About Shaylee

I specialize in helping individuals reconnect with their bodies as a pathway to healing and resilience. Grounded in the principles of mind-body integration, I support clients in navigating trauma, anxiety, stress, and emotional dysregulation by fostering awareness of physical sensations and nervous system responses.

With a compassionate, client-centered approach, I integrate evidence-based somatic practices such as breathwork, body awareness, and nervous system regulation techniques into therapy sessions. My work emphasizes creating a safe, attuned therapeutic environment where clients can gently explore and process stored experiences held within the body.

I previously worked as a first responder. I hold a Master’s Degree in Social Work and am committed to ongoing professional development in somatic therapies and trauma-informed care. I believe that healing is not only about insight, but also about restoring a sense of safety, connection, and vitality within the body.
