Hi, I’m Stacy (she/her)
I am a certified bodymind coach, recovery mentor, educator, and community organizer who guides people in trauma-informed and resilience-based approaches to transformation, neuroplastic and somatic healing, liberatory rest, cyclical living, and addiction recovery.
I came into this work after living with the effects of complex trauma and severe chronic illness, including burnout, fatigue, anxiety, depression, autoimmune disease, pain, IBS, insomnia, long Covid, and a host of other debilitating and largely invisible mental and physical symptoms over many years.
My process lives in the intersection of science and soul, weaving together the latest research and ancient wisdom. I bring my whole self to this work, including my professional training and my lived experience as a 12-step community member with long-term recovery and parent of two young children.
I believe nothing happens in isolation. Everything is connected. When we heal ourselves, we heal the collective, and when we heal the collective, we heal ourselves. All of my offerings seek to decolonize our minds-bodies-spirits, dismantle systems of inequity and oppression, and help us restore a just and loving relationship with our sacred home, the Earth.
