root + tend

GUIDED & FOCUSED somatic work

seeding your own steady ground

“We need radical honesty—learning to speak from our root systems about how we feel and what we want.”
— adrienne maree brown, Pleasure Activism: The Politics of Feeling Good

A structured container of 4–8 somatic sessions to support you to

ROOT into resource, self-connection & security and

RESIDE more fully in your body & your life.


root + tend is a focused somatic container built around the arc of change — not a long-term therapy relationship or a checklist of goals — but a brave space for the honest work of learning to stay with yourself through what is hard, what is shifting, and what is ready to transform.

the container is four to eight sessions — enough space to go somewhere real, defined enough to keep the work purposeful. sessions are not pre-scheduled on a fixed weekly cadence. each one is booked after the previous session's integration has had time to settle in the body — so the rhythm of the work follows your nervous system.

at the center of this work is what I call loving discipline — supporting you in rooting into self-authority and crafting the conditions to truly tend your own growth and development.

this is tree work ~ you plant the seeds, the roots take hold, we tend emerging growth with care & attention.

you bring your curiosity, insight, and willingness,

I bring attuned presence, centered intuition, trauma-informed approach and somatic practices.

together we build a container where growth-oriented change has room, and discipline, to happen.

the format

  • 4–8 individual sessions, each 75 minutes

  • sessions are scheduled emergently and collaboratively — each one is booked after the previous session's integration work has had time to settle

  • all sessions completed within a 6-month window

  • available in-person and virtual

  • $125-$175 sliding scale per session

    • if you have financial stability or access to generational wealth, paying at the higher end of the scale helps make this work more accessible to others

    how do i know if this is right for me?

  • questions about fit or format are welcome via email

  • once you schedule the first session, you'll receive a set of written reflection questions — to help orient you to this approach, to help me understand what you're ready to work with, and to help us both sense into whether this framework is the right fit

  • If after your written reflection or first session this isn't the right fit, we'll talk about what would serve you better.

“Action isn’t a burden to be hoisted up and lugged around on our shoulders. It is something we are. The work we have to do can be seen as a kind of coming alive. More than some moral imperative, it’s an awakening to our true nature, a releasing of our gifts.”
— Joanna Macy, World as Lover, World as Self
