I was on Dr. Phil twice. But nothing changed…until I worked in Somatic Healing. Shandra has been a literal godsend! After 2 years of extreme physical illness, 1 year of extreme mental illness, 9 months in an intense trauma therapy, counselors, psychiatrists & meds due to childhood sexual abuse… I knew I needed “something” else. After many recommendations I began working with Shandra. She greatly opened up my confidence, creativity, emotions, & understanding in just 4 sessions.

What Is Somatic Healing?
Somatic healing is a bottom‑up approach—meaning we work with the body’s signals, sensations, breath, and nervous system states to create safety and regulation first. From there, we can gently unwind patterns like hypervigilance, shutdown, people‑pleasing, chronic tension, and emotional reactivity.
In sessions, you’ll be guided to slow down, track what’s happening inside, and build the skills to meet stress differently—without forcing, fixing, or bypassing. This work is especially supportive if you’ve tried talk therapy, mindset work, or “pushing through,” and still feel stuck.
Get Somatic Coaching for:
- Anxiety, overwhelm, or burnout
- Feeling disconnected, numb, or “not like yourself”
- Chronic stress patterns and nervous system dysregulation
- Trauma history (including developmental or relational trauma)
- High sensitivity/empath overwhelm
- Difficulty resting, sleeping, or turning your mind off
- Wanting more confidence, clarity, and grounded action
Somatic healing is different
If you’re high-functioning on the outside but anxious, overwhelmed, shut down, or exhausted on the inside, your body may be asking for a different kind of support. Somatic healing and coaching helps you work with your nervous system (not against it) so change can finally stick—emotionally, physically, and relationally.
At Embodied Healing Center, we offer somatic healing and coaching in Melbourne, FL with options for in-person and virtual sessions. Many of our clients (including healers, entrepreneurs, and highly sensitive people) come in because they’ve tried talk therapy, mindset work, or “pushing through,” yet they still feel stuck. Together, we slow down, listen to what your body is communicating, and build the capacity for safety, clarity, and grounded action.
Serving Melbourne, Palm Bay, Rockledge, and Viera.
Client-led, body-led sessions
- Your body holds wisdom: We follow what’s true for you in real time, not a one‑size‑fits‑all script.
- Trauma‑informed care: We prioritize safety, consent, and pacing. Your system leads—we don’t force breakthroughs.
- Science + soul: We blend nervous system education with deep presence, so you understand what’s happening and feel supported while it shifts.
- Lasting change: Relief matters—but we also focus on integration: skills and practices you can use between sessions so progress continues.
