Trauma-Informed Space for Healing, Embodiment & Expression

 Some people come to me after experiencing sexual violence.
Others come as partners, friends, or family members who deeply want to support , while also navigating their own uncertainty, questions, or emotional responses.

All of these paths are welcome here.

About

Welcome

I’m Larissa Maddy.

A trauma-informed space holder, somatic guide, yoga teacher, Reiki practitioner, and artist.

My work is rooted in lived experience, deep sensitivity, and a respect for the body’s own intelligence. Before I ever guided others, I was learning how to feel safe again in my own body.

Through somatic work, movement, stillness, and art, I came to understand healing as something that unfolds slowly, without force, fixing, or urgency.

Today, I create spaces that honor pace, consent, and nervous system safety. Spaces where nothing needs to be performed, explained, or rushed.

What I offer comes from presence, care, and listening. Because I know how important it is to be met with understanding and empathy.

How I Work

My work is trauma-informed and body-based.
I do not push, analyse, or force healing.


Instead, I focus on:


  • safety in the body
  • nervous system regulation
  • orientation and grounding 
  • restoring a sense of choice, dignity, and agency
     

My offerings do not replace medical or psychotherapeutic treatment.
They are designed to complement, support, or gently bridge existing care.

4-Week Somatic Support After Sexual Trauma

There is a phase after sexual trauma that often goes unsupported.

The weeks or months after. When you freeze, disconnect, or feel constantly on edge. You simply want to feel safe.

Return to Safety is a structured 4-week somatic support container designed to help you gently restore a sense of internal safety.
