Private Coaching
You don't have to do this alone
What brings you here?
If you feel stuck in your career, relationships or spiritual path, or burdened by negative mental loops, bodily discomfort or social anxiety, you need the opportunity to reconnect to your deepest natural resources.
It's time to recalibrate your sense of what’s possible.
People often come to me while navigating major life transitions:
-
Rediscovering purpose after years of focusing on financial success
-
Reanimating long-neglected creative gifts
-
Starting a new family with intention and presence
-
Reawakening joy after loss of a loved one or suffering chronic pain
-
Finding the courage to repair relationships and heal old family wounds.
Learn to listen to yourself in an entirely new way
To change long-term patterns that don’t serve you, you need to feel empowered to take the steps that once felt too difficult - and be accompanied by someone who wants you to win.
This container is designed to amplify the wisdom you already possess but don't yet know how to articulate. It’s a place to rediscover the energy that inspires you from the inside out, regardless of circumstances.
You'll learn how to trust yourself again and together we'll build a space of resonance where you can take new initiative without being plagued by worries about whether you’re “doing it right.”
Deep Listening
Cut through the noise to hear the signals of your body, mind, heart and soul. In this container, you'll learn how to respect the wisdom of emotional energy and tap into the silent inner wisdom that is your clearest source for creating alignment between yourself and the constantly changing world you live in.
Get Somatic Clarity
Self-love falls short when it doesn't include skillful stewardship of your physicality. Learn how to tune in, moment by moment, to the quality of your breathing, the length of your spine and the tone of your eyes. When you make your body into a resonant chamber, it serves as a compass for graceful spontaneity.
Fall in love with your life
Every one of your experiences can be distorted by unconscious fears or opened towards possibility by the conscious practice of love. The shift to love is not merely a practice of positive thinking, but a thoroughgoing reorientation towards life that converts every challenge to an adventure. Choose aliveness.
Embodied Dialogue
Our 1:1 sessions are built on the foundation of Embodied Dialogue.
The way I Iisten builds on over a decade of experience as a somatic educator, bodyworker, relational facilitator and longtime meditation practitioner. I connect the dots between the words you say, your tone, posture, pacing, and the quality of your attention.
I’ll teach you to notice the same things: how your body moves in and out of coherence with your speech or how your world seems to expand or contract at different moments in the conversation. I’ll reflect back when I feel you performing and when I feel you in flow.
This process teaches you how your body responds uniquely to each new moment. Speaking your truth feels different than trying to convince yourself of something your soul doesn’t believe. You’ll also learn to track what shifts when you move in or out of tune with the people in your company.
To clarify this wordless wisdom, we take our time in the process of inquiry, honoring the wisdom of silence whenever it provides the clearest signal. When you can’t think your way out of a box, I’ll offer you a guided meditation or somatic movement to refresh our process.
I work with private coaching clients worldwide over Zoom, and also offer in-person sessions.
For clients in Washington DC, coaching can be complemented by hands-on bodywork

Integrating the 4 Postures of Love
The purpose of this container is to show you how to fall in love with your life again. At the heart of our work together is the integration of the 4 Postures of Love into the areas of your life where change matters most.
-
Embodying kindness maximizes your capacity to learn without needless guilt about past mistakes. When you remove shame from the equation, your progress proceeds by leaps and bounds.
-
Strengthening connection develops your habit of presence for more effective relationality. Skillful attention and the willingness to face challenges directly highlights options you didn’t know you had.
-
Cultivating curiosity expands your vision, bringing new insight to old puzzles that need fresh solutions. Your vulnerability opens doors that were previously shut, expanding your world.
-
Deepening playfulness, you learn to joyfully embrace the unpredictable dance of daily life. Your capacity to match energies with different personalities opens the door to creative collaboration.
In every session, I’ll show you how to find these postures in everyday life with greater ease, in your movement or meditation practice, your relationships with loved ones and in your creative projects.
All new clients get access to the Grounded Connection digital course that teaches the 4 Postures of Love with a multi-modal approach that emphasizes comfort in the body, a peaceful inner voice, skillful emotional regulation and soulful alignment.
It all starts with a 30-minute Zoom call.
