Science + Spirit + Self-expression

Hi, I'm Desi.

Integrative Coach, Creative Alchemist & Storyteller with a passion for helping people feel safe in self-expression and take up space in the world.

For a long time, I felt like I needed to follow a linear path, keeping parts of myself in separate rooms. Creativity and self-expression. Psychology and philosophy. My adult self and inner child. But there reached a point where those rooms became too small. Outgrowing them required trust, safety, and a leap of faith.

This work is intentional in meeting you where you are, building the capacity to listen to what your body is trying to tell you.

Beyond Soma was created from a simple truth I kept coming back to: reclamation begins when we get curious and honest with what's alive in us. That freedom is possible.

A space to bridge your body's wisdom and your external expression.

How do you want to show up in the world? And where are you ready to reclaim your voice and power?

Somatic Awareness, Psychology & Eastern Philosophy

My framework is non-linear, deeply intuitive, and grounded in ancient wisdom and modern psychology.

I hold a degree in psychology and a certificate in applied educational neuroscience, focused on how trauma and adversity shape the developing nervous system. For the past six years, I've worked alongside patients in a holistic health office, and for over three years, I've offered Reiki and integrative coaching to clients one-on-one.

Every journey is different, so every plan is too. In our work together, we will explore your body’s unique language so you can consciously choose how you want to move and connect with the world — using energy work, intuitive coaching, nervous system education, creative expression, and more.

I am here to learn right alongside you and to show up for you in a way that's real, honest, and collaborative for this next step of your journey.

Client Testimonials

  • "A healing, peaceful experience. I never had reiki done prior to my session with Desi and my expectations were not only met but exceeded... By the end of the session, I was in (happy tears) by the feeling of my energy untangling and in flow...After the session, I felt grounded, open and restored. I highly recommend Desi for your energy work needs - you will not be disappointed by the experience!”

    —Jo H

    Artist and Educator

  • "My Reiki session was very uplifting and calming. I left feeling lighter, peaceful, and very relaxed. Desi is very warm and welcoming, making it easy to fully relax and trust her. That night, I had one of the best nights of sleep I've had in a long time and woke up feeling refreshed."

    — Dana F

    Client Service Specialist

  • “I can't say enough good things about our experience. My son Danny has autism, and before big golf tournaments he can become overwhelmed, anxious, and have a hard time feeling grounded. The Reiki sessions have become such an important part of helping him prepare, not just physically, but emotionally.

    What I appreciate most is that every session is personalized. She truly takes the time to understand Danny's individual needs and creates a calm, safe environment where he feels comfortable. I've noticed that after his sessions he is much more relaxed, centered, and ready to face the challenges ahead with greater confidence.

    As a mom, seeing that sense of peace in my son means everything. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate, professional, and caring Reiki practitioner who genuinely puts her clients first.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 stars. 100% recommended.”

Beyond Soma Philosophy

Freedom is the invitation. Curiosity and integration are the pathway.

Beyond Soma represents freedom—to honor who you are, honor your voice within, and live a life that feels true to you beneath the stories we’ve told ourselves.

Soma is the Greek word for body. Beyond Soma exists in the space past it. In our connection to ourselves, others, and the world around us.

When we become curious, when we are willing to explore, question, feel, and trust ourselves enough to discover what feels true, we leave space for curiosity over certainty. For remembering rather than fixing. For growth, transformation, and possibility.

This work isn't always comfortable. But the most profound shifts rarely are.

You don't have to fix it. You just have to be willing to feel it and let it teach you something.

That's what makes us human.
