Your Body
Holds Wisdom.
Somatic and creative therapy for children ages 6–12 and young women navigating anxiety, big emotions, life transitions, and the complicated process of figuring out who they are. You don’t have to figure it out alone.
REGULATE · RESTORE · RENEW
Whether you're a child who doesn't yet have the words for what's happening inside, or a young woman who's tired of overthinking, people-pleasing, and second-guessing herself, therapy can be a place to slow down, reconnect, and feel more grounded in yourself.
FOR YOUNG WOMEN
Maybe you overthink everything or you're constantly worried about disappointing people. Maybe you're incredibly hard on yourself—or you're so used to doing what everyone else needs that you're not even sure what you need anymore.

FOR PARENTS
Does any of this
sound ?
Children often communicate through play, behavior, creativity, and connection long before they're able to explain what's happening inside. Play therapy meets kids where they’re at developmentally.
Big Feelings
Difficulty adjusting to a change or recent loss, increased accidents, trouble expressing what’s wrong, withdrawal, or acting out are often the body's way of asking for help.
Difficulties at School
Trouble focusing, meltdowns at drop-off, avoiding schoolwork, or conflict with peers can all be signs their nervous system needs support — not just a behavior plan.
Feeling Overwhelmed as a Parent
You're doing everything you know how to do, and it still feels hard. You don't have to have all the answers — we'll figure this out together, as a team.
Parents are always part of the process. So the skills we build in session get practiced and reinforced at home too.
SERVICES
Somatic Therapy at Quirky Bodies
All services offered via secure telehealth across Colorado.
WHAT IS SOMATIC THERAPY?
Somatic therapy addresses emotional, mental or physical distress by focusing on the connection between the mind and body.
One-on-one sessions weaving body-based awareness with talk therapy. We listen to what your nervous system has been trying to say — gently, at your pace.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
By bringing attention to tension, tightness, or discomfort, and using somatic techniques, we are able to release those feelings and promote healing.
The idea is that the body stores stress, trauma, and emotions, so by working directly with the body, you can heal and feel better overall.
DO I HAVE TO DO SOMATIC WORK?
No, it is not required because every session is tailored to the individual showing up in the room. If talking feels like enough, we can verbally process.
The goal is to heal and create positive change. We will collaborate and see what works best for you in every session.
MY APPROACH
How the work
actually unfolds.
The Quirky Bodies framework isn't a strict protocol — it's a living, breathing process. We move through it at whatever pace your nervous system needs.
Regulate
Come back to safety.
Before anything else, your nervous system needs to feel safe. We build practical grounding skills and start listening to your body's signals together.
Restore
Reconnect with yourself.
With more capacity in your system, we gently explore the deeper layers — processing what's been stuck and rebuilding your relationship with your body.
Renew
Build a life that feels like yours.
Healing creates space for new ways of being. We integrate your growth and move toward the life you actually want — not the one you've been surviving.

Somatic therapy incorporates awareness of physical sensations, movement, and the body's responses into the healing process. While traditional talk therapy focuses primarily on thoughts and cognition, somatic therapy works with the whole person — recognizing that trauma, stress, and emotional patterns are stored in the body, not just the mind. This can help us access and process experiences that language alone can't always reach.
-
Both! I work with kids ages 6-12 and young women. The therapeutic process is the same — regulating the nervous system, processing what's stored in the body, and building new patterns — but the delivery looks different for kids. With children, that means play, music, movement, games, scavenger hunts, and art, often built around their own interests (think coping skills based on their favorite video game or memes, or expectations modeled after a sports hero or TV character they love). Parents are always involved so what we build in session can be practiced and reinforced at home.
-
Somatic therapy can be especially helpful if you've tried talk therapy but feel like something is still stuck, if you experience anxiety, trauma responses, or emotional numbness, if you feel disconnected from your body, or if stress shows up physically (tension, chronic pain, digestive issues). That said, our free consultation is the best way to figure out if we're a good fit.
-
Yes - I'm in-network with Medicaid, Aetna & UHC. If you are out-of-network, I can provide a superbill for reimbursement. During our consultation, we'll discuss fees, insurance, and what makes sense for your situation.

Yes!
Intake: $170
Sessions: $150 / 60 min

Therapy is deeply personal, so there's no one-size-fits-all timeline. Some people find meaningful shifts in a few months; others work with me for a year or more. We'll regularly check in about your progress, what's working, and what feels like enough. You're always in the driver's seat.
-
Yes! All of my services are available via secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth to anyone in Colorado. Many clients find that doing somatic or play work from the comfort and safety of their own home actually supports the process — you're already in a space where you can regulate and settle in.
-
The 15-minute free consultation is a casual, pressure-free conversation. We'll talk about what brings you (or your child) to therapy, what you're hoping for, and I'll share a bit about how I work. You get to decide if it feels like a good fit — no obligation, no awkwardness. I want you to feel excited about starting, not anxious.
