Somatic Presence Sessions

Welcome!

I'm so glad you're here.

My name is Melissa, and I offer one-on-one somatic presence sessions online via Zoom, weaving in several modalities that I've been studying for over twenty years. 

These sessions are a place for you to come and be present in your own body, with a clear and gentle witness. I hold space for the wisdom of your own body to come forth, and you are the guide for where the session goes. You may have a specific thing that you want to focus on, or we may simply settle and ask the body what it wants to reveal. Inevitably, we may go on a journey of discovery within, while also learning tools along the way to cultivate a more present and embodied relationship with our bodies, our truths, and our heart.

This work is gentle, intuitive, authentic and powerful. Each time is different, depending on the energy of the day and your body's capacity. We may discover old memories, ancestral material, prenatal experience, hidden gifts, resources for our heart, clarity and wisdom, inner pools of sadness, the fire of anger, new expressions, freedom of movement where there was freeze. We may learn new landscapes of your inner worlds, finding pieces that were isolated and bringing them back home. We may remember who you are in ways that were forgotten.

My work combines Somatic Experiencing (currently at Beginning II level), the healing tools I learned during my 1000-hour Holistic Health Practitioner training, my work as a doula, intuitive insight, flower and plant magic, and my years of creativity coaching as an intuitive art teacher. In a way, I've been doing this work as long as I can remember, and am finally trusting in its power and ripeness to just go ahead and share it already.

I am here to hold space and witness the beauty of your heart.

I am here to reflect your own brilliance so that you remember.

I am here to help you unwind the knots of trauma that hold you back from being your natural, authentic, unique self. 

What are you here for?  Let's find out!

Sessions are 60 minutes and are available on a sliding scale. Please choose the exchange that honestly aligns with your financial capacity.

I will send you a waiver to fill out within a few hours of your registration, as well as more details about how to prepare for our session. I look forward to being with you.
