Stop going silent in the rooms
where your voice matters most.
Somatic coaching for women who want to speak up, step forward and lead.
You know what you want to say — but you don’t say it.
You know what you want to do — but you don’t do it.
It isn’t a confidence issue. It’s a nervous system issue.
And your nervous system can change.
“Coaching with Kate dramatically changed my life and my work, increasing both my confidence and effectiveness."
— Bernadine, VP

What is Somatic Coaching?
Somatic Coaching is a body-based approach to personal development that uses physical sensations, movement and awareness to create lasting change. It moves coaching beyond the traditional cognitive - conversational approach. With somatic coaching you rewire the nervous system to release stored tension and trauma, shift limiting beliefs, and improve emotional regulation.

What sessions look like
Sessions are 1:1 and usually last about an hour. We’ll start with 3 sessions over the course of 2 weeks. Enough to give you some momentum but not so much that you are overwhelmed.
The pandemic taught me that virtual sessions can be just as effective as in person - sometimes more so as you’ll be able to join from an environment you are familiar with, which the nervous system loves.
You’ll learn the science behind how somatic work rewires your nervous system. The really remarkable thing is that I don’t need to know what might have happened or what occurred. There’s no rehashing trauma or reliving experiences.
We work in the here & now with movement, visualization, imagination and exercises designed to bypass the cognitive, rational brain and bring us into the world of the felt-sense.
Our work will be supported by open communication, session recordings, AI enhanced notes and a folder full of reading materials.
There is nothing you need to prepare in advance.
I provide adaptive practices, encouragement and accountability that meet you where you are and moves as fast as you want to move towards your goals.
IF:
You turn down opportunities that sound amazing.
You shrink from new experiences.
You defer to others in decision-making.
Your Inner Critic rages at you.
You are tired of shaming yourself.
You are exhausted from berating yourself.
And try to bury it under working harder.
IF
You have tried therapy to talk it out.
Medications to mute the thoughts and sensations.
You repeating affirmations isn’t cutting it.
You have listened to all the podcasts & read all the books.
You have all the awareness in the world.
But it’s not working.
You still feel stuck.
Then this work might be for you!
Much of our wiring - how we show up in the world today - was ‘installed’ before we were even conscious. At a young age our families, our communities, our culture laid out implicit and explicit rules and programming that run our lives today. The experiences we had and the messages we received can work - up to a point.
And because it happened beneath and before consciousness - our conscious, cognitive efforts can’t get at it through talk therapy or traditional coaching. We need an approach that works at a deeper level. We need tools and techniques that bring those unconscious responses and programs to light.
Our first language is body language.
The nervous system speaks the language of movement, emotion and sensation.
And it is through these elements that you can begin to communicate with your system.
IF you want to
create a lived experience of more ease, self-awareness and courage.
stay with yourself in high-pressure moments.
learn how to be present with youself
for youself.
build internal structures that support the external ambitions.
actualize your potential.
maximize your opportunities.
move through the world with a strong sense of self.
knowing that you can handle whatever you chose to do.
Then this work may be for you!
