Welcome to Somatics with Jonathan. Guided by the somatic teachings of Dr. Peter Levine, Alaine Duncan, and Kathy Kain, I provide dedicated somatic coaching to help you listen to your body, regulate your nervous system, and restore felt safety.
"Trauma is not what happens to us, but what we hold inside in the absence of an empathetic witness."
— Inspired by Dr. Peter A. Levine
Somatic Coach & Educator
My passion for somatic work is rooted in my own life-changing personal journey. Having invested over $5,000 in personal somatic therapy and nervous system work, I have experienced firsthand how body-centered awareness creates profound, long-lasting transformation that purely cognitive approaches often miss.
My coaching methodology integrates foundational teachings from somatic literature—specifically Dr. Peter Levine’s work on trauma release, Alaine Duncan’s The Tao of Trauma (integrating Five Element theory and neurobiology), and Kathy Kain’s touch and developmental somatic studies in Nurturing Resilience.
Guiding clients to recognize felt safety, pendulate between states, and develop somatic self-regulation habits.
Accessible, compassionate 1-on-1 virtual coaching sessions tailored to your individual pace.
Our sessions build upon the foundational texts in trauma recovery, somatic physiology, and nervous system regulation.
Dr. Peter A. Levine
Focuses on how the body releases trapped stress responses, titration, pendulation, and the SIBAM framework.
Alaine D. Duncan
Integrates Western neurobiology with Five Element Five Phase Eastern medicine to harmonize self-regulation cycles.
Kathy L. Kain & Stephen J. Terrell
Focuses on developmental trauma, somatic touch-informed principles, somatic grounding, and visceral safety.
Pendulation is the natural movement between states of constriction and expansion. Use this interactive tool to practice shifting attention between activation and grounded resourcing in real time.
