ABOUT

The Lab is care for the care givers. It is a chance for clinicians to slow down together and refine the capacity to hold space – for our clients, ourselves, and the healing journey. This lab revolves around real cases, real questions, shared reflection, and embodied exploration. It primarily draws on, but is not limited to, Somatic Experiencing as a therapeutic model.

Each session will include opportunities for group case consultation. You are invited to bring with you client situations that feel complex, unclear, or where you sense that a body-based or nervous system-oriented lens could offer support. It is akin to personal consultation within a group field, having ample opportunity to learn from the support you receive and also from the experiences of others.

We will define where we go and what we want to learn together. Every session will have space for questions and for exploring cases through a somatic perspective. We will consider possible pathways with our clients that support safety, coherence, and integration.

It is also a space to explore what I call the practitioner body – the world inside of you as a practitioner and what happens inside as you work with your clients. Through experiential exercises, you will have the opportunity to refine your awareness – to learn, discover and show up as best you can for the people you support.

“Working with Julie has been such a valuable experience. I had no idea that dreamwork could be such a window into my day to day patterns and conditioning. Julie so expertly and compassionately guides me to the gold. I understand now how much dreams have to offer us, and how much medicine is available in them. Julie is such a skilled practitioner and it is so clear that she loves this work, making her sessions all the more potent. I so highly recommend working with her!”

- Emilia, Massage Therapist

"Time and time again, Julie ventured into the depths of my wounds with me compassionately, at the right time, knowing how deep to go, how to relate to what came up through the body, helping me find a deeper embodied senses of resolution and peace than I had experienced in a very long time. I’m not exaggerating when I say that every session led me through an arc, and by the end of each session, I felt reassured in my body and a greater sense of empowerment in handling the inevitable stressors of life. I approached my life with more grit and ease, took more risks, knew more clearly when to set my personal boundaries, and identified which relationships were supporting my health and happiness."

- Emily, Somatic Practitioner

"SE with Julie was game changing, and the missing ingredient in my healing process. It took feeling what a settled nervous system is like to start noticing more clearly when I was activated or shut down. I started to be able to tell when something activated a survival response in me, even subtly, I had tools to move through it into groundedness and clarity, and the felt sense to know when I had actually succeeded. When I felt anxious or unmotivated, I could approach myself with more compassion, seeing these feelings for the “nervous system injuries” that they were instead of character flaws. Julie taught me nervous system literacy, and equipped with that literacy, so much of my life changed. Her understanding of nervous systems and her patient compassion earned my trust almost immediately. She truly has a gift."
