Your body holds a story.
Your nervous system holds the key to unlocking it.
Hi! I’m Rachel. I’m a Personal Coach and Somatic Practitioner.
I help you feel excited about your life purpose, grounded in the steps to move forward, and free from pain of the past.
I support you in healing and re-wiring your nervous system to fully support your physical health and wellness, while creating the capacity for success in your personal goals and deepest life purpose.

What is Somatic Experiencing?
Somatic Experiencing ® (SE) is a body-oriented approach to the healing of trauma and other stress disorders. It is the life’s work of Dr. Peter A. Levine, drawing from his multidisciplinary study of stress physiology, psychology, ethology, biology, neuroscience, indigenous healing practices, and medical biophysics, together with over 45 years of successful clinical application.
The SE method provides a unique and effective pathway to discharge old stress and trauma that has been stuck in the body, and move the system into greater ease and flow.
(In other words… we move your nervous system out of places where it’s been “stuck” due to overloads of stress, or traumatic experiences from the past.
And we teach your nervous system smarter, healthier, and more optimal ways of functioning so you can live and thrive at your highest and best!)

My headaches and migraines have lessened in frequency and intensity, (even while work and life circumstances have become more stressful externally).
This is a clear departure from past pain patterns that have consistently shown up with periods of stress.
I’ve found myself saying “this would have been a migraine” many times.
In addition, I’ve noticed that my relationships have improved, because I’m more able to be around the changing energy of the people in my life without absorbing their energy like a sponge.
Since I can remember I’ve retreated into my shell at the first sign of stress in others, but now I’m finding more capacity to be present and compassionate for them.

I am just so grateful for this work. I feel like this will revolutionize the heath and wellness industry
In working with Rachel, I experienced and understand what it feels like to regulate my nervous system. I am more in tune with my body and its sensations. I am aware of when my body is communicating and how it is trying to relay messages to me.
I’ve noticed these changes have helped me help people more in sessions. I am able to detect when a client’s nervous system is offline or stuck. I also detect when there is trauma that has created issues or disease.
If more people are aware of trauma, their nervous systems, and how that affects our life condition we can all move towards a path of understanding, compassion, and healing.

hey Rachel, just wanted to share that I had an important realization related to our work together.
Right now, I have more business than ever — I’m booked for 3 solid weeks and requests for sessions are still coming in.
I just sat down outside in the yard and realized that something has happened with my nervous system because it is now allowing me to receive all of these clients, bookings, and ATTENTION from others.
I’ve felt an increased sense of confidence, vitality, and ease in working with clients. I’m able to show up much more open, without a rigid agenda, and to allow things to unfold in the moment.
I attribute this to feeling much more solid in my body, which in turn helps me feel grounded, confident, and connected.
