Some things can't be thought through. They must be moved through.

For the people everyone else leans on

I work with pastors, founders, executive directors, and organizers — the ones who do the holding and are the last to be held. Through somatic work, clinical hypnotherapy, and spiritual discernment, I help you release what years of leadership have stored in your body, and hear what it's been trying to tell you.

I know both sides of this room: ten years as a college chaplain, an acting associate vice presidency in higher ed, and a body that finally called in its toll. I left that career to build this work.

Many of the people I work with have built meaningful careers, led organizations, raised families, and cared deeply for others. From the outside, their lives look full. Inside, they often feel disconnected, from their bodies, their purpose, their relationships, or the quiet wisdom that once guided them.

The problem isn't that they've failed. It's that doing meaningful work in the world, especially now, when so much feels unsteady and so many people are being asked to hold more than they were ever resourced for, requires real support.

Insight alone doesn't move what's living in your body. What does is a process that matches what you're actually holding to something that moves it through, until it's not just understood, but transformed.

I support leaders, caregivers, helpers and healers to integrate transformational experiences into their actual lives. so you can meet what's in front of you with more trust, more discernment, and more peace.

Who I Work With

A woman with long brown hair, wearing a white shirt, blue jeans, and tan woven shoes, is sitting on a tall wooden stool with one leg crossed over the other. She is posing with one arm resting on her knee and the other hand on her lap, in front of a colorful, floral-patterned tapestry hanging on the wall behind her.

About Me

I'm Maeba, a writer, interfaith chaplain, and integration coach. I didn't arrive at this work by mastering one method, I got here through my own healing, trying nearly everything, and paying attention to what actually worked.

You already carry more wisdom than you realize. Much of it you have already thought through. What's left just needs somewhere to move. And a place to land.
