Somatic Trauma Therapy in Anacortes

Sometimes, even when you've done a lot of inner work, traditional approaches just don’t seem to move the needle anymore. That’s where alternative therapies come in. You’re not looking for a quick fix—you’ve already gained deep insights and self-awareness. But maybe you’re feeling stuck, like something deeper still needs to shift.

Alternative therapies offer a fresh way to tap into those deeper layers that may feel just out of reach. Whether it’s through somatic healing, energy work, or connecting the mind, body, and spirit, these approaches can help you rediscover parts of yourself that traditional methods might have missed. If you’re feeling like you’ve done the work but still feel stuck, these therapies can provide the missing piece to your healing journey.

You’ve been looking something that actually works, and it’s right here. If any of this feels familiar, real change is within reach, and it starts now.

DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU?

Feeling like nothing works for your trauma or depression? Antidepressants aren’t helping, and talk therapy just keeps you going in circles.

✓ Tired of trying everything with no real progress? Medications fall short, and endless talking isn’t getting you anywhere.

✓ Ready to move past what’s not working? Antidepressants leave you numb, and therapy feels like a loop you can’t escape.

✓ Exhausted by treatments that don’t deliver? Meds aren’t enough, and therapy just keeps you stuck in the same place.

Trauma Informed


Being truly trauma-informed means understanding that no two experiences of trauma are alike. It requires adapting each healing approach to honor the unique needs and boundaries of every individual, rather than applying a 'one-size-fits-all' model.

Ketamine has been increasingly prescribed as an off-label treatment for various chronic treatment-resistant mental health conditions, such as depression, alcohol and other substance dependencies, post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, and other psychiatric diagnoses.

Somatic Therapy

Somatic has become a bit of a buzzword these days, so let’s break it down. In my work, I combine self-inquiry with solution-focused, talk-based therapies. True somatic work isn’t just about touch—it’s about creating a deeper connection between your mind and body.

I have a knack for helping you decipher the messages, symbols, and language of your body, turning them into insights you can interpret, learn from, and grow with.

  • My approach is all about seeing the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—not just focusing on one aspect of your life. Traditional therapy often looks at the mental and emotional side of things, but with holistic care, we dive deeper. Together, we work on how trauma has affected your entire system, not just your thoughts. I bring in practices like somatic healing, yoga therapy, and even energy work because I believe true healing comes from addressing all parts of you, not just the mind. Please note: I am not a licensed therapist. My services are intended to complement, not replace, professional mental health care

  • Every person is different, and I fully believe in meeting you exactly where you are. Whether you show up looking for coaching, healing, or deeper therapy, I use intuitive collaboration to guide our process. We’ll work together to understand what you’re really needing in the moment, and that could look different every session. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach—it’s completely shaped around what you’re bringing to the table, and we adapt as we go.

  • You’re already doing so much self-awareness work, which means our sessions are about going deeper and creating sustainable change. You’ll start to feel more connected to yourself, your purpose, and your inner strength. We’ll work to release old patterns, help you feel more at peace, and build a sense of clarity and direction moving forward. The results are about healing at a core level, so you’ll notice a shift not just mentally but in your day-to-day life as well.

  • I get that finances can be a big concern when you're seeking support, and I want to acknowledge that it's a very real part of the healing journey. I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you trust to guide you, and I want to be as transparent as I can about how I structure my fees.

    Over the past 15+ years in the fields of spiritual guidance, mental health, and yoga, I have offered sliding scale or discounted rates, especially in the early stages of my career. Honestly, those options made a lot of sense at the time. I was building my experience, and I was also at a point in my own life where I deeply needed support—just like you may be now. I remember how grateful I was in those early years when practitioners offered sliding scale rates. It allowed me to get the help I needed, and I’ll always have immense gratitude for those who made it possible for me to receive that support.

    However, after many years of working with incredible clients and continuing to invest in my own personal and professional growth, I no longer offer discounted rates. Here's why:

    1. The Value of My Work:
    The work I offer hasn’t changed. What I bring to the table now is built on years of experience, study, and personal healing. The value of that is constant. Like any other professional—whether a doctor, therapist, or teacher—the energy, time, and dedication I invest in this work has a clear value. I truly believe that when we're ready to do this work, the resources show up. I can't tell you how many times I've asked for funds towards my own healing—whether for therapy, trainings, or certifications—as gifts for birthdays or holidays. What I offer is an exchange of energy. By honoring my rates, you’re also honoring the energy and transformation we’re going to create together.

    2. The Energy and Labor Involved:
    Being a practitioner isn’t just about the work I do during our sessions. It’s the thousands of hours I’ve spent on my own personal growth, healing, and ongoing education that fuel everything I offer. This work takes a huge amount of energetic, emotional, and physical investment from me. I show up fully present, grounded, and engaged, and I want to give you the best of me. My rates reflect the years of hard work and dedication that have brought me to this point.

    3. Respecting the Healing Process:
    I get it—money can be tight, and I don’t take that lightly. But from my own experience, I’ve learned that when we’re truly committed to our healing, the resources we need tend to show up. This isn’t just about paying for a service; it’s about investing in yourself, your growth, and your transformation. When we exchange energy, we both get to be part of the process. If I were to offer a discount, it would be like discounting my own energy—and just like you, I have bills to pay. More importantly, I've learned that boundaries around money actually support the integrity of the work we do together. It allows us both to be fully invested.

    I hope you understand that my decision not to offer discounts comes from a place of deep respect for both my own journey and the value of what I provide. If what I offer resonates with you, I trust that the investment will align with where you are in your healing process. I'm here to support you in any way that feels right for you, and I look forward to walking alongside you on your path.
