Welcome, Iām Stephanie.
For as long as I can remember, the two things that bring me most alive and in connection with LIFE have been: dancing and horses.
From the time I was a young girl up to this present moment dance has been a way to feel fully self-expressed and feel the joy of freedom and creativity in my body.
Being with horses has always been a deep sensory experience that calls me into a grounded, focused presence. There is nothing quite like 1100 pounds of animal instinct to call you into your own animal body. My childhood passions have become the threads I have followed towards the calling of my adult life: somatic coaching and embodied transformation.
My work is a synthesis of my personal passions and my professional study in the domains of psychology, somatic coaching and bodywork. I have had the opportunity to receive somatic training through the Strozzi Institute for Somatics and Somatic Experiencing. I am a certified PCC level coach through the International Coach Federation and am a full time faculty member at the Strozzi Institute for Somatics where I teach for the somatic coach certification program and somatic bodywork courses.
When I am not teaching for the Strozzi Institute, I offer individual somatic coaching and somatic bodywork sessions as well as run online groups that focus on supervision for new somatic coaches and small somatic coaching groups.
My work is designed to support you in connecting with what you care about most and brining that all the way through your body into consistent actions in alignment with your vision and values. I am of the belief that when we as individuals heal and transform we are better able to coordinate with others to effect meaningful systemic change towards a healthier and more equitable life for all beings.
I look forward to supporting you along your path.
