Areas of Support
As an embodiment coach and somatic educator, I offer tailored body-based education and resourcing for the following areas:
What Sets This Work Apart
Unlike therapy or mindset coaching, this work doesn't dig into your past or push you to perform better. It expands your capacity to respond, recover, and stay present under real-world pressure.
You'll build resilience from the inside out as you work with your nervous system to recognize stress patterns, restore capacity, and respond with choice instead of override.
Values: Resilience-informed. Identity and body-affirming. Culturally humble. No fixing, just transformative resourcing.

Rates & Accessibility
My full rate is $250 per 60-minute session. This rate reflects the true cost of sustaining my practice, and it directly enables me to offer free and reduced-rate sessions to those who need them most.
Paying the full rate is a form of mutual support: it helps cover the hidden labor of this work and allows me to keep showing up for those who otherwise couldn't access care.
Discounted rates and special packages may also be available. At times, I'm able to offer sliding scale and solidarity-rate spots as well. Feel free to mention your needs when you reach out.
What Clients Are Saying
Somatic Coaching & Embodiment Education: FAQs
-
Somatic or embodiment coaching and body-based education are different ways of describing the same core approach: working with the body's signals and responses rather than focusing solely on thoughts and behavior. For example, instead of pushing through exhaustion or ignoring stress signals, you learn to recognize what your body needs and respond with intention. This work helps you build capacity, reduce stress, and develop a fuller relationship with your body so you can move through challenges with more ease.
-
This work is educational, not clinical. Rather than processing past trauma or diagnosing, it focuses on building body-based skills and resources for the present. It's not a replacement for mental health care. It can complement your work in therapy or offer practical, embodied support on its own.
-
Yes. Dissertation coaching and academic advisory are core offerings at Embodied Purpose. Sessions combine structured academic support with body-based education to help grad students finish their dissertation or thesis without burning out along the way.
