With the support of another to be with you in the depths of your most tender and most transformational spaces.
The body is constantly communicating with us, guiding us toward healing when we lean in closely enough to listen to its whispers.

Body Therapies emphasizes a holistic approach, addressing not just the body but all facets of the self. Rather than a hands-on technique, InBody Therapies empowers you to engage in self-healing and transformation. We support you in discovering your own unique path to wellness and personal growth.

Space to Explore your mind, emotions, body and Spirit

Embody your True Self

Attentive & Attuned Support

Online & In-Person

There is a common perception in modern day society that we need to dive deeply into the core of our trauma. While in fact: doing so alone can be more harmful than helpful. Having a supportive other with us in these spaces, as well as deeply listening to our body if it wants to continue to look at these pieces of ourselves can speed up and enhance the healing process.

There is also an opposing perception in which we numb our difficult or socially rejected emotions in attempt to not feel them. While sometimes easier in the short term this can be harmful in the long term and can lead to breakdown and illness. 

Marissa works with your own unique pace and encourages trust building within ones own self to help regulate the nervous system, mind and emotions.

Somatic Therapy works with the nervous system to bring a sense of calm and awareness.
