Reconnect to Your Body's Wisdom
Hi, I'm Colleen Verhamme
Somatic Life Coach
I believe that healing and transformation happen in the body—not just the mind. The body is always speaking to us. It holds our stories, our strengths, and our deepest truths.
Somatic coaching changed my life in ways I never expected: ten years of chronic neck & shoulder pain dissipated, anxiety lost its grip on me, and a new clarity emerged. Now, I'm passionate about helping others learn the language of their bodies to feel more grounded and alive.
I serve as a somatic coach to help people do just that.
What is Somatic Coaching?
Somatic coaching offers a path back to yourself—through the body. Somatic comes from the Greek work soma, meaning "the body in its wholeness."
We live in a world that tries to solve everything through our minds. While our mind is an incredible source of knowledge, it's not our only source of knowledge. Our body holds immense amounts of information and is constantly speaking to us—we've just forgotten how to listen.
Together, we’ll gently reconnect with your body’s signals, release stuck patterns, and uncover the clarity, confidence, and wisdom already within you.

"The body's reaction to recognizing truth is relaxation - a literal, involuntary release of muscle tension that allows us to breathe more deeply."
