somatic-spiritual healing

“I wish that I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being.” 

Hafiz

My dear soul, I see you.

I see your wounds and I see your light. I see the longing in your heart to break free from the past, and the patterns that have been holding you back.

The journey home to Self is a courageous, beautiful and sometimes relentless one. But you are more powerful than you know. And you don’t have to do it alone.

Through a blend of somatic psychotherapy, energetic healing, and shamanic rituals, we will tend to your wounds and reclaim the treasures that are deep within you.

I’ll be by your side, helping you navigate the light and the dark, the beauty and the pain of this precious existence. 

“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”

Anais Nin

Somatic-Spiritual Healing Modalities

I believe in the powerful alchemy of mind, body, and spirit. Drawing on 20 years of experience in a range of holistic modalities, I’ll create a personalized healing journey that tends to all of you. That may include…

Hakomi

Hakomi is a gentle yet powerful experiential psychotherapy that uses mindfulness and somatic interventions to heal attachment wounds and developmental trauma.

Somatics

We may use embodiment practices and yogic movement to ground you into the present moment, and reconnect you to the deep wisdom of your body.

Inner Child Work

We may delve into the depths of your psyche to reconnect with your inner child, so that you can lovingly reparent yourself and create healthier generational cycles.

Energy Healing

We may use breathwork to help regulate your nervous system, and modalities such as Reiki and sound healing to balance and heal at a deeper energetic level.

Integration

I can help you weave expanded states of consciousness (e.g. profound life experiences, sacred rituals, plant medicine, breathwork...) into the fabric of your being.

Earth Wisdom

I may use shamanic rituals and sacred practices to reunite you with Mother Earth, and align your energy with the grounding and nurturing essence of nature.

  • " I could not have imagined the sea-change I underwent. I am awake, alive, and free."

    "I’d been trying to recover myself after a difficult few years. I told Bethany I felt stuck: something wouldn’t loosen, refusing to let me back into my life. Bethany held every part of my process with tenderness, honesty, humor, and compassion. She offered insight when it was called for, silent presence and physical grounding other times. Through my work with Bethany I have been able to settle back into my own skin. I have developed resilience and flexibility where before I felt brittle and fragile. I have grown immensely in my capacity for compassion, both for others and for myself."


  • "Bethany has a huge capacity to hold both fierce intensity and gentle attunement."

    “Bethany is a gifted facilitator of healing with a huge capacity to hold both fierce intensity and gentle attunement. I was exquisitely cared for during my day-long with her. At the same time, Bethany was not afraid to accompany me into the darkest depths of my process. I am particularly grateful for the skillful and non-judgmental way she supported me to work through shame, as well as the way our journey helped me to access a greater sense of protection and support for my life. I wholeheartedly recommend Bethany to anyone who is ready for deep healing." - E.K., MFT

  • "I discovered so much about my truths and traumas. I am forever changed for the better."

    “Bethany is a warm, intuitive healer who is very skilled at creating a safe, grounding and supportive space through ritual, clear boundaries, consent and flexibility to what arises in the moment. With her skilled support and coaching and the trust that we had built together, I was able to discover so much about myself and the narratives and traumas that were the source of current suffering, and to piece together my own truths and priorities. I am deeply grateful that I had the opportunity to work with Bethany - I am forever changed for the better.” ~ P.A., Conservation

  • "Bethany will help you fulfill your highest potential and wildest dreams."

    “I’d been in therapy for years but felt a few old patterns were still holding me back. The personalized retreat was a beautiful experience in an absolutely stunning setting, surrounded by nature and artwork. Bethany was consistently attuned as we explored what was holding me back and new possibilities for moving forward. I’ve since made make several important life decisions with ease, and most importantly, trust myself so much more. I’d highly recommend Bethany as a grounded and professional guide to help fulfill your highest potential and wildest dreams!" ~ R.C., Psychologist

  • "My experience was as beautiful as it was profound, with benefits continuing to unfold."

    “It took me some time to find a transformational practitioner that I felt comfortable with and Bethany became the perfect person for me - so warm, soulful, and kind. Her space is magical and nurturing, it really feels as if Mother Nature is taking care of you. My experience was as beautiful as it was profound, better and richer than I could have imagined — with benefits continuing to unfold. Bethany held such a safe space for me during every part of our work together and I highly recommend her for anyone seeking to journey deep within themselves." ~ D.L., Filmmaker

  • "Bethany has changed my life. Her day-long retreats are nothing short of profound."

    "When I began exploring my own path in 2020, I spoke with several healers over many months. When I finally met Bethany, the connection was instant: my energetic body came to rest, and I knew I was meant to work with her. I'm a scientist by background, so it was important to me that Bethany's approach is consistent with latest research in the field. She has dedicated over a decade to training across multiple, holistic modalities from different cultures, so I felt confident that no matter what arose, she would have the tools and experience to support me… (TBC)”

  • "The clarity and spiritual connection that results will change your perspective forever."

    “My daylong retreats with Bethany have been nothing short of profound. I have worked with excellent therapists and coaches over the years, and the sessions with Bethany enable breakthroughs, self-understanding, and deep healing that would take years to materialize through other formats. You will be able to access realizations and insights that were right there all along, just beneath the surface and out of daily reach. The clarity and spiritual connection that results will change your perspective forever: toward yourself and your outerworld."~ M.N., Chief Business Officer

  • "You won’t find a finer guide to help you through the improvement of your life."

    "Bethany has helped me quiet my internal critic and break a knee jerk mental reaction of anger. At my age, it is a welcome relief to not have my internal voice crank up the anger quotient automatically, allowing me to deal with issues in calmer and more constructive ways. Bethany has helped me explore my past, review traumas, and forgive grievances through counseling and other holistic modalities. Her kindness, consideration, calmness, and care are exceptional. You won’t find a finer guide to help you through the improvement of your life.” ~ J.I., Retired Entrepreneur
