St. Joseph, Missouri · In-Person & Virtual
Somatic therapy, Color Mending, and group offerings for people ready to heal from the inside out.
I'm Christina, an LMSW and somatic practitioner based in St. Joseph, Missouri. My work sits at the intersection of clinical social work, Somatic Experiencing, Color Mending, and ancestral and intuitive frameworks.
I work with adults navigating trauma, relational wounds, chronic stress, and the ways the nervous system learned to survive. I believe healing is not about fixing what is broken. It is about returning to what was always whole.
"The body already knows. Our work together is learning to listen."
Sessions are offered in-person in St. Joseph, Missouri and virtually. I work with individuals, and I host group offerings that create container and community for collective healing.
I am one of the first two practitioners certified in Color Mending, a creative somatic modality that uses color, symbol, and intuitive expression to surface what words alone cannot reach.
Every offering is rooted in the body's intelligence.
One-on-one sessions grounded in Somatic Experiencing and nervous system awareness. We work with what the body holds, at a pace it can metabolize. Sessions are responsive to you.
Color Mending sessions use hue, shape, and intuitive creative process to surface patterns, support integration, and invite insight that forms beneath the level of language.
A group container using somatic journaling to track sensation, impulse, and felt sense as a pathway to deeper self-understanding and nervous system regulation.
Not sure if we're a good fit? Let's talk. A free 15-minute conversation to explore your needs, answer questions, and see if working together feels right.
Somatic Experiencing invites you to slow down enough to notice what your body has been holding. Rather than reliving trauma, this approach helps you build capacity and resilience. You may explore subtle shifts in breath, temperature, tension, or impulse for movement.
Over time, the nervous system begins to reorganize. What once felt overwhelming becomes manageable. What once felt stuck begins to soften.
Color Mending works through symbol, image, and creative process. Through guided use of hue, shape, and intuitive expression, patterns become visible. Insights surface naturally. Integration unfolds at a pace your system can sustain.
Begin the Conversation"Healing can look like feeling more at home in your body. More choice where there was once only reaction."
Sessions are collaborative and responsive to you. The focus is not on fixing. It is on supporting regulation, awareness, and meaningful change at the pace your nervous system can sustain.
Together, these approaches offer therapy that is experiential, embodied, and deeply attuned to the wisdom your body already holds.
A unique somatic coloring and reading experience where art, intuition, and the body meet. This group session invites you to explore your intuition through color, with a focus on relationships, whether with someone living or passed.
No prior art experience needed. Only an open heart.
