Kaorin graduated in 2016 with a B.A. in Communication Studies, with a concentration in Narrative Theory, Storytelling & Psychology. Rooted in the understanding that the stories we tell shape our identities, behaviors, and relationships, Narrative Theory explores how language and meaning-making influence our inner and outer worlds. This foundation deeply informs Kaorin’s approach to healing.

In her 1:1 Integrative Somatic Guidance sessions, narrative work complements trauma-informed care by honoring the unique life stories each client carries, stories shaped not only by experiences, but also by the body and nervous system. Through gentle tracking, co-regulation, and somatic awareness, clients are invited to reclaim authorship of their personal narratives. Rather than pathologizing, Kaorin supports clients in identifying the dominant stories that may be rooted in survival or trauma, while gently guiding them toward more life-affirming narratives grounded in safety, agency, and embodied truth.

Storytelling, in this context, becomes a healing act: one where the nervous system is supported, choice is restored, and clients can reconnect with their inner resilience and wholeness. This integration of narrative and somatics invites transformation, not by bypassing pain, but by creating space for new, embodied stories to emerge.

Kaorin has been trained in Trauma Informed Care for 8 years

Trauma-informed care recognizes that trauma affects not just the mind, but also the body and nervous system, shaping how we think, feel, and relate to others. This approach prioritizes safety, choice, and empowerment throughout the healing process.

Core Principles:

Safety: Creating a physically and emotionally safe space, respecting boundaries, and moving at your pace.

Trust & Transparency: Clear communication, ensuring you're in control of your healing journey.

Choice & Autonomy: Restoring your sense of agency, empowering you to make decisions in the process.

Empowerment: Focusing on your inner strength and resilience, rather than what needs to be "fixed."

Somatic Awareness: Using body sensations, breath, and grounding techniques to regulate the nervous system and release trauma stored in the body.

Cultural Sensitivity: Recognizing and respecting your unique lived experience, including personal and systemic trauma.

In Sessions:

Gentle Tracking: Noticing body sensations to integrate experiences without overwhelm.

Titration & Pendulation: Moving between stress and safety to avoid dysregulation.

Co-Regulation: Creating new relational experiences of safety to heal attachment wounds.

Slow, Consent-Based Approach: Working at your pace with mindful checking-ins to ensure safety

Somatic Guidance is a body-centered approach to healing that helps you reconnect with yourself, release tension, and cultivate a sense of safety and ease. It recognizes that trauma and emotions are stored in the body, and healing occurs when we address both mind and body.

Using awareness, movement, breath, and touch, somatic therapy supports your body’s natural ability to heal, helping you become more present and attuned to your internal experience. Unlike traditional talk therapy, somatic therapy allows you to:

✔ Process emotions through body awareness
✔ Release tension and trauma patterns beyond words
✔ Build self-trust and safety in your body
✔ Rewire nervous system responses to stress and anxiety
✔ Foster deeper connection and authenticity in relationships

This approach brings lasting transformation by healing both the mind and body.

Certified in Neuro-Soma Yoga

Neuro-Soma Yoga is a gentle, trauma-informed movement practice that combines somatic awareness, neuroplasticity principles, and restorative yoga. Trained through Yinstinct Yoga’s Neuro-Soma Yoga program, I use this method to support nervous system health, reconnect body and mind, and foster a deep sense of safety and presence.

Why It’s Important:

• Helps unwind chronic tension and habitual holding patterns

• Supports nervous system regulation and resilience

• Encourages body trust and emotional well-being

Therapy Techniques:

• Somatic and interoceptive movements that retrain the brain-body connection

• Breath-centered sequences that down-regulate stress responses

• Simple, accessible poses that promote deep rest and healing

• Movement patterns designed to support neuroplastic change and self-agency

Benefits:

• Relief from physical tension, anxiety, and overwhelm

• Increased sense of safety, embodiment, and inner calm

• Reconnection to the body’s innate wisdom and capacity to heal

Breathwork is a transformative practice that uses specific breathing techniques to promote emotional release, self-awareness, and overall healing. By consciously controlling your breath, you can access deeper states of relaxation, clarity, and emotional renewal, releasing tension and blockages held in the body.

Breathing deeply activates the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting healing, relaxation, and emotional regulation. Many people develop shallow, unconscious breathing patterns due to stress and trauma, which can lead to emotional stagnation and physical discomfort. Breathwork helps to:

✔ Release emotional blocks and trauma
✔ Reduce anxiety and stress
✔ Increase energy, mental clarity, and focus
✔ Cultivate self-awareness and resilience

Breathwork empowers you to connect with your body’s innate wisdom, fostering long-term healing and transformation.

