How Care Is Coordinated
All inquiries begin with Jenn, who helps orient and support clients by scheduling and guiding them through the next steps. Based on individual needs, Jenn will coordinate and delegate care to DD, Mike, or Vic, ensuring each person is connected with the most appropriate support.
DD serves as the primary somatic practitioner, leading consultations, somatic care, and referrals as needed, while collaborating with the broader support team to provide informed, respectful, and well-paced care.

From Dismissal to Embodied Self-Advocacy
Have you ever felt dismissed—by a system, a professional, or even by yourself? I work with people who have adapted intelligently to dismissal and are ready for access instead of fixing.
I’m DD, a Somatic Nurse Practitioner with over 30 years in healthcare, including work as a paramedic, nurse, and nurse practitioner in hospital, street, and community settings.
I founded The FELT Wisdom after my own recovery from dismissal, stress, and trauma, and developed Advanced Relational Medicine™—an approach that integrates nervous system science with embodied awareness.
My work focuses on restoring access to the body so discernment, choice, and self-advocacy can emerge naturally—without forcing change.
Jenn
Administration · Client Support · Office Director
Jenn is the first point of contact at The FELT Wisdom. She leads scheduling, billing, and client support, helping ensure each person’s experience begins with clarity, care, and respect.
A retired EMS dispatcher and EMT, Jenn currently works as a patient service representative and medical assistant in a primary care office south of Boston. She is also a First Responder Treatment Provider (FRTP), somatic practitioner, and Office Director.
After years of personal work—including talk therapy, EMDR, and countless self-help approaches—Jenn found that true, sustainable healing came through somatic work. Learning to listen to her body, rather than continually pushing through or analyzing, allowed regulation, trust, and clarity to take root in a way that finally felt lasting.
This lived experience informs how Jenn supports others—especially those who may feel unsure where to begin. She understands that reaching out can be a vulnerable step, and she meets each person with steadiness, patience, and respect for their pace.

First Responder / Frontline Support · FRTP
Mike is a retired Cambridge, MA firefighter and paramedic with 40 years of frontline experience, and a peer support provider on the CISM team. He continues to work at the fire academy in Concord, NH.
He teaches first aid and CPR and serves as a First Responder Treatment Provider (FRTP), offering peer-aligned support grounded in lived experience and deep respect for the realities of frontline work.
Over the years—and especially through the transition from active duty into retirement— Mike has engaged in his own healing work, including talk therapy, EMDR, somatic practices, and Rolfing. This personal commitment to care supports his understanding of cumulative stress, identity shifts, and the long arc of frontline service.
His presence offers steadiness rather than solutions, and credibility that comes from having walked both the work and the transition himself.
How to connect: First contact is Jenn. She will coordinate scheduling and connect you with DD, Mike, or Vic based on your needs.
Victor Martignetti
First Responder Support · FRTP
Victor is a retired 35-year veteran of the Cambridge, MA police force and a Marine Corps veteran. He continues to work on police details in Cambridge.
As a First Responder Treatment Provider (FRTP), Vic offers grounded, peer-based support informed by decades of service and a deep understanding of frontline culture and cumulative stress.
Over the course of his career, Vic engaged in talk therapy and mandatory mental health services often required in frontline roles. While these supports had value, he found the most meaningful and lasting healing through mind–body integration—learning to work with stress as it lived in his body, not just as something to talk through or manage cognitively.
This lived experience shapes how Vic shows up for others: steady, respectful, and attuned to the realities of doing the work while carrying its impact.

Our Shared Foundation
As close friends and colleagues, DD and Jenn drew from years of experience in demanding healthcare settings to better understand what it takes to sustain well-being—physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.
Through lived experience, they came to see how often people are asked to override their bodies in order to function. By slowing down, stepping back, and listening to physical sensations, a different kind of understanding emerged—one grounded in access rather than effort.
This shared insight became part of the foundation of The FELT Wisdom: a space where curiosity, awareness, and readiness guide the work.
The Meaning of F.E.L.T.
The meaning of F.E.L.T. has evolved over time. Early interpretations included phrases such as “Feel Everything, Love Together” and “Feel, Embrace, Love, Triumph.”
Because each person’s experience is unique, we invite you to create your own meaning as a starting point for exploration.
Like you, this work is evolving.
We have met some amazing people along the way
