Our Story Transformative Mind-Body Health Support

As close friends, DD and Jenn drew upon their extensive experience in the demanding healthcare industry to better understand the challenges of balancing physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. Their shared journey of self-discovery inspired a profound exploration of the deep connection between mind and body, leading to meaningful change and transformation.

By stepping back, slowing down, and tuning into their physical sensations, they underwent a remarkable transformation that led to the emergence of The FELT Wisdom. This understanding embodies the journey of insight.

The FELT Wisdom offers a unique opportunity to explore your inner landscape with curiosity.

The F.E.L.T. Wisdom Acronym

Initially, DD interpreted the F.E.L.T. acronym as "Feel Everything, Love Together," while Jenn suggested an alternative: "Feel Embrace, Love Triumph." Since every individual is unique, acronyms can differ from person to person. We invite you to create your own F.E.L.T. mnemonic as a starting point for your journey.

Like you, our journey is evolving.

About Me

I work as a Somatic Functional Nurse Practitioner on a quest to make holistic health feel more accessible and less overwhelming. With over 30 years in healthcare, I’ve learned what truly helps people heal—and what doesn’t.

I founded The FELT Wisdom after discovering my own healing path through years of trial, error, and resilience. Along the way, I created Advanced Relational Medicine —a way to move forward, build connections, and honor the healing arts.

My mission is to empower people to be themselves—the way they want to be. I bring together medical expertise, somatic wisdom, science, and lived experience to walk alongside others as they uncover their own capacity for healing and resilience.

We support your nervous system so your body can heal,

And then lifestyle change becomes natural, not forced.

I am a survivor.

My favorite animal, the bald eagle, symbolizes resilience and recovery from near extinction. It represents hope and emphasizes the importance of conserving the natural world.

The bald eagle is officially the national bird of the US.

About Jenn

Hello, I'm Jenn, and I'm thrilled to welcome you here.

I am the office director and co-owner of The FELT Wisdom. Over the past two years, I've been undergoing EMDR therapy and have been in talk therapy for several years to address complex trauma. The COVID pandemic brought significant work-related trauma and stress into my life; I was looking for another modality outside of my current therapy.

During my research, I discovered the importance of the mind-body connection, which led me to explore the profound impact of Somatic Stress Release (SSR), founded by Dr. Scott Lyons. This transformative approach has had a significant effect on me. SSR has provided insights into how stress manifests in the body and taught me methods to release it. This experience led me to focus on somatics, and I’m delighted to offer my services to support you on your journey.

I am working toward becoming certified in Somatic Stress Release, and I am Polyvagal Informed. I am working towards my MindBody Coaching, Somatic Attachment, Developmental trauma therapy, & EMDR certifications.

My professional background includes hotel management, medical assistant certification, and emergency medical services as an EMT and dispatcher.

I am a trauma survivor.

I love spending quality time with my dogs and cats, tidying up my home, driving beyond the city, practicing mindfulness, and enjoying walking and running. I also appreciate dressing up occasionally, though I prefer a casual look. I cherish the moments I spend with my friends and family.

My animal is the black panther…

Black Panthers sends an invitation to delve into the hidden realms of the dreamer’s psyche, exploring repressed emotions, desires, or aspects of the self. She symbolizes courage, beauty, grace, protection, independence, and innate strength.
