My clients usually feel they are running on empty. Maybe you’re burning out in a role that once fulfilled you, questioning your purpose, or facing a big life shift that’s left you feeling untethered. You’re used to holding it all together, but inside, there’s a quiet ache for something more: ease, clarity, and the freedom to be your full self. My clients are high achievers, perfectionists, and performers who are ready to stop white-knuckling through life and start healing the patterns that keep them stuck.

BSP is an advanced, body-mind healing approach similar to EMDR and Somatic Experiencing.
Hi, I'm Brittany Hautz, and I help queer professionals who have always followed their dream and are now questioning every choice they’ve ever made because they've lost themselves entirely. Being the successful high-achiever has always been a source of pride, and you can’t imagine who you’d be without the grind. And yet, the idea of letting go feels just as terrifying as remaining trapped in this burnout, completely isolated. Are you dealing with migraines, stomach issues, and real pain? Perhaps you've done a bunch of scans and tests, only to hear doctors say that “Everything is clear. You just need to manage your stress better.”

Somatic Therapists
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
