I’m Michaela.

For over five years, I’ve been caring for dogs through walking, sitting, and fostering. Spending so much time with them has gradually deepened my awareness of the quieter side of our connection. How our emotions shape our presence, how our bodies respond to different experiences, and how closely our nervous systems can influence one another. Alongside my work with dogs, I’m an Embodied Processing practitioner and trauma-informed coach. Through gentle somatic work, I support people in exploring and processing emotions, understanding their nervous system responses, and creating more space for calm, safety, and choice. Bringing these two parts of my life together felt like a natural step. ​This connection inspired me to create online somatic programs focused on the human side of life with dogs. Whether you work with dogs, share your home with them, or experience fear and tension around them, there is space here for your own experiences, emotions, and needs. At the heart of my work is a gentle approach rooted in awareness, patience, and respect for the pace of each nervous system.
