Touch it, feel it, talk about it
Hands-on somatic-emotional integration for sustainable wellbeing
Together we listen to the mindbody connection to help you manage stress, adapt & connect in a time of change.
Meet Camilla
Using a somatic psychology approach that includes empathetic and affective listening touch, I mentor clients to listen to the mindbody connection to release stress and trauma and become more balanced and adaptive in the face of change. By doing this, you improve your self-care and the care you give to the people in your life. Because by taking care of yourself, you have more resources and know-how for caretaking in your intimate relationships, families and communities. That’s critical at a time when nearly 60% of Americans already have one or more chronic illness including mental illness, because they are linked. Only we can change those odds, both personally and collectively.
My perspective on mindbody health is integrative and interdisciplinary. As a former university professor who taught cultural semiotics, media studies and gender studies before diving into the world of hands-on holistic healing practices, today I integrate somatics (the language of the body), semantics (the language of linguistics) and sentics (the language of the emotions) in my healing arts practice, my writings and holistic health consulting. Using an integrative toolkit, I help you make fast internal changes that last.

1-on-1 Sessions
In person, hands-on, sitting or lying on a massage table. Or virtually via Zoom or FaceTime. For when you need to change a dysfunctional habit, get stressed, trigger a painbody, feel emotionally swept to sea, or check out and need help gathering all your parts, getting grounded and moving forward with grace and ease. We’ll listen together to charged body memories to get to the bottom of what you need to be whole.
Self-Care Plan
Self-care is the first healthcare. Together we touch, feel and talk our way through an emotionally connected and honest assessment of 12 self-care skills. From there, we create a 90-day personalized Self-Care Plan to instigate some changes in your habitual patterns with the intention to optimize your moods, mental focus and physical sense of wellbeing and to reduce your risk of chronic ill health and mindbody imbalance.

What Fast Therapy clients are saying
Alice D.
Actress
“I was so happy with the results of my first 10-day fast—which included kicking a two-year sleeping pill addiction—when the opportunity to do it again arose, I knew it was time for a follow up. The second round of Fast Therapy was even better, because I saw the cleansing effects all the way past day 10 to day 14. My benefits included mental clarity, better sleep and digestion, weight loss, emotional balance and peace, not to mention more energy and clearer skin. Would I do it a third time? Absolutely!”
Alexcia P.
Writer
“Fast Therapy completely shifted my relationship to food, my body and my awareness of self. I realized after 10 days of fasting that I’d been constantly consuming and not really pausing to give myself permission and time to let go. I realized I was addicted to food, to consumption itself. I now honor the process of consuming only what I really need in my Core Self and then releasing waste and negative feelings. Fast Therapy is now part of my life, and I know if I need to emotionally or physically cleanse, it’s easy.”
Mark K.
Cinematographer
“Doing Fast Therapy taught me how to detox my colon, liver and gallbladder. And guess what? My back and shoulder pain disappeared. But the next thing I learned was the real game-changer. I was guided to do emotional healing work at the same time. I realized I needed to change how I was in relationship. Like why I wasn’t. That really opened my heart and mind.”
