Somatic and Attachment Counseling
for Women in Midlife
About Embodied Healing
You're the one who's always held it together. But lately, you've felt the cracks. You're thoughtful, emotionally attuned, maybe even gifted or twice exceptional-but something inside feels off. The overwhelm, the irritability, the nagging sense of "what's wrong with me?" You may be navigating perimenopause, parenting, grief, chronic stress, or the resurfacing of childhood attachment wounds that were never really resolved.
At Embodied Healing, Melissa specializes in working with deeply feeling women who have reached a point where insight alone isn't enough. My clients are often emotionally intelligent and introspective but struggle to feel truly connected in their bodies or relationships. Whether you're eager to dive in and explore, or feeling more shut down and unsure of where to start, I meet you exactly where you are-with a blend of somatic experiencing, attachment repair, and compassion that is warm and steady (and sometimes a little goofy).
I also offer adjunct somatic work for individuals currently receiving treatment of eating disorders, helping them reconnect to their bodies with safety and care.
