“Trauma victims cannot recover until they become familiar with and befriend the sensations in their bodies. Being frightened means that you live in a body that is always on guard. Angry people live in angry bodies. The bodies of child abuse victims are tense and defensive until they find a way to relax and feel safe. To change, people need to become aware of their sensations and the way that their bodies interact with the world around them. Physical self-awareness is the first step in releasing the tyranny of the past.”
-Dr. Bressel van der Kolk, Author of The Body Keeps the Score
Calling all survivors looking for a more embodied way to healing...
You've been to talk therapy, attempted to navigate the broken mental health care system, and are now wanting to explore alternative ways of healing
You’re ready to be free of your depression, dissociation, and depression
But as you’ve been diving deeper into your healing, your pain, anxiety, and discomfort continue to persist
The lasting effects of the painful memories of the past
You find yourself wondering -
“Is there something wrong with me?”, “Why aren't I feeling any better?” or “Is it even worth it to try anymore?”
Unfortunately, many women today are going through exactly what you’re going through. For far too long, our patriarchal society has abused, belittled, and conditioned women to believe that they are broken
Recovering from the trauma of the patriarchy can be isolating and challenging, but with the right tools and support, it doesn’t have to be.
Is this for me?

Your Guide
Riva Jean-Paul
Riva is an artist, a coach for women, and a trauma-informed somatic practitioner. She has been working closely with women and the body since 2015 as a dancer, creative director, fitness instructor, breathwork facilitator, and coach. In 2022, Riva began studying with a trauma specialist and has begun to transition her practice into trauma-informed care. Her approach to trauma recovery is a beautiful blend of spirituality, creativity, self-care, and a deep connection with the female body. Riva’s work aims to empower women to feel safe in their bodies again, take back their power, and move forward from the painful memories of the past. Riva specializes in circular breathwork, psychedelics, somatic experiencing, the moon cycle, and women’s health. As a perpetual learner, Riva's commitment to growth is woven into her ongoing education and practice and she is currently pursuing her Masters in Art Therapy & Counseling.
Riva's vision reaches beyond individual transformations; she dreams of a world shaped by resilient, connected, and empowered women leading the way. Her work is dedicated to fueling the rise of the feminine and the next women's revolution.
When she's not immersed in learning or fulfilling her life's purpose, you can find Riva cherishing moments with her husband and two cats. She finds joy in cooking, dancing, singing, and exploring new places, all while nurturing her body, mind, and soul.
FAQ
Is this therapy?
No, this is not therapy because we will not be exploring memories of the past (although they may come up). Rather, this course focuses on moving forward and creating a holistic lifestyle to support your healing.
What are somatic practices?
Somatic practices are body-based practices and very much differ from traditional talk therapy or mindset work.
How long will be offering beta pricing?
The beta group will run through at least the end of 2024!
What is a beta group?
As I am still learning, I am refining my frameworks, methods, and teachings. I am looking for women to be actively engaged with the course, offering feedback about the course materials throughout the process so I can improve upon them for women to come.
