Attune
A 4-month mentorship container for body-based care providers working at the edge of their capacity, who want to redefine their work in a way that centers their own values, so they can feel a sense of vitality doing what they love without leaving any parts of themselves behind.
Hello friend.
I know without a single doubt that you bring highly valuable care to the community you serve.
You’re good at what you do, and everyone knows it.
Your schedule is likely booked with clients, workshops, and continuing education courses.
You always make time for others, but at the end of the workday, you’re exhausted.
I know, because I’ve been there.
I’m wondering if you’ve started to notice your nervous system is more and more affected by the emotions and experiences of the people you serve.
Maybe you once felt like you had an endless well of wisdom to provide to your people, and lately you’ve noticed yourself coming up short with “helpful” solutions that also feel in alignment with your values.
Perhaps you’re beginning to feel like your work is taking more than it gives, and you don’t know how to change anything without compromising the integrity of your work.
When was the last time you felt enough space to breathe deeply at work?
Listen, I know how much we want to support our community so we can feel a sense of belonging, but we can’t leave our own vitality out of the work we do for the sake of helping.
At that point, we’ve lost the plot!
It’s time to take a sip of your own sweet medicine, start replenishing your well of resources, and reconnect to the parts you had to leave behind to be good at your job.
So you can feel a sense of aliveness in your body, remember why you chose this path, and create offerings that honor your whole self without leaving any parts behind.
So that you can get back to doing the work you love and support the community that loves you back.
Friend, it’s time to move away from signing up for yet another class and instead start the doing, being, and receiving parts of an embodied practice
Overextending is under feeling
which is no place to build a practice from
For many of us, caring for others began very early in life and continued as our role into adulthood. The tendency to look to others first left our own needs for care de-centered and neglected, which was absolutely no fault of our own.
It turns out that overextending oneself is an intelligent coping strategy for safety, access, and resource security when one's environment does not provide such basic needs.
While our orientation to our loved ones and community is very much heart-centered, it can also result in ongoing self-abandonment and inevitably burnout.
This pattern deeply affects our practices, creative projects, offerings, and overall livelihood.
Now more than ever, we need deeply resourced healers supporting our communities, so that value-driven efforts are sustained.
We need to connect to our own experience to feel what hasn’t been felt, so that we can integrate the overwhelming sensations and build a wider capacity that allows us to continue on our path without losing our own vitality.
In order to get back to the good stuff, we’ve gotta move through some muddy waters.
This is where body-centered work comes in
Attune opens up room to breathe with:
Body-Based Discernment & Capacity Building
exploring your own experience, reevaluating what you have space for, and expanding on your own time - returning to self and noticing what’s here
Relational Attunement in Practice (not theory)
reading your own body in practice sessions, so you can do the same with your clients and make choice points based on what’s actually in the room - this is vital connection
Value-Based Offer Design for Mutual Support
creating offerings and systems that sustain both you and your clients, with fine-tuned sensitivity and understanding of what post-traumatic growth requires - we create a way of working that centers your capacity
We re-build together.
In collaboration, we build practices that develop a deeper connection to the body and establish a stronger foundation that reminds you to center your own nervous system as a healer in the work you bring to the community.
As someone who has been in healthcare and wellness spaces my entire professional career, this is the care I take.
I work with somatic practitioners who observe and reflect on the patterns that I miss in my own system, provide compassionate feedback, and offer practices centered on choice.
This has molded me into a well-resourced practitioner who knows my needs, preferences, and boundaries, which inform how I can best show up for my clients.
Through a body-based, human-centered lens, I create offerings based on the systems, methods, and time my body has capacity for.
I no longer provide offerings that I can not show up in, without my full integrity, and I want this for you, too.
This is not only in service of your wellbeing, but also the people you provide care for as well.
Our capacity to provide meaningful work is felt by others through relational attunement, and our ability to attune is dependent on our capacity to relate.
Here’s what I bring to the table.
Grounded Support
I provide down-to-earth guidance rooted in Somatic Experiencing methods throughout all of my offerings, which is especially helpful when it comes to looking at activation that comes up in our care settings as providers.
Mirrored Experience
As someone who might share your experiences and values, I offer a compassionate mirror up to you, reflecting patterns and cycles you may not have previously noticed.
Practical Mentorship
I prioritize helping you develop systems, pacing, and offerings that will support your work with the clients and communities you serve without extracting from your personal capacity as a healer.

What’s Included
Attune is a 4-month in-depth program that moves at a slower pace with space for integration and many points of quality support, including:
-
8 90-minute virtual meetings.
We meet twice a month for 4 months via a 90-minute virtual video call to ensure you receive quality attention and time for integration.
-
You’ll have access to a Voxer channel that allows us to communicate between sessions.
This is helpful for those moments in between your own sessions with clients, where curiosity around choice points and confusion on application might come up.
-
After each virtual call, you will have access to detailed notes that highlight the themes, breakthroughs, and action points of our meetings.
