Welcome! My name is Tinneca and I'm a Somatic Trauma Therapist, Midwife and Mindfulness Meditation Teacher. I've served my community for 20 years and guide people of all ages healing from stress and trauma. My unique background as a midwife and teacher has made me especially equipped to serve women and children.

​

I offer a holistic & somatic approach that honors the wisdom of the bodymind as a catalyst for profound healing.

​

What is Somatic Therapy?

 

Somatic therapy recognizes that stress and trauma is certainly not 'just in your head', but becomes a part of your physiology; racing heart, sweaty palms, can't get out of bed, feeling of doom, impulsive and explosive, chronic pain...the list goes on.  It is a dysregulation of the nervous system from past overwhelming events and high levels of stress that were never resolved that are now manifesting with an array of unpleasant symptoms. Somatic therapy attends to the body, specifically the nervous system, offering supportive tools to bring self-regulation and harmony back into the bodymind. All of my services are based in somatic practices. 

​

Somatic Stress & Trauma Therapy is a general place to start and we create your sessions based on your needs in the moment. Includes Somatic Experiencing and may also  include Sound Therapy or Guided Drawing/Art.

 

CranioSacral Therapy is based on the original 10 step protocol that takes place clothed on the massage table.

 

Transcendental Bodywork is a more spiritually centered blend of Tibetan bowl sound therapy with light touch bodywork, guided breathwork and visualization . 

​

YOUNG ONES

 

Babies and children  can be affected by stress and trauma prenatally (during pregnancy), and during early life in a variety of ways. It can manifest as colic, tension, trouble sleeping, anger, trouble paying attention and trouble learning as well as physical symptoms like stomach aches and general body discomfort.

​

For newborns/infants, I offer Craniosacral in tandem with their mother, to discover how they can heal together. Whether the newborn is struggling with colic or sleep issues, these can only be resolved with both mother and baby together.

 

For children up to 10 years old, I offer Craniosacral while a parent stays in the room. This not only facilitates the child's healing process but also invites the parent into new awareness and dynamic with their child.

 

FOR CHILDREN TO ADULTS

 

For children ages 10 and up, teens and adults, I offer CranioSacral and Somatic Trauma Therapy.

​

FOR TEENS TO ADULTS

​

For teens to adults, I offer transcendental bodywork and psychedelic integration.

​

As our work together continues, we may explore additional elements that support healing as your journey continues.
