What is somatic energy work?

The body stores what the mind cannot fully process. Stress, grief, old patterns, and emotional experiences that never found resolution live in your tissue, your nervous system, your instinctive reactions. This work creates the conditions for the body to release what it has been holding. Clarity. Ease. A version of you that is no longer bracing.

What should I expect during a session?

Before anything else, I listen. I ask about your history, your patterns, where you are and where you want to go. The work that follows is hands-on, intuitive, and specific to you. Two decades of experience across training, movement, and breathwork, all in service of one thing: finding what your system needs.

What do I wear and how do I prepare?

Wear comfortable, loose clothing you can move in. Come as you are. The intake process takes care of the rest.

How many sessions do I need?

That depends entirely on what you are working with and what you want to achieve. Some clients come for a single session and experience a significant shift. Others work with me over months for deeper, sustained change. We assess this together. There is no predetermined program imposed on you.

What results do clients typically experience?

Clients commonly describe feeling clear, lighter, grounded, and deeply relaxed. A sense that something they had been carrying has finally been released. Many report sleeping more easily, feeling less reactive under pressure, and a quieter, more focused mind.

I already have a training routine. Can you work with that?

Yes. Many clients come with existing training, nutrition, or performance protocols already in place. The work is collaborative. I look at what you are already doing, where the gaps are, and what would make your current approach more effective. The goal is never to replace what is working. It is to make everything work better together.

How is this different from therapy or a regular breathwork class?

This is not therapy and it is not a group class. It is a fully individualized, hands-on session built around your specific history, body, and goals. The approach is integrative by design, combining somatic energy work, breathwork, movement, and bodywork in whatever combination your system needs. Nothing is prescribed until everything is understood.

Your body holds what your mind can't process.

Somatic Energy, Breathwork & Recovery — New York City

THE WORK

For over two decades, I have worked with executives, athletes, founders, and high performers at the edge of what the human body and nervous system can sustain.

My background is in performance. Training, movement, recovery, and the physical demands of competing and leading at the highest level. That foundation is what makes this work different from anything else you have tried.

This is not a single modality. It is an integrated approach built on somatic energy work, intentional touch, breathwork, and movement, shaped by over two decades inside professional sports, corporate boardrooms, and the most demanding performance environments in the world.

Stress. Grief. Fear. Chronic tension. It all gets stored in your fascia, your muscles, your patterns of response. The memory lives in the mind. The feeling lives in the body.

When the body feels safe enough, everything shifts. Less reactivity, more clarity, more flow. This work creates change that is not just felt in the session. It carries into how you move, think, lead, and live.

SESSIONS

The Session / 90 minutes

The foundation. We begin with an intake to understand your history, your patterns, and what your system is holding. From there the work is hands-on, intuitive, and specific to you. No two sessions are the same.

The Immersive / 120 minutes

For those ready to go deeper. Extended time allows us to move through more layers, physiological, energetic, and somatic, with space for integration before you leave.

The Tune-Up / 60 minutes / Returning clients only

For those who know the work. A focused session for maintenance, recalibration, or addressing something specific that has come up.

IN THEIR WORDS

"It's been a couple of days and I've had a relieved peaceful feeling I've never experienced before. It was very liberating. I could feel a weight being lifted off my shoulders and I was able to connect more with myself and my body. It was a reset for me. I feel more centered and aligned with myself. I was not aware of how powerful energy work could be and how big of an impact it would have on my day to day. I've been able to sleep more easily and actually feel well rested."

Client, somatic energy session

"I left feeling so much lighter and more clear headed. I went to journal right after our session and found my thoughts were so much more cohesive. No more rumination or long tangents. I felt very regulated and less in my head, more in my body."
