Holding others through grief transformation through somatic love, sex, and relationship coaching.

In 2012, when I lost my daughter Laurel, choosing to terminate a wanted pregnancy for medical reasons, I began a grief-journey that has shaped me in ways I couldn’t even imagine at that time. Service to grieving people and communities has been central to my own healing. I have found an internal landscape of strength, peace, and love beyond anything I could have imagined if grief never cracked me wide open. I hope to help others find the same.

I deeply believe we are already whole and ok, no matter how fragmented we feel. The work is finding all the parts of ourselves we’ve lost and rejected along the way, calling them home to one integrated self. It is a deep honor to hold you on your journey.

If you’d like to find your own space of strength, peace, and love on your own journey, I’m here to hold you through the process and offer tools along the way. 

MY COACHING METHOD

  • Desire

    Identify what you want so we know which steps to take to get you there. Sharing positive vision is especially powerful for relationship transformation.

  • Embody

    Feel for the truth beneath the surface and let the body reveal conflicts and blockages.

  • Integrate

    Align all parts of you to your heart’s desire and step into the peace and power of your fully integrated self.

  • "I really value the way you show up. I can feel you coming through the screen until you're in the room with me creating a field of transformation."

    — R.R.

  • "I feel like I just did 10 years of therapy in one session."

    — J.R.

  • "I can't put into words how much the work we have started helped me today. I felt my love and sorrow. I felt profound peace today!!!!! It was a gift and it was beautiful."

    — A.I. on the first anniversary of the loss of her baby

  • "I've been living the past two years with no perspective. Today I got perspective."

    — J.R.

  • "Here, I'm grateful for my pain. This is why people love Shakespeare. There's beauty in the pain and sadness. I feel sorry for people who have never felt this. They aren't living life to the fullest."

    — A.I. on where coaching brings her

  • "I have this combative resistance that can get in my way. Kate has a way of moving toward and into the resistance to give a voice and a life of it's own. This is where I discovered so much richness."

    -C.L.

  • "Kate is masterful in her application of techniques to the point that you don't even know you are doing a technique."

    -C.L. (also a coach trained in these methods)

  • "Kate brings a lot of lived experience and deep emotional intelligence to her work."

    -J.R.

  • "Kate is an extremely effective coach. She guides with grace and confidence and takes you to places within yourself you may have never known were there. Throughout the process you feel her full presence and wisdom."

    -C.L.
