Gentle somatic support — available in-person and virtually.

You don’t need to have the right words or know what to do.We simply start where you are. I offer gentle, body-based somatic sessions to help you feel more grounded, supported, and at ease in your day-to-day life.

I’m Heather — a somatic practitioner, artist, and mom. I offer gentle, body-based somatic sessions to help you regulate your nervous system, release tension, and feel more grounded in your day-to-day life. You don’t have to wait until things feel ‘bad enough’ to have support.

You might be in the right place if:

• You’re holding a lot and don’t have space for yourself

• You feel overwhelmed, stretched thin, or emotionally drained

• You’re constantly showing up for others, but rarely for yourself

• You feel disconnected from your body or unsure how to slow down

• You want support, but something gentle — not clinical or overwhelming

But underneath that, there’s often:

• exhaustion

• overwhelm

• or a quiet sense of disconnection

My work is rooted in presence, relationship, and the belief that healing happens when you feel safe enough to slow down and be supported.

I’ve spent years working behind the scenes in the Transforming Touch® world, and now I bring that experience into a more personal, one-on-one space with my clients.

My background as an artist deeply informs my work — creating space for expression, emotion, and connection beyond words.

Sessions are held virtually or in person, in a quiet, private art studio or a professional studio setting, depending on availability and preference.

* Please note: the art studio does not have a restroom available, so I recommend planning accordingly before your session.

I also work with Children

I also offer somatic support for sensitive or overwhelmed children.

Often, I support both moms and their kids — helping bring more ease and regulation to the whole family system.

What this work feels like

This work gently supports your nervous system through guided awareness and, when in-person, light touch.

Most clients begin with a 3-session somatic support series, allowing your body time to settle and integrate.

🌿 WHATHIS WORK FEELS LIKESessions are slow, guided, and supportive.

We focus on what you’re noticing in your body, with gentle guidance and no pressure to share more than you want.

There’s no fixing or forcing.

Just space to:

• notice
