Get in Touch

What does your body feel like? Right now, in this moment?

You may experience:

◆ Chronic tension in your body that worsens with stress

◆ Suppressed emotions that are ready to be felt and explored

◆ Unprocessed feelings that impact your physical health and well-being

◆ Chronic pain or numbness associated with traumatic experiences from the past

◆ A history of relational and/or touch trauma

Muscle tension reveals how we have adapted around painful memories, emotions, and beliefs. 

Tension in the body has helped us cope, but now may limit our breath,
 relationships, and full sense of aliveness.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Please reach out to me on my contact page with a little bit about you and a few times you are available to have a free half-hour phone consultation.

    I will reply as soon as I am able. I look forward to hearing from you!

  • Sessions vary widely based on clients’ differing needs. Touch most often happens on the massage table (and sometimes while sitting in a chair).

    Rosen Method Bodywork typically uses a gentle, listening, non-manipulative touch that prioritizes connection. The touch can focus on what it’s like to be touched and it can also meet chronic threads of tension, supporting you in growing embodied awareness and letting go from the inside out.

    As bodies soften, emotions, sensations, and memories often arise to be felt and explored. We use words carefully and compassionately, supporting you to stay IN the sensing.

    When we’re not using touch, we explore emotion and sensation through counseling as well as through self-touch, movement, and guided somatic experiences. No matter what tools we use, there will be a focus on building trust and safety in the therapeutic relationship.

  • This work can be especially supportive for those experiencing trauma symptoms in their bodies, psychosomatic concerns (meaning a condition that affects both the emotions and the body), chronic pain, chronic tension, or for those who want a body-based approach to healing.

    I love working with adults of all genders who want to learn how to feel into themselves and be in their bodies more. I also enjoy working with people who are growing their self-love and relational skills.

    In many cases it can be of great benefit to pair this work with ongoing talk therapy from a different provider to create a robust team approach. I am always happy to provide referrals.

more FAQs
  • “Our work addresses the holding back that we do, where we do not show ourselves, where we hold back feelings, where we hold back actions. Through listening to the truth of the body, it is possible to discover what we can do, who we can be, what we can experience, how we can love.” 

    — Marion Rosen, Founder, Rosen Method Bodywork

  • "Touch comes before sight, before speech. It is the first language and the last, and it always tells the truth."
