Who is this for?

If you want to :

experience deeper intimacy in your relationships with romantic partners, family, and friends

feel greater emotional safety and comfort when being alone

connect with a deeper purpose and confidence in life and carry through with intentions and projects

be more at home in your body and experience more balance in your nervous system

transform repetitive destructive emotional and thought patterns (anger, fear, sadness) that hinder your well-being

heal from traumatic birth and family history

If you are:

a parent who experienced traumatic labor

a birthing professional who supports families during the prenatal, perinatal, and postpartum period

a professional who supports children and families during early years of bonding and socialization

a professional who supports adults resolving attachment and relational wounds and related somatic patterns



Each participant’s turn is a unique, somatically oriented healing journey. Gentle facilitation and the format are designed to support connecting with non-verbal implicit memories and energetic imprints held in our body and psyche from early developmental periods. In the safety of connection, participants will receive new experiences in an embodied way that allows lasting change in one’s entire being on all levels of the psyche, body, and soul. This workshop is complementary to ongoing psychotherapy and other healing relationships.
