Usually out of necessity, but finding your way back to safety in yourself can be a difficult road to walk alone.
Sometimes you understand why your body feels like a stranger. A big surgery. A diagnosis. A specific day you will remember for the rest of your life. Maybe it doesn't have a memory attached at all; just a low hum of something's off that you can't understand no matter how much you try to just get over it.
Either way, you've been living slightly outside yourself. Managing. Performing calm. But always waiting for the other shoe to drop.
This hour-long session is where you stop managing it and start actually feeling it to understand it. Safely. On purpose. With someone who knows the difference between pushing you through a feeling and helping your body finally move it.
We work with two things at once: your nervous system and your energy.
The somatic side is about learning to actually be in your body again. Feeling safe there. Noticing what discomfort feels like without running from it, because whatever gets released has to be felt first.
The energy side is where we go after what's underneath the discomfort. The blocks keeping you foggy, stuck in the same loop, or repeating a pattern you can name but can't seem to stop living out. We loosen what's stuck so the emotional, physical, and spiritual weight you've been carrying can actually start to bubble up to be released.
Somewhere in there, you usually reconnect to your own intuition too. That quiet knowing you've been talking yourself out of for years. We don't skip that part.
What a session may include:
Nervous system regulation, so "safe" becomes a place in your body that you can go to when you feel yourself spiralling or overwhelmed.
Somatic work to reconnect you to a body that may feel so different from the one you knew.
Practice sitting with discomfort long enough for it to move, instead of running from it forever.
Energy work to loosen the blocks keeping you foggy or stuck in a pattern you've outgrown.
Support for the physical, emotional, and spiritual wounds tangled up together. Because they usually are.
Space to hear your own intuition, spirituality, and guidance again, and start trusting what they're telling you.
This is for you if:
You've been through something, big or small, and your body still feels like it's in it.
You can't rest without guilt, like relaxing is something you have to earn first.
You keep almost building the life you actually want, then quietly sabotaging it in ways you can't fully explain.
You've got a nagging sense there's more to feel, more to know, more depth available to you, and you don't know how to get there alone.
Your body did something enormous, and now you're supposed to just live in it again like nothing happened. Except everything happened. The medical intrusions. The waiting on scan/blood results. The version of you that tenses at every new ache, wondering if it's the "thing" coming back.
We work through all of it here together, at your pace, & with what you feel safe enough to go into. Getting to know a body that doesn't feel like it belongs to you anymore. The trauma left over from treatment or abuse, not just the catalyst for it. How to handle the triggers with confidence and knowing that you can get through it.

I'm Jess. Somatic practitioner and energy worker, which is a fancy way of saying I've spent a long time learning how bodies actually let go of things. I don't believe you have to understand a wound before you can heal it., but you do have to listen to & feel it.
I hold this work carefully. Trauma, grief, illness, the whole tangled mess of being a person, none of it gets rushed and none of it gets mocked here. You get taken seriously, and you still get to laugh sometimes, occasionally in the same hour. I believe humor is healing. And I've been told I am pretty funny (by my Mom).

Is this therapy? No. It's not a replacement for talk therapy or medical care, and it plays well alongside both. This works with your body and energy, not just your thoughts.
In person or online? Both. In person at your place if you have a living room or space where you can sit (couch is fine) or lie down on a yoga mat. Online sessions run over Zoom, and the work translates just fine through a screen.
I've never done somatic or energy work before. Is that a problem? No. You don't need experience, a regulated nervous system, or a belief system already in place. Just a willingness to show up.
What should I wear or bring? Something comfortable you can sit or lie down in. Nothing else required. And some water.
How is this different from a massage or a reiki session? It's talk, touch (optional, always consented), breath, and energy work combined, aimed at your nervous system and your stuck patterns specifically, not general relaxation or silent energy work only.
Will I need more than one session? Some people come once for a specific block, but most come back, because the body keeps having more to say. We'll talk about what makes sense for you. But you are never obligated to continue the work.
Cancellation and refund policy? I don't offer refunds, but if you need to move an appointment, you can do so within 24 hours, or in emergency cases, we can move to another date. Emergency cases include illness, child illness, last minute travel, necessary medical appointments, and at my own discretion.