You are encouraged to review and respond in our shared notes for the connection between remote sessions.
-
Throughout our time, you’ll receive weekly assignments aimed at getting in touch with your own creative somatic practice.
Assignments are personalized, but can include journal entries, artsy activities, and somatic movement exploration.
Total Investment
$3600
$900 monthly
or $450 twice a month
This is more than a somatic coaching program for burnt-out healers.
Attune includes capacity building, career mentorship, somatic practice consultation, and offering refinement. In this program, you’ll apply what you’ve learned in therapeutic modalities and create the changes you’ve been wanting to make in your practice, all while aligning with your needs, affirming your values, and holding your integrity.
Not only will you be working through your own experience, but you will also have the opportunity to integrate new ways of providing care.
Attune applies my own dynamic process and approach to nervous system care to include: bodywork, somatic guidance, and therapeutic movement.
Plus! I’ll be available for the questions in between our sessions for consultation, as you integrate what you’ve learned into your work with clients.
What this work is
(and isn’t)
What it is:
Somatic-based guidance for body-based care providers seeking harmony in their work while trying to prevent total burnout
A vehicle that moves you out of a state of shame freeze and into one of warm compassion, so you can create the offerings that sustain mutual support without shrinking to fit into your own container again
A place to develop new offerings to include framework (the bones of the offering), systems (how to move through the offering), niching (who the offering best serves), pricing (finding the exchange balance between your financial needs and the people you serve), and copy (the words that invite in exactly who you want to work with) that center on your needs and nervous system
A practical, grounded experience of what it means to live your values without also self-abandoning - because you are the medicine, friend
What it’s not:
An answer to all business-related challenges, rather than a way to create from personal values and develop work that honors your capacity and the people you serve with integrity
Only for business owners, this program can provide support for practitioners who are looking to build capacity around the work they do, whether they sell their offerings or not
Let’s chat.
To get more answers about this program, you are warmly invited to book a 20-minute call with me to determine if this offering is a good fit for you in this season of your practice. Rest assured, this is a free, no-obligation call without sales tactics.
We simply meet with our warm beverages of choice (☕️ mine’s coffee or an Earl Grey latte) and casually chat about how we can improve your offerings for the community at this season of your practice.
A map of where we can go.
But not the only way.
Sessions 1-3
RETURN TO BODY WITH RESOURCES.
We begin our work together by cultivating a source of nourishing support for the work ahead. This will be our guiding light throughout the deep work ahead.
This is the part where we choose a path based on what lights you up as a healer!
Sessions 4-6
BUILD BOUNDARIES AND DEEPER CAPACITY.
From a supported place, we can move to define exactly what is needed for your nervous system to access even more ease in your work by building structure around your integrity.
You deserve protection and preservation, friend, especially in care settings.
Sessions 7-9
DEVELOP RELATIONAL ATTUNEMENT.
Once a sense of stability has been established, our sessions continue by integrating challenges head-on from a place of curiosity, so that you can start to track your own patterned activations that come up in connection.
At this point, you’ll get really good at noticing your own responses and somatic cues.
Sessions 10-12
REDEFINE PURPOSE AND CREATE NEW WORK.
Moving forward, we dive even deeper by working with patterns and subtle responses to redefine how you show up in your purpose and community.
This is the part where we create a you-shaped container that carries you forward and creates new realities based on the offerings you’ve dreamed of.
Together, we design the shape of Attune, so that you have space for growth into the ecosystem of your own making. ❋
Whether your needs revolve around burnout recovery, private practice refinement, modality mentorship, all of the above, or some pieces of a few, this container invites it all with the shared foundation of applied somatics aimed at preserving your energy as a care provider.
We can focus mostly on the systems around your practice, or the practice itself, including offerings
Maybe you need more capacity development and boundary work, so that becomes the centerpiece
Perhaps you’re looking to deepen your relationship with your own body, so that you can better attune to your clients
Plus, this container invites discussion around offering pricing, niche and specialization, project creation, copywriting, website design, marketing, and all the ways you invite in the people you want to work with, so that you can remain in integrity as you care for others
Application.
To join this program, you’ll first need to fill out a brief application.
As Attune is a highly attentive offering, I want to be sure that we are both in resonance with each other and ready for the work this program invites before we step into the process.
This offering is great for bodyworkers who:
are feeling overextended, overidentified, or on the edge of burnout and want to build greater capacity to hold space for big emotions without being mutually activated with others
have an idea of what they really want to offer, but aren’t sure how to put it into words or put a price on it that doesn’t feel icky and salesy
are ready to start a private practice, creative project, or healing community, but need help moving out of the freeze that shrinks their ability to offer more
have the ability to describe their emotions, sensations, and overall internal experience, but want to feel a shift in their body so they can provide care with confident, embodied pacing
want increased somatic discernment which supports meaningful and appropriate solution finding in a care setting - attuning to body so that you can attune to others
“Rachel makes somatics make sense with practical applications. 10/10 recommended to anyone looking to tune into their personal wisdom.”
