Sessions for queer, trans, non-binary folks and women
Nurture your relationship to your body
If your body is calling for more —more depth, healing, pleasure, and connection —welcome, you’re in the right place.
You may be here because you’re carrying old wounds, grappling with challenging relationship patterns, or longing to feel grounded and safe in your body. Or you may be seeking relief from the physical and emotional tension of chronic stress and overwhelm, or wanting to reconnect with your body’s innate wisdom and capacity for creativity and pleasure.
I’m River, and I’m a somatic practitioner and bodyworker, trauma support guide, and embodied pleasure educator. I work with individuals and groups seeking heartfelt transformation to create profound and sustainable change.
My approach is curated and highly attuned to each person’s needs. Each session is intentional and rooted in over a decade of training, study, and supporting folks with deep somatic healing.
Clients come to me for support with:
Release from chronic tension or longstanding holding patterns
Restoration after trauma, surgery, or emotional overwhelm and wounding
Rebuilding grounded boundaries and embodied consent from a place of clarity and self-trust
Deeper intimacy and reconnection to self
Renewed capacity for pleasure, aliveness, and creative flow
Sustainable embodied presence in relationships, work, and daily life
If you’re ready to invest in a transformative journey that expands your capacity for pleasure, confidence, and connection, book a private phone consultation, and let’s explore the ways this work can support you.

Tending to the Caretakers
Nurture surround sessions for queers, parents, practitioners, and activists
As people who give so much to others and care deeply about the world, I know how hard it can be to find the time, the space, or even another person to support you. But it is so crucial to get that support, dear ones! Chronic stress has profound effects on your body and spirit.
Nurture surround sessions are for people who need a welcoming and relaxing space to unwind and to receive nervous system support. In these sessions, you will be pampered and surrounded by cushions, blankets, and heated pillows to bring your body to a deep relaxation. Once you and your body feel cozy, you will receive attentive, gentle, and therapeutic touch to where you feel pain and tension. The aim of these sessions is to rest, feel supported, and find relief from body aches, soreness, discomfort, and stress.
Chocolate and hot tea will also be provided.
Come, unwind, and treat yourself to the gift of nurturing care and gentle touch. Your body, mind, and heart will thank you!
Sessions are for 60 minutes, 90 minutes (recommended), and 2 hours.
