What all options have in common
All offerings are:
Gentle, body-based, and non-verbal
Grounded in the Feldenkrais Method®
Trauma-informed and consent-centered
LGBTQIA2S+ affirming
Adaptable for chronic illness, hypermobility, and fluctuating energy
Designed to reduce masking, not require it
You’re never asked to push through pain, perform, explain yourself, or “do it right.”
There isn’t one “right” way to do this work.
Different nervous systems need different levels of support, structure, and flexibility — especially during burnout, chronic illness, or times of high demand.
Below are the current ways to work together. You’re welcome to read through them slowly and see what feels most supportive right now.
There’s no obligation to choose anything today. You can always change your mind.
You can try a lesson to see what it feels like:
You don’t need to do the whole lesson, and you can revisit the recording any time you like.
One-to-One Somatic Movement Sessions
Who this is for
This option may be supportive if you:
Want personalized, attuned support
Are navigating burnout, chronic pain, or sensory overload
Need help sensing what’s happening in your body in real time
Want support with boundaries, self-advocacy, or decision-making
Have tried other approaches that relied too heavily on talking or effort
What sessions are like
In 1:1 sessions, we work gently with:
Small, comfortable movements
Attention and sensing (not analysis)
Rest, pauses, and choice
Online sessions are guided verbally, but you are never required to talk about your feelings, name sensations, or explain what you’re experiencing. In-person sessions generally involve touch, but can be verbally guided if preferred.
You’re encouraged to:
Not look at the screen
Fidget or stim if you like
Do what you need to take care of yourself
Rest whenever you like
What people often notice over time
Feeling calmer and more regulated
Earlier awareness of stress, pain, or overwhelm
Increased trust in body signals
Less crashing after social or sensory demands
Greater ease with boundaries and self-advocacy
If you’re interested in 1:1 sessions, I recommend scheduling a Discovery Call so we can discuss your needs, you can ask any questions, and you can see if it feels like the right fit to you.
Practical Details for Online 1:1 Sessions
Format/location: Online, verbally guided
Initial session (option to try before committing): $150, 75 minutes
Package: 6 x 60-minute sessions over 2 months - $900 (payment plans available)
Availability: I work with a very small number of 1:1 clients at a time to ensure care and sustainability. Appointments are available Monday through Wednesday, 10am-5pm Eastern.
You’ll find a quiet spot in your home where you can lie on the floor in view of your camera. Depending on what feels supportive for your body that day, we may also work in sitting or standing, or you can lie on your bed if needed.
I’ll verbally guide you through personalized movements that help you sense your unique patterns, explore different variations, and find easier, more comfortable ways to move. There’s no need for you to look at the screen or describe any of your sensations. You’re encouraged to rest whenever you like and do whatever you need to take care of yourself.
Sessions are quiet, unhurried, and responsive to what’s happening in your body in real time. We work gently and moment by moment, following your needs, capacity, and curiosity rather than a fixed plan or outcome.
Practical Details for In-person 1:1 Sessions
Format/location: Hands-on in Rosman, North Carolina
Initial session (option to try before committing): $150, 75 minutes
Package: 6 x 60-minute sessions over 2 months - $900 (payment plans available)
Availability: I work with a very small number of 1:1 clients at a time to ensure care and sustainability. Appointments are available Monday through Wednesday, 10am-5pm Eastern.
In-person 1:1 sessions (also known as Functional Integration® or FI) happen with you lying fully clothed on a low, padded table designed for this work. Depending on what feels supportive for your body that day, we may also work sitting or standing. I’ll guide you in movement lessons using gentle, non-invasive touch as the primary means of communication.
I may use simple props like pillows, rollers, or pads to support comfort, reduce effort, or make a movement easier to sense. Nothing is done to you — everything is an invitation, and we adjust as we go. You’re always welcome to stop or change your mind, and we can always find a different way to do things.
Sessions are quiet, unhurried, and responsive to what’s happening in your body in real time. We work gently and moment by moment, following your needs, capacity, and curiosity rather than a fixed plan or outcome.

Energy-friendly, low demand, and flexible to your needs & schedule
Who this is for
This option may work well if you:
Prefer to do it on your own time rather than committing to a schedule
Need to fit self-care in around parenting, work, or other responsibilities
Want access without social interaction
Want something you can return to repeatedly and as needed
Why repetition matters
Doing these lessons regularly helps you:
Develop a more relaxed & regulated baseline
Sense your feelings, needs, and boundaries as they're happening
Learn how to get out of pain & overwhelm sooner
Over time, many people develop tools they can use independently in daily life.
A few important things to know
I am a somatic practitioner, not a medical or mental health provider
I do not diagnose or treat medical or mental health conditions
This work can complement therapy, medical care, or other supports
You are always the authority on your body and experience
If you’ve had difficult or harmful experiences with therapy in the past, that matters here.
You don’t have to decide right now
You’re welcome to take your time, reread this page, or come back later.
If you have questions or want to explore what kind of support fits your needs, you’re invited to schedule a Discovery Call for a personalized recommendation.
