With Alyssa Hill | Somatic and nervous system support for those longing to come home to their bodies, find freedom from chronic symptoms and stress, and reconnect with their power, their purpose, and the world around them.
Chances are you feel like your body is working against you. The constant tension, the symptoms that seem to arise out of nowhere, the feeling of being stuck in survival mode no matter what you try.
Trust me, I get it. And it makes complete sense that you feel exhausted, confused, maybe even betrayed by your own body.
But here's what I want you to know: these aren't signs of a body working against you. They're signs of a body that never stopped fighting for you…
And if you've tried so many things and still feel like you're in the same place, that's not failure.
That's your body signaling it's ready for something different. A different kind of support. Support that actually works with your body, rather than against it.
Your body carries more than you consciously remember. The experiences that were too much, too fast, or too overwhelming left imprints — in your muscles, your fascia, your nervous system.
These imprints show up as protective patterns:
None of this is random. And none of it means something is wrong with you...
Your nervous system is designed to protect you, and these responses are proof that it's been doing its job.
But you were never meant to live in them constantly.
When your nervous system doesn’t have the support to process what it went through, protection stops being a temporary response and becomes a way of life.
Attunement is what changes that. When your nervous system is met with consistent safety and presence, it begins to learn that protection doesn't have to be constant. That it can respond to stress and come back to rest. That there's life beyond survival mode.
Trauma is less about what happened and more about how unsupported we felt when it did. Attunement is the process of meeting those parts of ourselves with the care they needed but didn't receive, which helps soften the weight of carrying it alone for so long.
When moments of overwhelm go unprocessed, the body remains stuck in patterns of protection. Somatic work helps gently complete what was interrupted and supports the nervous system in discovering new possibilities of safety, connection, and ease.
Nervous system regulation isn't a state. It's a rhythm your body is designed to move through. We restore that rhythm by building capacity & safety to be with the feelings and sensations your body shut down to survive, so it can process what it's been holding and return to flow.
Desire, creativity, connection, joy — these aren't rewards for healing. They're part of who you are. As your body begins to spend less energy on protection, they naturally start to resurface. This work helps your body remember what was always there.
I know what it's like to live in a body that feels like it's working against you. For years I dealt with chronic pain and symptom flare ups that no one could explain. I went from practitioner to practitioner looking for answers, trying everything I could to fix what felt broken.
Everything changed when I stopped trying to fix my body and started learning to be with it. When I stopped treating myself like a self-improvement project. When I started listening to my sensations and emotions as wisdom instead of problems to solve. Now, I help my clients do the same.
I'm trained in — and/or currently training in — Somatic Experiencing®, Somatic Body Stress Release®, Attachment & Polyvagal Theory, and Trauma-Informed Breathwork.
I work with individuals living with complex trauma who have been in traditional therapy for years and are ready to go deeper through somatic and body-oriented work. My approach is compassionate and grounded in one core belief: your body already knows how to heal when given the right support, attunement, and environment.

What Clients Are Saying
Somatic work is a body-oriented approach to healing that works with your nervous system, sensations, and emotions rather than relying on talk alone. It helps your body process what it's been holding so you can move out of chronic patterns of protection and back into flow.
Traditional therapy often focuses on understanding your story through conversation. This work goes deeper by engaging your body directly — where trauma and stress actually live. It's not about replacing therapy, but about accessing what talk alone can't always reach.
Anyone who is longing to come home to their body and build a relationship with it that isn't based on fixing. Whether you're navigating chronic symptoms, stress, or a sense of disconnection, this work meets you where you are.
No two sessions are the same. Rather than talking through your story, we work with what's showing up in your nervous system in real time — sensations, activation, patterns of protection. We move gradually, at a pace your body can tolerate, helping it complete the protective responses that got stuck and build new experiences of safety.
My work is rooted in Somatic Experiencing, a gentle, body-first approach to healing trauma that works directly with your nervous system rather than relying on talk alone. I also integrate somatic parts work, which helps us get to know the parts of you that have taken on protective roles — the ones that brace, shut down, people-please, or push through. When we meet these parts through the body with curiosity and compassion, they don't have to work so hard anymore.
Sessions are 60 minutes, and I'm fully present with you throughout.
Sessions are held virtually, which means you can work with me from wherever you are. All you need is a quiet space where you feel comfortable.
I recommend starting with biweekly sessions for at least 4-6 months. This gives your nervous system the consistency it needs to settle into the work. From there, many of my clients stay with the biweekly rhythm or move to monthly sessions for continued support, and some continue that way for years. This work meets you where you are for as long as it serves you.
You're not alone in that. Many of my clients come to this work after years of trying other approaches. The difference here is that we work with your body and nervous system directly, not just your mind. For many people, that's the piece that's been missing.
Absolutely. Many of my clients are professionals who hold space for others and need a space where someone holds it for them. This work supports you in reconnecting with your own body so you can show up more fully in your life and your work.
