Services

Individual 1 on 1 somatic sessions can provide

• greater access to your experience via your body - I work from the wisdom that our felt sense (body sensation) experience is the entry point to all experience.

• embodied tools for more generative, connected, and joyful relationships

• processing developmental trauma through building steady, embodied relationship and working with your body to remember supportive somatic tools that can help you digest + integrate trauma

• practice being embodied in relationship with self, loved ones, other than human kin, ancestors, and all of life

• re-shaping* embodied white supremacy, colonialism, and oppression and practicing joyful embodied dissent and desire

• creating a crisis plan that centers community care rather than carceral systems, and supports your body as it shows up in crisis

• creating connection and communication through plural systems (in the psych world often known as DID)

• processing relational conflict and intensity, + practicing skillful embodied ways to be with intensity

  *reshaping is language from Alta Starr of generative somatics.

I tend to work best + have experience with mad folks that the state really doesn’t like, especially people with BPD or otherwise stigmatized emotional presentations, folks experiencing relational chaos, mass shooting and mass violence survivors, non-carceral suicidality support and care, folks wanting to engage in ancestral reconnection work, death work, transitional work, facilitating presence with intensity, and providing support around gender, emotions, and neurodivergence with teenagers (ages 13-18).

I believe and have experienced myself and with multiple clients that our most wounded places are sacred and hold power if we can witness and hold them in the context of safe-enough relationship. This includes the wounds that white supremacy, domination, and colonialism perpetrate and amass on our bodies, which in my experience also create intense shame, rage, guilt, and fear - just as much so as developmental traumas might.

My work is to give you tools where you can trust your own body wisdom in this journey, and to provide steady support (a rope and resources) so that -you- know you can go to your deepest darkness and return to integrate that experience as a holy gift rather than a persistent terror.

Rates:

My ongoing session rate for 60 minute individual sessions is $165-$215/hr. Ongoing work is committing to 8 sessions or more.

White folks who have access to: savings or Vested funds of more than 3x their monthly rent, a house they have purchased, or a partner who supports them are asked to pay at the high end (or MORE) on the scale.

Because of the structure I utilize of relational work, 8 sessions are required for ongoing work. I am happy to offer 3 introductory sessions before the 8 session sequence for you to determine if this is the right container for you.

I offer sliding scale of $60/session for Black, indigenous, racialized folks, as well as disabled or working class (sex worker, gig worker, food service) trans folks. At this time (2/16/2024), I have no sliding scale spots open. If you would like to be waitlisted for a slot, please email me thru my contact form.

Somatic Healing/Coaching should not be considered mental health therapy, and does not diagnose mental illness.

One-off sessions are for you to:

• explore how working together might feel, without committing to the full 8 sessions required for ongoing work

• address a specific issue that needs tending

• receive non-carceral based crisis support for arising crisis (please note that I do not provide sliding scale for crisis sessions at this time)

• discuss ways to support a friend who is experiencing crisis and receive tools for somatically supporting yourself in this situation

Rates for one-off sessions are $175/session.

If you are requesting a one-off session for crisis work, please indicate this when scheduling. Please note that I am not a crisis line and sometimes cannot respond urgently; if you need urgent support and I am not responding, please seek support elsewhere. If the date/time you are seeking is not listed, it is not available.

Somatic Healing/Coaching should not be considered mental health therapy, and does not diagnose mental illness.

In relational group work, we might explore:

• navigating conflict between couples/group members

• somatic practices to do as a group for strengthening relationship and communication

• group practices of embodied connection with land, ancestry, animals, other than human kin

• ways to practice embodied accountability with one another

• working with harm and repair from the perspective of embodied transformative justice

• creating closer, intentional relationships using somatic practices together.

or whatever else you’d like to practice in your bodies!

Sessions are 75-90 minutes depending on themes and number of people involved. Session rate is $175-250/hr - this can be split between members of the group.

pick my brain! I offer professional peer consultation around the following:

• non-carceral crisis resources and framing

• working with trans, neuroqueer, and disabled clients

• disability justice framing

• divesting from professional licensure

• how to structure a small business as a neuroqueer person

Fees for Peer Consultation are sliding scale $150-$200USD. I can offer select lower sliding scale spots ($100-$125) to QTBIPOC, low income transfemme, or disabled trans practitioners. (if you are cis/cishet, have low debt, have partner financial support, or own a home, please choose the highest fee on the scale)

Note: this is for peer consultation ONLY. for business, nonprofit, or organizational consulting, please email me for my rates.
