Who We Work With:  

The Hyper-Independent, High-Achieving, Parentified Daughter

You're the one people count on. The one who figures it out and keeps all the plates spinning. You're exceptional at it. You're also quietly exhausted. Underneath it all is anxiety that never fully quiets, a sense of purpose that's gotten blurry, and a body keeping score of everything you haven't let yourself feel. You might be neurodivergent or are starting to wonder if you are. This is the work of coming back to yourself. Not to achieve less. To move from a place that's actually sustainable, embodied, and yours. 

Mental Health and Healthcare Professionals

Therapists, physicians, coaches. You're the one holding space and pouring all of your time, energy, and brilliance to help everyone else. You need more than a 5 minute break in between patients while you scroll on your phone and try to finish notes. We focus on stress resilience and precision under extreme pressure, burnout prevention and recovery, and reigniting your sense of purpose, joy, and creativity.

Founders, Leaders,& Executives

Whether your goal is starting an entirely new business, scaling bigger than you have before, or stepping into a higher, more visible roll, what got you here isn't what's gong to get you to the next level.  Break through the self-sabotage and imposter syndrome that show up at every new level of growth. Scale your internal capacity alongside your business, with emotional regulation under pressure, and the capacity to lead others without burning yourself out to do it.

The SOMANI Approach

We offer an integrative methodology that sits at the intersection of nervous system healing, subconscious change, and embodied leadership. 

Through somatic practices, evidence-based neuroscience, and clinical hypnotherapy we create powerful, long lasting shifts in performance blocks, burnout, anxiety, and identity disconnection. 

This work is ideal for clients who've done conventional coaching and talk therapy and want support integrating and embodying their awareness and new habits. 

Hi! I'm Julia. 

Certified Clinical Hypnotist & SOMANI Founder

Clients often come to me highly self-aware.

They understand their patterns, yet still feel stuck in overdrive. Their knowledge isn't translating into feeling and acting differently.

I support high performing women and queer folks who are successful on paper but internally wired, burnt out , or doubting whether this pace is sustainable to take off the mask and embody their Authentic selives in life, love, and leadership. 

This work sits at the intersection of nervous system regulation, subconscious change, and embodied leadership. Our sessions are both practical and will take you far below surface level, resulting in massive change often in just one session. 

Clients have said that our work feels like 'some kind of witchy brain magic.'

I bring my full, neurospicy, queer, fellow high-achiever self to our work. Together, we'll build the capacity to hold the life you’ve always dreamed of, without losing yourself in the process.

If I had to guess, I’d say you want…

  • A grounded sense of self-trust—where high standards and self-compassion coexist, and your worth no longer rises and falls with performance or outcomes.
  • Confidence in your internal signals—so you can make clear decisions, regulate your emotions under pressure, and lead without overthinking or second-guessing yourself.
  • To reach your next revenue and visibility goals—more money, more impact, even bigger stages, while staying regulated, present, and connected to yourself.
  • Relationships that feel secure and supportive—at home and at work—where you can rest, be honest, and trust that you’re not carrying everything alone.
  • Relief that leadership no longer feels so heavy—boundaries feel clean, collaboration feels possible, and your business moves forward without constant self-sacrifice.

What if you could feel truly and authentically successful? What if life felt good—like, really good?

"Working with Julia has been one of the most transformative experiences of my life.

 After leaving a successful corporate career to pursue my passion, I spent three years feeling stuck, frustrated, and ready to give up on my entrepreneurial goal. From our very first session, Julia helped me reconnect with the confident, disciplined version of myself I’d completely lost sight of. Her approach isn’t fluffy or “woo-woo”. It’s grounded, structured, and incredibly effective.

 She helped me break through deep-seated perfectionism, self-doubt, and imposter syndrome, while giving me practical tools and accountability that actually moved the needle. In just a short time, I’ve experienced massive shifts in how I think, work, and show up, both in business and in life. Julia didn’t just coach me; she became a true partner in my growth. I’m beyond grateful for her guidance and can honestly say she helped me remember who I am and what I’m capable of."

~ Andrea, Entrepreneur

"Julia is a truly exceptional hypnotherapist and so much more. Her ability to create a safe, calming space allows you to feel comfortable opening up and exploring even the most challenging areas of your life.

Julia's sessions are a blend of deep relaxation, emotional clarity, and actionable insights. She has a unique talent for identifying the root causes of issues, whether anxiety, self-doubt, or unhelpful habits are the issue, and addressing them in a way that feels empowering and achievable.

If you’re seeking someone who goes above and beyond, offering not just expertise but also genuine care and dedication, Julia is the perfect choice. She has helped me make meaningful changes that I didn’t think were possible, and I’m endlessly grateful for her guidance."

~ A. Brittany, Creative
