Welcome

Our bodies hold deep wisdom, but so often we move through life disconnected from what our bodies know about safety, dignity, and belonging.

As a certified somatic practitioner and bodyworker, I partner with you to align your actions with what you care about most; change your relationship to the patterns and habits getting in the way; and invite new practices to move you toward that future possibility.

  • Somatic Bodywork

    Somatic bodywork deepens transformation through touch, breathwork, and guided attention.

    This form of bodywork is done on a massage table, fully clothed. I offer bodywork as part of my coaching practice, and also offer stand-alone bodywork sessions.

Somatics is a healing practice that incorporates awareness of our bodily experiences and intentional body-based practices to reconnect us with our whole selves in a world that often separates mind and body.

The form of somatics I practice recognizes the intimate connection between personal growth and collective transformation. Through coaching, bodywork, and regular practice, we develop the capacity to align our actions with our values, cultivate the skills needed in these complex times, and show up for ourselves and our communities with greater presence, authenticity, and choice.

  • Working with Shaleece is nothing short of profound. Just one session with her feels like three months of talk therapy.

  • Shaleece’s workshop made inhabiting and listening to my body feel not only doable but like something I'd really like to experience and explore more.
