Holistic Wellness

Integrative Somatic Therapy Practice™

I am fully certified in ISTP™ and received training by Ratha Chek - the creator of this therapeutic approach.

ISTP™ sessions provide deep healing for the mind, body and soul to release body-stored trauma and tension. As we move throughout releasing, we create a sense of safety for emotional healing and improved wellbeing.

These sessions weave together

Gentle yoga and breathwork
Bodywork for myofascial release
Ceremony
Mindfulness practices
Embodied processing & integration
Sound healing
Resilience enhancement
Bioenergetic unwinding

Ayurvedic Nutrition

Ayurveda is rooted in ancient Hindu medicine, and considered "the science of yoga." Ayurvedic Nutrition with Julia entails aligning the mind and body according to its constitution through holistic nutrition and lifestyle. As needed, Ayurvedic nutrition can be incorporated into counselling, psychotherapy, and ISTP™ sessions, or can be offered as a stand-alone session.
