Somatic Bodywork
In-person sessions in Portland, Oregon and online via Zoom.
Joey is a massage therapist and somatic practitioner who helps people feel more connected to their bodies.
Living in this world can be overwhelming. And despite what society tells us, our bodies are not designed to go at it alone.
As tensions rise around us, our bodies often tense up in old survival patterns. Even though they’re trying to protect us, they often disconnect us from our feelings and ourselves.
As a certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner with 10 years of experience as a massage therapist, I won’t help you analyze the past, but rather focus on how the past shows up in your body now.
Whether we use trauma-informed massage therapy or somatic experiencing, I support clients to unravel holding patterns that keep them from fully stepping into themselves.
This work is for anyone who wants to…
feel more connected to themself
resolve chronic pain and stress
increase connection with others
build resilience for these times
explore gender or sexual identity
expand creativity
unravel from old survival patterns
Testimonials
"My time under Joey's care continues long after having been on his table. That's what happens there— a kind of healing still at work in my body from which I'm still learning. It is in part due to his prowess, but also from the permission he extends to say "yes" to my entire person." J.B.
“I first came to Joey with some shoulder pain. Over the years, his touch and somatic healing have helped me release old childhood trauma and current repressed emotions hiding in my body. Joey created a space to not just physically release my trauma, but a space to emotionally process what happened and heal with a witness. I’m forever grateful for his work.” N.G.
