Powers
Your life looks right. Something still feels wrong.
You're not stuck because you lack clarity or a better plan. You're stuck because you've lost access to what you feel — and that's where direction actually comes from. You say yes and feel off afterward. You think through the same decision repeatedly and never feel settled. When something surfaces internally, you explain it or adjust it before it has a chance to exist. Over time, life becomes something you maintain instead of something you choose.
My work is about giving yourself Permission to Want — rebuilding access to what you feel so you can recognize what you want, say it without qualifying it, and make decisions from the inside out.

Work With Chrissy
Ways to work together
Each path is different. All of them start with the body.
Group Program
The Embodied Woman Collective
8 weeks of group somatic coaching
A structured group container where you learn to name what you feel, locate it in your body, and stay with it long enough for it to shift. For women who are ready to give themselves Permission to Want — and rebuild the access to desire that makes real decisions possible.
Private Coaching
1:1 Coaching
Personalized embodiment coaching over 4 months
Private, sustained work with Chrissy to move through the patterns keeping you stuck. Somatic and experiential methods grounded in her 10+ years as a therapist and her own healing process.
Therapy
Individual & Couples Therapy
Somatic relational therapy in Encinitas, CA and via telehealth in California
Therapy rooted in the connection between what the body holds and what the mind tries to manage. Specialties include trauma, anxiety, depression, identity, and purity culture recovery.
KAP
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy
For clients who've hit a wall in traditional therapy — or who are ready to go deeper.
Chrissy offers KAP in partnership with Journey Clinical, combining ketamine medicine with her somatic and experiential therapy approach. Available in-person in Encinitas and via telehealth in California.
Chrissy has coached me through major transitions in my company and life. Through her coaching, I feel more empowered to make inspired leadership decisions, have better clarity on my goals and am more knowledgeable on how to set clear boundaries to allow for more work-life balance. I highly recommend Chrissy as a coach.
