Somatic Embodywork
Therapeutic massage and bodywork, nervous system regulation, trauma healing, and embodied living.
Body-based, trauma-informed care for the cultivation of wholeness, vitality, and resilience.
Helping you to resolve chronic stress, anxiety, and physical pain.
Soma is a Greek word meaning “body.” Somatic healing works directly with the body, assisting us in cultivating a sense of inner safety and helping us resolve unprocessed grief and trauma, heal chronic pain, create healthy boundaries, and expand our capacity to receive more of the good things in life.
I would be honored to support you in cultivating a connection to your body, the present moment, your wholeness, vitality, resilience, the natural world, and your ability to thrive.

Licensed Massage & Bodywork Therapist | Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner | Certified Hypnotherapist | Shamanic Practitioner | Usui Reiki Master Teacher
24 years of experience helping others to restore balance, ease, and harmony to body, mind, and spirit.
The key to healing lies within the wisdom of your body.
I specialize in supporting people who struggle with chronic stress, anxiety, pain, and unhealed grief and trauma. I empower those I work with to reconnect with their bodies, establish healthy boundaries with others, cultivate mindful presence, resilience, a sense of wholeness, and a deep connection to life.
My almost 25 years of experience working with clients in a healing capacity and my lived experience as a survivor of childhood trauma greatly inform my work with others.

“I consider Kara to be one of the most transformative healers I have ever worked with. Her broad range of skills and many years of experience in addressing the mental, physical, and energetic bodies of her clients give her a level of pragmatism and flexibility that is rare in the healing community and highly effective at treating the individual on a holistic level. My work with Kara has helped me to recover from years of abuse and emotional imbalance. The road to recovery is winding and sometimes challenging, but Kara is always able to meet me wherever I am and provide the help and healing that I most need. She has helped me change my life in an empowering and compassionate way. I am truly grateful to have worked with her.”

“This woman changed my life. If you are ready to do some REAL work on yourself and lead a healthy life then she's the person to go to. With truth as the guiding force, Kara provided me tools to help deal with extreme anxiety. With a rough upbringing, I have sought counseling throughout my life which is probably upwards of over 20 practitioners and I have to say her approach has been the most successful out of them all.”

“After many years of suffering from debilitating depression and anxiety, and after several tries with different forms of therapy, I spent two years in the deepest depression I had known, I found Kara. She is a warm, unconditionally loving, and accepting person, free of judgment, and she doesn’t subscribe to convention. With her help, I was able to break down mental and emotional barriers and finally find peace within myself… The work I have done with Kara has changed my life, down to the core of my being. I am proud to say that today I love myself and I embrace all my differences, which make me who I am. Words could never adequately express what Kara has done for me and I will forever be grateful to her.“

“I had been suffering from depression and anxiety for years when I started seeing Kara. She helped me identify distinct moments in my childhood that were the root of my pain. She helped me heal that little girl who was hurt which subsequently healed my adult psychic wounds. She also taught me how to access my unconscious mind to help me understand the problems and dilemmas that I face in my daily life. I can honestly say that I haven't been depressed since I completed my work with Kara. She truly changed my life.

“Kara is a beautifully powerful healer. She helped me unveil some very deeply rooted beliefs I've been holding on to my whole life that have limited me on my path. She helped me understand my areas of resistance and how to connect to the root "mother" issues and the source of my chronic health ailments. I was able to reach some pretty profound "Aha" moments that cracked me wide open, and felt like I had figured out how to turn the key to self-discovery and deeper healing. Kara is so knowledgeable, empathetic, and loving- and her balanced, multi-dimensional approach is uniquely amazing.”

"Kara consistently demonstrates a unique blend of what I call 'toughness and tenderness'. She is very compassionate yet at times graciously bold. Kara is very insightful and competent regarding human behavior and how to assist physical, emotional, and spiritual suffering. I believe that Kara is especially talented and gifted and appreciate her help.”"

“Kara is super keen, tough, and really supportive. She recently helped me through a difficult life transition that had dragged out for years and was long overdue. Even after our sessions she followed up with me and was really quick to respond when I needed to see her. Some of the sessions were fairly intense for me, but every time I walked out my eyes had been opened more to the truth of the situation I had been dealing with. When she says she’ll help you she really will. Kara is the bee’s knees!”

“I have known Kara on a variety of levels over the years and have found her to be a woman of compassion and kindness. Her skill of working with others offers a nurturing doorway in moving forward through the pain and/or finding yourself emotionally stuck. Foremost Kara has recognized and taken to heart that we all learn from integrating our own healing process and that in turn allows us to be more fully present when working with others. Through the years I have seen Kara step into her own deeper wisdom and trust in knowing what is called for at the moment. Kara is a warm-hearted and compassionate woman who cares deeply about her work and how she can facilitate the healing of her clients in moving toward a happy and healthier life. She offers to others what she has learned and practiced within herself.”
