I didn’t choose this work by accident.
My body led me here.
I’m Carolyn Ulitsky
A somatic practitioner, bodywork therapist, and BodyMind coach.
For much of my life, I lived the way many women do: capable, responsible, pushing through stress and discomfort while staying outwardly “fine.” Like many of my clients, I learned early how to override my body’s signals in order to keep going.
Eventually, my body asked for something different.
That moment changed how I understand healing, not as something we force, but as something we allow when the body finally feels safe enough to speak.
How I Work
My work is grounded in the understanding that stress, emotion, and life experience live in the body, not just the mind.
I combine:
Therapeutic bodywork and muscle therapy
Somatic awareness and nervous system regulation
Gentle coaching and guided inquiry
Breath, presence, and intuitive listening
Together, these create a space where your body can soften, release, and reorganize naturally.
Rather than focusing only on symptoms, we listen for patterns and work with them compassionately.
The SomaWISE Method
Everything I offer is rooted in the SomaWISE Method, a body centered approach that helps you reconnect with your body’s wisdom and move toward clarity, safety, and ease.
You’ll experience this work through:
Somatic Coaching
One-on-one in-person or online support to help you regulate your nervous system, understand your patterns, and feel grounded and clear again.
Therapeutic Bodywork & Muscle Therapy
Intuitive, hands-on work to release stored tension, support healing, and restore ease in your body.
Seasonal Workshops
Half-day experiences designed to reset your nervous system and reconnect you with yourself.
Each offering meets you where you are, at your own pace.
You don’t need to know exactly what’s wrong.
You don’t need to have the right words.
You only need a willingness to listen.
When you’re ready, I’m here.