Attachment theory explores how early relationships, especially with caregivers, shape our ability to connect with others. It influences how we handle conflict, regulate emotions, and form relationships throughout life. Developed by John Bowlby and expanded by Mary Ainsworth, attachment theory identifies four main styles:

1. Secure Attachment – Comfortable with intimacy and independence, able to trust others.

2. Anxious Attachment – Craves closeness but fears abandonment, often seeking reassurance.

3. Avoidant Attachment – Values independence and struggles with emotional intimacy.

4. Disorganized Attachment – Exhibits both anxious and avoidant behaviors, often due to past trauma.

How Attachment Theory Shows Up in Therapy
In therapy, we explore how early relational patterns influence your emotional regulation and body responses. Since attachment forms in the body before language, healing requires addressing both the mind and body to restore safety.

Healing attachment wounds involves more than understanding the past; it’s about feeling safe and present in your body today to experience balanced relationships and inner connection.

nner Child Work
Inner child work helps you reconnect with the younger parts of yourself carrying unmet needs and emotional wounds, which influence your beliefs and relationships. Healing these parts can release old patterns, such as people-pleasing, fear of abandonment, and self-doubt.

How It Works:

• Awareness & Connection: Identify and connect with inner child wounds.

• Somatic Reconnection: Use breathwork and movement to create safety in the body.

• Reparenting & Repair: Nurture your inner child with compassion and set healthy boundaries.

• Integration: Shift limiting beliefs and build a new, empowered self.

Transformation:
Healing your inner child helps you break old patterns, build self-compassion, and experience more joy, security, and empowerment. It’s about healing in the present for a more authentic, fulfilling life.

Eco-somatics and ecopsychology explore the connection between our inner world and nature, recognizing that healing ourselves is linked to healing our relationship with the Earth.

Why It’s Important:
Disconnection from nature can cause stress, anxiety, and eco-grief. Eco-somatics helps restore this connection, regulate the nervous system, and foster a sense of belonging.

How It Works:

• Sensory Awareness: Engage your senses to connect with nature.

• Nervous System Regulation: Use nature for co-regulation and somatic practices.

• Eco-Somatic Rituals: Practice earth-based rituals and symbolism for emotional healing.

• Healing Grief: Address eco-anxiety and strengthen your Earth connection.

Transformation:
Eco-somatics helps you feel grounded, reduce stress, and reconnect with nature and your authentic self.

Psychedelic experiences have the potential to be deeply healing, insightful, and transformative, but their true power lies in how we prepare for them and integrate their lessons into daily life. Without proper preparation, an experience can feel overwhelming or unclear. Without integration, insights may fade without creating real change. A trauma-informed, body-based approach to psychedelic work ensures that you enter the experience with intention, safety, and support, and that you leave it with a grounded sense of meaning, healing, and growth.

Rooted in Jungian depth psychology, ART as Individuation is a creative process of self-discovery that honors the psyche’s natural movement toward wholeness. Drawing from Kaorin’s certification with The Centre for Applied Jungian Studies, this offering blends art-making with archetypal exploration, active imagination, and symbolic inquiry.

Through image, intuition, and embodied presence, clients are invited to engage with the unconscious, meeting dreams, inner figures, ancestral imprints, and soul themes through spontaneous creative expression. No artistic experience is needed; this is not about producing art, but about allowing what wants to emerge to take form.

Each session becomes a ritual of witnessing, where drawing, painting, writing, or collage are used as portals to explore the inner landscape. Kaorin holds a trauma-informed, somatically grounded space where expression can unfold safely and meaningfully. This work is ideal for those feeling called to connect with their deeper Self, access inner guidance, and move through transformation with symbolic depth and creative trust.

Energy knows no bounds. Through focused presence, intention, and trained perception, distance sessions offer a profound opportunity to receive healing support from wherever you are.

Using principles of Reiki, biodynamic Craniosacral therapy, subtle energy work, Ashati healing, and intuitive attunement, I guide your system into deep states of rest, coherence, and alignment. These sessions can help regulate the nervous system, ease tension, release stored emotions, and reconnect you to your inner stillness and clarity.

Even across space, your body knows how to receive and respond. All that’s required is a quiet place to rest, breathe, and receive.
