The Heart of Embody

Dana Simard created Embody after nearly two decades of supporting people through stress, trauma, chronic illness, and the complexities of everyday life. 
 

As both a clinician and nervous system educator, Dana provides clinical supervision for counsellors and Master of Counselling students at City University of Seattle. Her work integrates Somatic Experiencing®, Organic Intelligence®, Polyvagal Theory, and current neuroscience while remaining deeply respectful of each person's unique physiology, pace, and lived experience.
 

Rather than offering another program that asks you to work harder, Embody was created as a companion to help you understand yourself more deeply. It brings together decades of clinical experience, evidence-informed neuroscience, and practical everyday tools to help you build greater awareness, self-compassion, lasting nervous system health, and a greater capacity to adapt.
 

At its heart is a simple belief: your nervous system is not working against you. It has been doing its very best to help you navigate life.
