body without an agenda. As a practitioner, my intention is to attune to quietude & to allow the clients innate somatic intelligence to guide the session. This work is physical, but may also present in ways that feel energetic or shamanic. This way of working is also present in my Soma sessions, but is made explicit here. Appropriate for all body types. More info here:

Soma Institute graduate in 2016. Worked as a Professional Civil Engineer for 9 years previously, with a focus on water system planning for municipalities. In a way, I’m doing what I’ve always done: looking to nurture fluidity, health and aliveness in physical structures.

I enjoy working with teens, young adults, other practitioners, queer/trans folks, the retired, psychonauts, the highly sensitive, the ‘numb’, and anyone sincerely seeking support in occupying the space of their body. My intention is to hold space for movement towards health. I want my clients to trust their bodies, and to move with authentic, grounded intelligence.

Inquire for sliding scale + pro bono sessions for those in the BIPOC and Queer/Trans communities.

Tipping is not expected. Any payment above the shown rates goes to support my sliding scale work.
