Spiritual Somatic Counseling

Do you feel a change coming but you’re just not sure what’s next?

Maybe you’re at a crossroads, confused about which path to follow.

Perhaps you’re experiencing a life-altering shift in your health, career, relationship, or spiritual path–and ways of being that have worked before no longer feel effective. Something within you knows it’s time to pause, listen deeply, and orient toward what truly matters in this next chapter.

Your spirit is calling.

Your life is a journey. 

Your body speaks its own language.

Spiritual Somatic Counseling blends reflective dialogue, somatic inquiry, nervous system resilience work, and strategic coaching. Engaging these various modalities creates space for insight and intuitive wisdom to arise.

It would be my honor to accompany you during this time of transition—listening for the themes that are emerging, helping you access your inner guidance, and offering steady, compassionate support as you navigate change.

Some of the topics we might explore are:

  • How can my daily domestic life be the inspiration for my spiritual growth?

  • What’s the scope of change needed at this time? 

  • How might the existing structures of my life support the shifts I’m seeking? 

  • What practices will help me cultivate greater satisfaction, balance, and capacity as I move through this passage?

Our sessions will support thoughtful, grounded transformation. Together, we discover new possibilities for wellness and clarity in the midst of change. 

Couples Counseling

We'll use the tools of active listening and reflection, somatic awareness, and principles from the Gottman Method of couples therapy to untangle some of the inevitable knots that surface in our intimate relationships.

Before we begin, let’s connect!

I offer free 30 minute consultations so that we can get to know each other and create a plan.

Rates & Scheduling

While I’m available for occasional single sessions, I find that this work is most effective when we meet consistently over time to address the deeper layers of your inquiry, and build some momentum with the process. Sessions may be scheduled weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly depending on your needs and resources. 

I offer 60 minute sessions in person or via Zoom. In the online format, where touch is not available, guided meditation and breath work support the somatic exploration. 

Sessions are $175/hour, with a limited number of reduced rate options available. Please don’t let financial concerns be an obstacle to receiving support–feel free to inquire.

  • “Every interaction I had with Rachel was like a mental/ emotional/ spiritual/ practical shower. Rachel teaches how to unwind, reevaluate, and change perspectives. Her guidance is practical– create lists, do assignments, implement simple practices. She is wise. She laughs, guides, and invents tools. I’m changed because of my time with her. Gratefully so.”

  • “Working with Rachel proved to be immensely helpful. She has a keen ability to really listen, and ask pointed questions that get to the heart of the matter swiftly and easefully, while at the same time holding space compassionately and gently. Her feedback was beautifully articulate and insightful. I highly recommend her work!”

  • “From the moment I walked in to Rachel’s cozy space, I felt safe to share whatever was on my mind. Rachel oozes acceptance just by being…herself! Which makes it so easy to open up. Part of the magic is the incredible framework she creates, in which I could “empty out” and feel really heard, which was so relieving. I’m very grateful for her attentive and caring expertise.”
