BOOK A FREE CHEMISTRY CALLHow much does a session cost?
Sessions typically range from $100–$175, depending on length and type of service.
My goal is to make this work as accessible as possible, so I offer sliding scale pricing based on the Green Bottle Method, and I am open to non-monetary forms of payment (e.g. trades of goods or services).
Please complete the New Client Survey for access to more details pricing info.
Who should not do Somatic Coaching?
While Somatic Coaching is suitable for most people, I am not a certified trauma specialist, so folks with CPTSD, complex trauma, or acute trauma may be better served by seeing a licensed therapist, psychologist, or trauma specialist.
If trauma does reveal itself during our time together, I can support you by connecting you with a trauma specialist in my network.
Can I do therapy and Somatic Coaching?
Yes! Somatic Coaching pairs well with other healing and therapeutic modalities, including CBT or talk therapy. In general, Somatic Coaching is a good addition to any existing mental health regimen.
How do you address working across differences in race, gender, class, physical ability, and other social locations?
While I am generally comfortable working across social locations, I ask all new clients to start with a free 1-on-1 Chemistry Call so we can meet and get a sense of whether I will be the best Somatic Coach to help you meet your goals. During the Chemistry Call, I’ll make space for us to discuss social locations.
If you’d prefer to work with a Somatic Coach who shares specific social locations with you, I’d be delighted to connect you with a Coach in my network who would be a more suitable fit!
Where can I learn more about the lineage and methodology?
The Strozzi Institute's Somatic Coaching program is the world's first and most comprehensive of its kind, using a methodology that has been fine-tuned over the past 50 years and is ICF-accredited.
The methodology blends body-based practices, mindfulness, martial arts, action-oriented communication, and generative conflict training, among many other influences in its living lineage.
I am a commitment to releasing perfectionism and finding joy in learning.
I am a commitment to self-discipline for the sake of my aliveness.
