Reveal - Refine - Recirculate
Under suffering there is a wholeness. Underneath tension and aggravation, there is ease. Separation aches for reconnection. Our first job, uncover our strengths hidden under injury.
Our second job, develop a relationship with our once-hidden gifts and learn to use them skillfully.
The final act, SHARE. To create with ease and give freely from the heart of our embodied transformation.

After a Journey or Support for Current Exploration
Soma (somatic) Integration is a practice that happens after a transcendant exploration or in support of a current deep-dive into yourself. You just got back from a psychedelic trip. Maybe you’re reading The Body Keeps The Score and have a sense there is no demarcation between body, mind, emotions, consciousness and that we have to work with it all. Maybe physical therapy or talk therapy helped, but didn’t close the circuit. It is time for integration.
Last-Mile Delivery
One of my clients came to me for hip and back pain in support a Rolfing Series. We stabilized her back and mobilized her hips, but it wasn’t until we discovered her calling to create art and she started painting that her life became mostly painless. With another client we were able to piece together the message from a rainbow striped tiger in his ayahuasca journey, that integrating trauma of his past is exactly how he deepens empathy with those that are suffering. He is now following the call to be a healer. The job of soma integration is to manifest the message into the body, into a body of work, and deliver your calling.
What does a session look like?
Whether we start from an injury, pain, trauma or returning from transcendental retreat, our job is the same: reconnecting. We build bridges, with breath, between mind, body, consciousness, and invite anything that is unconscious to unite as well. Learning to feel emotions we’ve hidden is just as important as re-learning to use a hip damaged after surgery. Sometimes they are the same thing. We mobilize the mind, body and consciousness together, so you can manifest your message.
My role
My role is to find a balance where your highest / deepest expression can come forth. Sometimes we will stabilize a joint that needs boundaries. Sometimes we will release the diaphragm to settle the nervous system. To me, breath work IS body work, and the body is currently the container of your consciousness. My role is to bring connection and ease to the system, so you can do what you are called to do in life.
My first psychedelic experience came after decades of pain and eventually from a deep self exploration through yoga, breathing / meditation (apparently still legal in the US). Back then, integration was not a thing, I had no help and somehow I knew this would one day be my job. Soma Integration is my answer to the calling.
Pretty much all of my work comes from referral and word of mouth. If interested in working together, please reach out to discuss if this is right for you. If we have worked together before or you are being referred from a personal or professional source, you can book your sessions here.
