Somatic coaching is a body-based approach to personal transformation. Unlike traditional coaching, which focuses mostly on your thoughts, or therapy, which often looks to the past, somatic coaching works with what your body is experiencing right now. Your body holds patterns that talking alone can't change. The freeze during conflict. The tension in your chest. The urge to shut down or flee. These are nervous system responses, not mindset problems. You can't think your way out of a triggered state, but you can learn to shift it. Somatic coaching helps you notice how your body, emotions, and thoughts interact. You begin to track your internal patterns, regulate your nervous system, and respond with more clarity and choice. This work changes more than your thoughts. It changes how you experience your life, your relationships, and your sense of power. It is direct, effective, and rooted in the intelligence of your whole self.
When and why should I seek Somatic Coaching?
Because you deserve support that actually helps. Seeking help is an act of radical self-care. It’s a refusal to stay stuck in pain, disconnection, or confusion. If you’re not feeling vital, alive, or in touch with your power, that’s a sign. You don’t have to wait for things to get worse. If your relationships are unraveling, your body is sending stress signals, or the same emotional patterns keep looping, it’s time to do something different. Most of the time, things don’t just resolve on their own. The behaviors and beliefs that created the struggle will keep repeating until you interrupt them at the root. Somatic coaching helps you get to that root. This is body-based, trauma-informed support that moves beyond talk. When you work with your nervous system, not just your thoughts, change becomes real and it lasts.
Are you the right somatic coach for me?
Like any relationship, the connection between client and coach matters. You should feel safe, seen, and able to be fully yourself. The right fit can take time to find. Trust your instincts. I’m not the right somatic coach for everyone. My style is candid, curious, sometimes irreverent. I bring compassion, precision, humor, and a body-based approach to deep transformation. I work best with people who are ready to show up, try things, and get real. If I don’t think I can help, I’ll tell you that—transparency is part of the work. That said, I love my clients. I only work with people I know I can support. This work can be intense, but it can also be joyful. Laughter, play, and creativity are part of the healing process too.
What makes somatic coaching successful?
Somatic coaching works when you show up for it. Your commitment to your own healing, presence, and practice is what creates change. You’ll get out of this process what you’re willing to put in. Between somatic therapy sessions, take time to notice your body’s responses, reflect on what’s shifting, and keep returning to what matters. This is deep work. It takes courage. You’ll know it’s working when your life starts to feel more aligned. You'll noticed that your nervous system is steadier. Your relationships feel more honest and connected. Most importanly, when your body begins to feel like a place you want to live. That’s how somatic transformation shows up.
How much does somatic coaching cost?
My fee is based on the outcomes you want and what I believe it will take to get you there. I don’t bill hourly. Instead, I offer a clear estimate at the beginning of our work together, so you understand the financial investment upfront. I work in 3, 6, and 12-month coaching containers. Most private engagements range from $3,900 to $18,000, depending on the depth and scope of the work. You can choose to pay in full or in installments. For corporate agreements, pricing depends on the number of people involved and the overall scope of the engagement. This work is an investment in your transformation. Many people prefer to pay session by session without a clear arc or outcome. I work differently. Think of it like remodeling your kitchen—you set a vision, commit to the process, and stay focused until it's complete. That structure helps you plan and stay engaged with the work that matters. I only take on three private clients at a time. That means when we work together, you have my full presence and attention. I am fully on your team.
What do I need to know about your practice?
Can I book a somatic coaching appointment online? The way the process works is that we have a complimentary initial call, to determine whether we both work well together. At the time of that call, I'll share with you information about how my practice works. I work in intensive, short-term containers, depending on your needs and goals. I will then provide a written estimate of the bespoke somatic coaching plan I will construct especially for you. Once you have submitted your deposit, we will schedule your first session. FYI, I often have a waiting list of about 2-3 months.
Is my information kept confidential? Absolutely. Anything you discuss with me in somatic coaching sessions will be completely confidential. Additionally, I adhere to professional standards of confidentiality.
Do you offer online somatic therapy sessions to folks in places besides San Francisco or NYC? Yes. Most work is online. Sometimes clients fly into Asheville for intensive work. I will fly to you for intensive engagements.
What is your cancellation policy? I have a strict 48-hour cancellation policy. Should you need to cancel your somatic therapy appointment, kindly give me 48 hours' minimum notice. If you are more than 15 minutes late for your session without communication, the session is canceled and you are responsible for the full fee of your session.
