You've read the email fourteen times. Pulled Tarot until you got the safe answer. Explained your no in five paragraphs and still felt like the bad guy. You've done the therapy, the journaling, the rituals, and on Monday morning your chest still flutters the second you open your laptop.
The missing piece isn't more insight. It's your body.
I'm a somatic therapist and coach with 17+ years of clinical training — Gestalt, Hakomi, Developmental Somatic Psychotherapy, and a lifelong practice in astrology, tarot, and Andean mysticism. And I don't make you choose between the two.
I work with women, queer, and Latinx adults navigating burnout, shame, cultural expectations, identity dissolution, and spiritual awakening. Cycle-breakers. Helpers. People who have held everyone else together and are exhausted from abandoning themselves to keep the peace.
If that landed in your body, not just your head, keep reading.
This is somatic therapy & coaching where your Saturn return is as relevant as your childhood wound. Where we track what your body does when someone actually sees you, and we stay there until something real shifts.
Not self-improvement. Soul retrieval.
