Somatic Coach

Hi I'm Brigitte. I’m a Somatic Embodiment Coach, Massage Therapist and Healing Guide.

The Massage Therapist for your inward journey!

I guide women who feel like they are hitting up against their edges, to relax into and trust their inner guidance; expand their capacity to live their lives authentically.

With over 25 years of experience as a massage therapist, I’ve helped thousands of people release physical tension and pain from their bodies.

After years of practicing as a massage therapist, I felt a calling to explore new avenues of healing. I embarked on a journey into the realm of coaching, eager to support my clients on a deeper level. However, what I discovered along the way was truly transformative.

In the coaching program, I realized that the journey was as much for me as it was for my clients. It became an opportunity to reconnect with my own body and emotions, unveiling layers of self-discovery and personal growth. Through introspection, I uncovered patterns of prioritizing others' needs above my own and having negative thoughts about myself, leading to a profound realization: I had been neglecting my own well-being in the process.

Despite my newfound insights, fear held me back from fully embracing my role as a coach. I grappled with feelings of inadequacy and the fear of judgment, hesitant to step into my power and share my gifts with the world. It was a period of stagnation until I encountered somatic and root cause coaching—a transformative approach that illuminated my path forward.

This journey allowed me to see how my unconscious mind was running the show. Once I got the learnings and was able to release negative thought and emotions around many things, I could respond differently and make more empowered aligned decisions.

I use a heart-centered approach and hold a safe space to guide you on an inward journey towards self-awareness, healing, curiosity and self-empowerment, through a variety of coaching processes.

Together, we prioritize body awareness and through a proven root-cause coaching process and healing practices, we work together to integrate the unconscious and conscious minds, leading to greater relaxation, peace, reduced pain, improved sleep, and more ease in your body.

Your body is talking, are you listening?
