Work with me

One integrated practice, shaped around you

My Gestalt coaching is rooted in the fertile ground of somatic work, breath, and movement. Decades of training in those disciplines sit behind every session, and knowing how to bring them together is the practice. Talk, touch, breath, and movement work as one, shaped with you as we go. You don't have to know which door you need. We find the way in together.

How it holds together

Rooted deeper than what you see

There's the part of this work you can see: the sessions you book, the conversations we have. And there's everything holding it up out of view: decades of training and practice you never meet directly but feel in the room. What opens above the water is fed by everything rooted below.

The coaching you come for

Gestalt conversations and what surfaces in them: your connection to the present moment, and your own capacity for clarity and choice.

Beneath the surface

Decades of Zen Shiatsu, breath, and movement, where conscious touch settles the nervous system and your own intuition becomes the loudest voice. You never meet this part directly, and it feeds everything above.

What brings you here

Four ways into the same work

A practitioner's hands pressing gently through clothing along the upper back of someone lying down

You're stressed, exhausted, or burned out

Running on empty, with shallow breath, a body that won't settle, and no room to move. I know this state from the inside; it is where my own story began.

How we'd work

Conscious touch through Zen Shiatsu, supported by breath. Zen Shiatsu is a Japanese practice of sustained, listening pressure along the body's energy pathways, given through clothing. It helps shift you out of fight-or-flight and into the body's natural rest-and-repair state, and breath deepens that reset.

Your nervous system settles out of survival mode and back into rest, with room to breathe and your own intuition audible again.

You feel stuck or lost, and you need clarity

Pulled in every direction, unable to hear your own voice. Something needs to change, but the way forward isn't clear.

How we'd work

Gestalt coaching. Rather than analyzing the past, Gestalt works in the here-and-now, with what is alive in you right now, including what your body is telling us. Through dialogue and gentle experiments, insight becomes something you live, not just talk about.

You find clarity, direction, and the felt sense that the choice is yours to make.

You feel disconnected from your body, your joy, yourself

You live in your head. The signal from your body has gone quiet, and joy feels far away.

How we'd work

Movement, drawn from Biodanza, the dance of life. No experience or performance required. Music and movement reawaken vitality and bring the nervous system back into balance through joy and connection, so you feel at home in your body again.

You reconnect with your body, your vitality, and the aliveness that was there all along.

You're craving something more. Is this really all there is?

On the surface, things look fine. Underneath, you are quietly asking whether this is all there is.

How we'd work

The whole weave. Here we draw on everything, talk, touch, breath, and movement, shaped around where you are. This is the flower and the roots at once.

You step into a fuller way of living, where meaning, vitality, and your own wisdom lead.

Together, or on their own

These four paths are all ways into the same work. Some people come for one thing, a nervous-system reset, or coaching toward a decision. Others want the whole weave: talk, touch, breath, and movement, shaped session by session around what they need.

We decide together, and it can change over time.

You don't have to know which door is yours before we begin.

What a session feels like

Our work is guided by curiosity and experimentation. There's no fixed script. Dialogue might mean talking, moving, breathing, or creative expression, depending on what wants to happen. You bring yourself, and we follow what's real.

Client testimonials

Change that stays with you

Diana is a uniquely skilled zen shiatsu healer. Rather than simply working on the body, her sessions guide you to listen to your own wisdom and to move your breath and energy in ways that support lasting healing. I could feel grief, joy, and excitement releasing with each breath, creating space that relieved pain and left me more grounded.

— Ed

I reached out to Diana ready to begin a new chapter, knowing I needed guidance. We worked on the things that had me stuck, and her intuitive sense of how to guide me helped me break the patterns that hindered my growth. My relationship with myself is deeper now, and I still use what she taught me every day.
