You Were Made
for Connection
Missed Connections
We were made for connection.
But it is easy to lose track of our own experience. When we're feeling disconnected from ourselves we can't help but feel disconnected from others.
We get irritated at home and at work.
We have a hard time giving attention to things that matter to us.
We feel pulled in too many directions.
Stress, disordered relationships, and difficult circumstances can encourage us to feel anxious, frustrated, powerless, or out of control.
When life gets crazy we feel disconnected.
Healthy connection leads to clear direction.
You can't steer a car by letting go of the wheel and you can't steer your life by ignoring your body.
Your body is giving you important feedback about your relationships and the world around you. Somatic coaching can help you give attention to your emotions, experience, and behavior so you can make meaningful and safe choices about the direction you want to take.
As a somatic coach, I'll teach you the skills to use, and create opportunities for you to practice and improve your capacity for healthy connection and choice. That way, you can meet challenges with calmness and clarity and choose actions that fit with your purpose and goals.
How will you use your capacity for connection?
Somatic Coaching Session
Learn skills to help you stay calm and connected when facing challenges.
In a one-on-one coaching session I will help you identify the ways you use your body to respond to challenges emotionally and behaviorally. As your awareness of your experience grows, I'll help you explore opportunities for different choices in a safe, controlled environment so you can meet life's challenges with effective and meaningful action.
Private sessions are available by appointment at the rate of $115/50 minute session.
