About

I'm Heena. I support people in living the life they desire - through the body, through their work, through what they create - helping you see clearly what's true underneath, what's in the way, and go through it.

I'm a somatic coach. So much of what stops us isn't a mindset issue, it lives deeper in the brilliant survival strategies your nervous system built long ago to keep you safe. I help you create new ways of being and integrate the parts underneath old strategies so you're free to move toward what you actually want. I work deeply with a small number of people at a time to help you re-pattern your nervous system so you can live your life, and your work in the world, on your own terms.

That work stems from my own lived experience - as someone who has healed from significant harm to go from surviving to thriving, started over many times, and nearly two decades as a performing arts professional. I spent nearly fifteen years in the performing arts world as a producer, artist manager, booking agent, arts school administrator, and performer myself. The range comes not just from lived experience but modalities as well. I incorporate pre and perinatal somatics, human design, energy work, ancestral healing, parts work, and more in my practice.

"Heena is a very skilled practitioner. I'm a practitioner myself, and I seldom find someone who can match the level of presence and the number of modalities in their toolkit - Heena has them all." — Aliko Weste, Founder & Producer

1:1 Somatic Coaching

People who find me aren't lost, they want more. You know exactly what you want, be it the relationship, the boldness, the next version of your life, but it stays just out of reach, your body hitting the brakes at the very edge of it. This is not you failing. It's your body's intelligence, working to keep you safe.

1:1 somatic coaching meets your body where it is and expands your edges to include what you desire.

Be a Guest on Healing After Harm

Healing After Harm is a podcast about finding ways forward after abuse in learning and healing environments. If you're a practitioner, survivor, advocate, or author with something real to say about harm and healing, I'd love to hear from you. This is the first step - tell me about your work, and if there's a resonance, we'll set up a conversation.

Testimonials

Working with Heena has opened up my life in ways I wasn't expecting. I've studied somatic and nervous system work but always had a hard time applying it. I've also spent years in holistic talk therapy that I was happy with. This somatic work with Heena is on a whole other level. I express my emotions and move them through now, without ignoring them. Heena holds space in a very caring and real way. She’s not performative; she’s kind and also encourages you to see the truth and see yourself.

- Chrissy M.

I had a major breakthrough with Heena that majorly altered the course of my program launch that I have been so stressing and stuck about. I wanted some quick tips on details and instead she guided me to FEEL in my body that there was an undeniable much bigger picture approach for me. After we moved through that revelation together, I felt so much better, so much relief that this thing inside me that was stuck was able to come through. Now I have confidence and clarity to launch my program in a more aligned way.

- Nathan, Executive Coach

Heena’s coaching invited me deep diving into even an unconscious level which is connected with the fundamental well of being, and possibly connected with one shared with others, to inquire what I am hoping to accomplish through dance. Her support brought me the courage to move forward and clarity to express it in language.
