Hello, I’m Stephen.

I help people work with the power of their emotional health.

When people here this, many envision tears, trauma, and unfortunately, equate being emotional with weakness. Instead, I see it as helping people gain strength in their sensitivity, presence, and connectedness. It’s a form of fitness, in a way. It’s a skill that builds resilience for facing life’s ups and downs with grace. It instills wisdom for moving through the tough stuff AND making more space for the beauty and joys of life. It embraces, rather than ignores, a very real part of your whole self. There’s nothing weak about it. :)

I primarily help people treat physical and mental health challenges by treating the emotional root.

Being in tune with your emotional health roots your physical and mental health. Disease, stress, chronic illness, anxiety, and mental health challenges are actually treatable, emotionally. Your mental and physical health respond to your emotional health. Working with the emotional space in unity with the mind, body, and spirit encompasses the full picture of health and well-being. You feel more whole and because of that, you feel better.

When I mention that I guide somatic therapy, with soul, people are surprised…

that I don’t don a cloak, have a long grey beard, lead psychedelic ceremonies, or seem “up in the clouds.” Although this work is magical in the impacts and changes it creates in people’s lives, it’s much more grounded than many expect.

For me, healing in its purest form is as real, authentic, and down to earth as it gets. It’s not religious or culty. It’s not performative nor does it bypass. Instead, it’s deeply human, heartfelt, and it reconnects you with your personal power. It’s about having the courage to face the places within yourself that you are wrestling with. That you may be avoiding or numbing out from. And tending to them with loving compassion because you GET to…because it’s rewarding. Giving attention to those pains and traumas to grow, because they are ready to uplift you into a new levels of freedom and expression.

That is a powerful act of love.

It’s showing up for yourself in the boldest way possible. It’s personal growth, self-discovery, and self-love in one. It fosters a deep sense of appreciation for yourself and aliveness in your energy. It creates a healthy body, mind, and spirit. Chronic illnesses are resolved and mental stressors are brought to peace. And it helps you feel connected, loved, inspired, safe, and at one with something bigger.

Lastly, this investment in love and care for yourself is not just for you, but ripples to those around you too—in how you interact with your family, how you engage with your spouse, how you parent and model for your children, how you connect with friends and colleagues, how you find fulfillment and purpose in life, and so much more.

Guiding this work is a path that found me, and I am forever grateful. If you would like my help, please know that the offer is available to you. I invite you to use the button below to connect with me over an introductory meeting.↓ There’s a form to fill out and share some of your story with me, to help me prepare for our meeting.

We will certainly talk about working together towards what you want to create in your well-being, but first and foremost, this call is a space where we can meet one another and connect. You will have space to feel seen, heard, and understood. It’s a place for self-discovery, “aha’s,” and initial emotional processing. We’ll talk about what you are going through and what your challenges want to open up within you.

Always rooting for you, and I hope to meet you soon.

Stephen

A GLIMPSE INTO MY WORLD

  • Spiritual + rooted in the human experience

    I am deeply spiritual AND I also believe we are meant to embrace, not bypass, our human experiences as part of our healing paths. We’re on this planet, in this body for a reason! My values honor the full integrity of our human + divine nature.

  • Gardening enthusiast

    Nothing feeds my soul quite like getting my hands in the earth, nurturing plant growth, and creating wildlife habitat. (yes, this picture is from my garden!) Gardening is a deeply nourishing outlet for me and holds many enriching metaphors that profoundly impact my spiritual growth. I also find pruning shrubs and trees to be particularly satisfying.

  • Meet the fam

    My family is my happy place, and I’m awe-struck by their incredible love and whole-hearted support. Anne is my rock. She is an amazing person with the biggest, most compassionate heart, and I feel beyond lucky that we found each other. Ferne is my dog-child and is a ball of endless entertainment.

  • 🌞 Gemini 🌅 Scorpio 🌔 Taurus

    I am a Gemini sun, Scorpio rising, and Taurus moon. My interpretation of that intel is that my mind and expression are lit up by the depth of this loving, nurturing work. My energy and the somatic work I guide are grounded in emotional depth while also being uniquely light, refreshing...and fun!

  • Espresso makes me happy

    I love to craft espresso drinks and have become quite proficient at it. I’ve had people say, “wait, you’re into healing and natural health…and you are ok with drinking caffeine?!” Oh yes! I am all about enjoying what brings us pleasure as a vital component to our whole well-being. When you can be in that energy, your body responds positively to the freedom.

  • Hiking is my church

    Taking my body for a nice long hike always rejuvenates my spirit. Whether it’s in the woods, prairies, beaches, dunes, or mountains, it never grows old. One of the most memorable hiking experiences was 5-days on the Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage Trail in Japan (pictured here).

  • 1/3 Pure Generator

    I am a 1/3 Pure Generator profile in Human Design and my strongest sense is Feeling. My Purpose Sphere in The Gene Keys centers around Peace (appropriate!), and my Life’s Work Sphere centers around Listening to Your Heart & Intuition. (also appropriate!) My energy brings all of these embodied facets into my somatic work.

  • Hawks speak to me

    Over the course of my spiritual journey, I came to realize that the hawk is my spirit animal. It’s always presenting itself to me and brings a big smile to my face when it does. Its energy manifests in my ability to create mental & emotional breakthroughs by helping my clients zoom out of the weeds to see a clearer and more empowering view.

  • A look back

    I graduated university with a Bachelor’s Degree in Architecture. During the economic recession, Anne & I started a commercial photography business that we ran for over a decade. However, my soul had other plans, and eventually led me to guiding somatic healing. It’s my calling, and I’m grateful to have followed it. Every step was a purposeful moment on my journey.
