"I want to be honest.
Too many women come through my practice feeling broken, overwhelmed, and dismissed.
They’ve tried everything. Been told it’s all in their head. Been handed medications or supplements with no explanation.
If that’s you—I want you to know: you’re not alone.
You haven’t failed.
You’ve been failed.
By a system that treats symptoms in isolation and overlooks the wisdom of the whole.
And the truth is—you can heal.
But not with patchwork solutions. Not with hustle.
You need better support--dare I say, the right support.
I’ve been in the healing arts for over a decade. I began with doula work, reiki, & craniosacral therapy, drawn to the profound ability to help the nervous system unwind trauma and restore safety. But over time, I realized I was fighting an uphill battle—in my clients and in myself.
Because what good is nervous system work…
If we’re still living in biochemical chaos?
If we’re eating foods our body can’t process,
Stuck in blood sugar crashes,
Saturated in xenoestrogens and toxins,
And running on cortisol 24/7?
My own body taught me this.
I battled PMDD that made me want to disappear every two weeks. I had endometriosis, stubborn weight, a 24-day cycle, insulin resistance, and emotional outbursts I couldn’t control—no matter how much “healing work” I did.
But divine wisdom abounds when you're willing to listen.
Once I started combining somatic work with functional nutrition—everything changed.
I lost nearly 40 pounds.
My cycle lengthened.
My blood sugar balanced.
I began to feel emotionally stable for the first time in my adult life.
And the deeper truth?
That stubborn belly fat I hated?
It was cortisol. It was protection.
It was my body guarding the place I never let anyone in: my boundaries, my center, my umbilicus.
This is why I no longer practice in parts.
I blend the biochemical and the somatic.
The anatomical and the energetic.
Because healing has to happen in your whole system—or it doesn’t happen at all.
My incredible partner and I built my healing studio from scratch on our farm property just outside of Ellicott City surrounded by the rhythms of the earth. You'll feel the difference as soon as you walk in. It’s not just a space for appointments—it’s a sanctuary for people to come back to themselves.
If you’ve felt dismissed, overwhelmed, or like nothing has worked…
You’re not too complicated.
You just haven’t been supported in the way your body truly needs."
Namaste, Julie
