Listening to the Wisdom of the Body

Counselling • Somatic Therapy • Reiki
In-person & online, Nelson, BC

Welcome

So many of us arrive here carrying something we can’t quite name: a heaviness, a pattern, a sense that something is missing. Whatever has brought you here, it makes sense. Your responses, your coping, your protective strategies, all of it makes sense given your history.

When we begin to see the patterns we’ve been living inside of, something new can begin to emerge.

You may be here because:

• You feel deeply and experience life intensely
• You long for more connection in your relationships
• You find yourself caught in patterns you don't understand
• You sense there is something within you asking to be heard

I work with people experiencing anxiety, overwhelm, relationship difficulties, disconnection, life transitions, and the effects of trauma.

The heart of our work together:

Coming Home to the Body

The body is always speaking, and together we learn to slow down and listen to it. We sense the ground beneath us, notice what is pleasant or uncomfortable, and find resources that invite calm. Sometimes it's an image, a breath, or simply a hand placed gently over the heart.

Finding Safety in Connection

We carry the imprint of our earliest connective experiences with us: how safe it felt to reach out, whether comfort arrived, whether we could trust. Together we can begin to understand these patterns and, gently, find a new way of being with ourselves and others.

Tending the Emotional Landscape

Our emotions are not problems to be solved. They are messengers. Together we can map the patterns we get stuck in, the thoughts, feelings, and stories that shape our days, and how all of it lives in the body. When emotions are given space and held in relationship, they can begin to move.

Belonging to a Wider Web

We are not meant to heal alone. Through imagination, we can call upon allies from the natural world, a beloved place, a plant, an animal, a wise ancestor. These companions offer something real: a felt sense of support that lands in the body, reminding us we belong to a wider web of life.

My work is relational, somatic, and trauma-informed. I follow your lead, tracking what your system needs and building enough safety for something new to become possible.

My Approach.

I'm so grateful I found Sophie for somatic counselling. I was able to explore hidden parts within myself without shame or judgement. Sophie's gentle way of somatic guiding helps me feel safe and her timing of when and what to say or ask is very attuned, which opens our sessions up for deep relational exploration and healing.

I'd love to hear from you. Connect for a free 15-minute discovery call.

I am deeply grateful to live and work in the unceded, traditional, and ancestral territory and təmxʷulaʔxʷ (homeland) of the Sinixt people in Nelson, BC. This land has also been tended by other nations including the Ktunaxa and Syilx peoples. I am committed to learning more about how to support my diverse community.
