Intuitive Somatic Therapy
& Holistic Living
An invitation to heal– body, mind, and soul
Healing from trauma and
dis-ease is possible. And it can pave a way to a more grounded and beautiful life.
“The body often remembers what the mind has forgotten” -Jacob Moreno
It’s a survival instinct to try and keep us safe. And I know reliving the physical sensations of past experiences can be confusing and scary. But there is a way back home to yourself.
Through gentle somatic experiences in a safe container, your nervous system can relax, we can untangle the sensations within, and you can begin to embody more of who you truly are.
Hi, I’m Dr. Melanie
I hold safe spaces to allow unresolved trauma to be seen, felt, and released.. with a very soft, intuitive, and guided approach rooted in Somatic Experiencing.
In this process, we empower the nervous system to get out of survival energy, and into a place where it feels safe again. Where you feel like yourself again. Where you feel whole again.
Let’s link arms and walk home together..

About Dr. Melanie
Dr. Melanie’s journey is a remarkable story from sickness to health. Her teen years were fraught with food allergies, a heart condition, and chronic low energy. Doctors, as wonderful and needed as they are, were unable to introduce her to the healthier promised lands she wanted and needed. Like most extraordinary people do, she had to find those lands herself.
