Damian Leuthold
Movement educator, manual therapist, non-licensed counselor
I am a movement educator (RSME + RSMT), manual therapist (MT), somatic counselor (NLC), and a long time student and practitioner of the Brook Institute's method of practicing perinatal somatic psychotherapy. I would be honored to support you to attend to and move beyond your self destructive, self limiting habits.
There is a better life available to you beyond the self preservation behaviors you have developed over a lifetime of hurt. It is available for you when you engage your fears... slowly, playfully, and by cultivating resources within and without. You can overcome them!
I had many autistic behaviors before encountering the Brook institute's teachings. Thanks to the huge growth that I have experienced since I have the capacity to support you to get past your own immense internal blocks!
Mary Justus
Spritual Life Coach
RPP, LMBT, E-RYT, Somatic Life Coach
I am a mother, artist, dancer, yogini, teacher and lover of this beautiful life. I have been a practitioner of yoga, meditation, energy medicine, astrology and creative movement for over 25 years. I have a deep curiosity and love of exploring consciousness through our form and formlessness. My background includes various energetic, touch and movement modalities. I have studied and continue to participate in a wide range of embodied explorations that include various contemplative practices, non-duality, meditation, Contact Improvisation, Authentic Movement, BodyMind Centering, Continuum, Tai Chi and many years of Ecstatic Dance. My background has been deeply enriched with studies in Biodynamic Cranial Sacral Therapy and Polarity Therapy at Tree of Life Center. I am also currently in the process of becoming a Registered Polarity Educator. These comprehensive modalities understand the body as consciousness and are a fundamental support in the work that I do. My studies in Germanic Healing Knowledge also inform my work and continued learning. In addition, I am a Reiki Master Teacher and have practiced energy medicine for many years. I completed a program in Quantum Energy Medicine, which bridges the latest neuroscience and quantum physics with the healing and awakening process. I have also completed a program at the Brooke Institute to further deepen my specialization in working with pre-cognitive imprints and embodiment. I am a certified Perinatal Therapist and feel deeply honored to work with clients and families that are working through CPTSD, birth imprints, adoption, early attachment imprints and more!
The journey of embodiment is difficult to translate in words as it is not a 'doing' experience. It is best discovered through a direct, cellular experience of Being, which is always occurring Now. Deeply knowing and understanding the essence of our True Nature that we all share allows a deep relaxation in the body-mind continuum. Resolution of the core wounds allow Dynamic Stillness and the Pure Breath of Love to emerge through the heart into embodied cellular consciousness.
Understanding the Truth that you are brings forth effortless healing and harmony. I would love to be present with you as a support in the unfolding of your healing and awakening journey. The process invites us to open up to each now moment, and to be willing to investigate ourselves with sincerity.
It is my intention to meet you exactly where you are. I will offer embodied presence and support for your experiential discovery. You are invited to explore any aspect of your Being, body or world. I will deeply honor and attune to the innate wisdom and essence that you are. Your inherant treatment plan is the guide for this work.

Jennifer Parker Bostic
Certified Health & Life Coach
Certified AFT Practitioner
I’m a holistic practitioner, providing a gentle, supportive space and solid healing framework for those recovering from difficult life experiences.
Having a personal history of birth, early developmental, and complex trauma led me on a decades-long journey of learning, healing, and reclaiming my life.
My early background is in business leadership and personal development. Later training included transformational coaching, habit change, fitness, holistic nutrition, aromatherapy, and memory reconsolidation. It wasn’t until 2019 that burnout led to me delving into the nervous system, the biology of stress, complex trauma, inner child work, and somatics. This changed everything for me and I knew I wanted to learn to assist my clients on a deeper level, which led to undertaking professional training with Annie. With her teachings and guidance, I’ve personally unraveled and come back together in all the best ways! I've developed a deep felt sense of this work. Circling back to what I learned many years ago, self-leadership is powerful. Yet we need compassion, support, capacity, and embodied presence before we can truly drop into that soul-centered place. Then we can move forward, squeeze (and enjoy!) all the juicy goodness from life.
I believe no matter how much we have been through, we aren’t broken. The body and mind were made to heal and our souls are greater than pain. I would be honored to share the methods I’ve been blessed to learn and hold space for your process of healing and becoming.
