Somatic Therapy with Andréa
Strong comprehension of feminist, anti-colonial, anti-racist history and beliefs.
Evidence based somatic movement training based on touch, developmental patterns, musculo-skeletal function, the breath mechanism.
Trauma-informed evidence based somatic training created to actually heal trauma stored in the body through energy.
Somatic parts work; working with challenging thoughts through location in the body; rebuilding attachment wounds through safety in the body and in relationship to other humans.
Members get monthly Somatic Check-In emails, a free intro library with courses and classes and invites to free events.
Through gentle, body-based practices, I support fellow humans in reconnecting with their wholeness, moving through difficulty and finding steadiness from the inside out.
Andréa lives on the Unceded land of the Kanien'kehaka and Haudenosaunee. They believe in Decolonizing the land, and in a Free Palestine.
I am a white non-binary revolutionary somatic practitioner. I offer a gentle, thoughtful approach toself-discovery through somatic movement(Feldenkrais), Somatic Experiencing, and Internal Family Systems (IFS).
My work is rooted in my own experience with severe depression, suicidal ideation, chronic pain, PTSD and surgical trauma, childhood abuse and attachment trauma, self-image, body-dysphoria and sexual violence. While I cannot heal you, my work gives you the tools to begin that process.
Whether you're navigating any of these things and looking for connection to yourself, we’ll move at your pace—listening to your body, following what feels supportive, and creating space for change without pressure.
My practice centers mostly queer and trans experience, though I work with everyone interested in working with me. My work is guided by a decolonial lens-- that means I recognize how systems of power shape our bodies, stories, and nervous systems—and that healing isn’t about fixing what's "wrong," but reconnecting to what's already whole inside you.
You’re welcome here, in your fullness.
Embodied Ancestral Inquiry is a "9-month training in Ancestral Reconnection + Repair Through Embodied Practice." We are working with the ways that shame, grief, loss, belonging hold people of European decent within white supremacy, and how we reenact these traumas upon other people's of the world.
