Embodiment Teacher · Somatic Coach · Registered Dietitian
Own your space, your power, and your energy.
A slow, honest return to the body you already live in, where your edges are yours again and your energy stays with you. Supporting you to come back into your body, reclaim your presence, and inhabit your life from the inside out.
We know the way we're living is not really working.
Often times we are not tuned into ourselves or our bodies, especially when we live in a world that never stops and functions primarily from the thinking mind. With rising rates of burnout, chronic stress, and disconnection from the body, it is evident that we have lost our innate ability to feel safe, present, and at home in ourselves. This drives cycles of override, collapse, and depletion that are simply not sustainable.
It is a critical life skill to befriend your nervous system, own your energetic space, and rebuild the capacity to be present in your own body. When you know how to stay in your own system, you stop unconsciously giving your power away, and you become clearer, more steady, and more fully alive.
How My Work Differs
True impact starts from within.
Most modern practices focus on external strategy, skipping the most critical step: establishing a deep, felt sense of self. I help established professionals, executives, and leaders build an unshakeable internal foundation. By learning to truly know your system, decode your patterns, and feel safe in your body, you unlock a higher level of leadership, presence, and relational intelligence.
True presence, peak performance, and lasting recovery all share the same foundation: a deeply grounded nervous system. Most modern approaches try to solve challenges from the mind down, skipping the most critical step, establishing a felt sense of self first. Without that physical baseline of safety in your body, it is nearly impossible to shift deep-seated patterns, sustain high performance, or feel truly at home in your own skin.

Integrated Nutrition
Nutrition that meets the whole of you.
I am a Registered Dietitian, and nutrition is one of the ways I support people in coming home to their bodies. It is personalized, integrated nutrition. Teaching you to honor your body through nourishment. I have worked with individuals navigating eating disorders and disordered eating. I also practice functional nutrition and getting to the root of what is causing misalignment. Helping you come into alignment truly with feeling at home in your body.
Because how you eat is inseparable from how you feel, we work with the whole picture, so nourishment becomes a place of return rather than another place of performance.
Clinical Expertise
As a Registered Dietitian, my work is grounded in real clinical training. You receive guidance rooted in evidence.
Nervous System and Nourishment
How you eat is shaped by how you feel. We work with the nervous system alongside nutrition, so nourishment becomes something your body can actually receive.
Functional Nutrition
Getting to the root of what is causing misalignment, including labs, so we understand what is actually happening beneath the surface.
Your Whole Relationship with Food
For people healing their relationship with food and their body. We move beyond meal plans and macros into the deeper patterns, beliefs, and history that shape how you eat and how you feel in your skin.
Integrated, Not Isolated
Nutrition is woven together with embodiment, somatic presence, and energy work. The whole picture is honored, so change happens at the level where it actually lasts.
Featured Work
Energy Foundations for Embodiment
"When you know how to stay in your own system, you stop unconsciously dumping stress, emotion, or unfinished charge onto the people around you."
Energy Foundations for Embodiment is a foundational body of work. It teaches you to live in your own energetic system, grounded, boundaried, and present. Not as a concept. As a lived, felt experience.
You learn to own your space, to feel where you end and others begin. You learn to own your power, to stop leaking your energy into situations, relationships, and environments that drain you. You learn to own your energy, to contact the unbroken core of who you are, beneath the patterns, the performance, and the protection.
These are practical, learnable skills. And they change everything.

Lived experience. Deep training. A path back to yourself.
My own path began with control, extreme discipline, and a complete physical collapse that forced me to stop. What I discovered in rebuilding was that lasting change doesn't come from more rules. It comes from learning how to live inside your body again.
I am a Registered Dietitian (Cornell B.S., NYU M.S.) and embodiment teacher. I use the modality of Energy Foundations for Embodiment.

Testimonials
"I started with Michelle looking for accountability and support, and I'm so grateful I found her. Her bio immediately stood out to me because of her holistic approach, and she has exceeded every expectation since. I truly feel seen and heard in our sessions. I'm able to share my bad habits, unconventional perspectives, and personal beliefs without any judgment; she holds space for my reality in a way that feels deeply supportive and validating. Michelle provides meal guidance that actually fits my chaotic schedule, which has made consistency feel achievable instead of overwhelming. Meeting with her feels like sitting down with a friend who also has the knowledge and wisdom to gently propel me forward. I also deeply appreciate how she suggests healing modalities that balance my mind, body, and soul, helping me address the root causes of my poor eating habits. Working with Michelle has felt aligned, empowering, and truly nourishing in every sense."

Aaron Weill
"She doesn't just talk about transformation. She embodies it. She is a leader because she has walked the path she preaches. She has guided many through the chaos of modern life, isolation of eating disorders, and the quiet war they wage against their own self and bodies."
Derek Cozzens
"Michelle has been one of the most consistent and reliable person I've worked with. She knows how to understand and find solutions for anything you are dealing with. Understanding where my energy goes when I'm not at my best and learning how to ground myself in those moments. She has shown that your life has callings and you should listen and discover."
Nyjah Scurlock
"Working with Michelle feels like stepping into a space of immediate warmth, deep presence, and genuine care. From our very first interaction, her desire to truly connect and support me was undeniable. She listened attentively as I shared my concerns, asking thoughtful questions that helped us pinpoint exactly what I was seeking. What sets Michelle apart is her intuitive, layered approach; she grounded our session in simple breathwork, inviting me to sink back into my body so we could explore what was waiting to move within me from a safe, open, and vulnerable space. As a somatic embodiment coach and therapist, Michelle has a remarkable ability to read and guide subtle shifts in energy. From that place of deep grounding, she gently helped bring forward and release long-held energetic blocks and fears I hadn't been able to move on my own. Towards the end of the session, she expertly helped me integrate three previously fragmented parts of myself into my most aware, capable, present self. It wasn't just insight, it was a tangible, felt transformation. By the end of our time together, I felt like a completely different man. I left with a newfound willingness to be vulnerable, a lighter heart, and the clarity to take necessary actions and hold meaningful conversations to move my life forward. Michelle is an exceptional practitioner at every level: mind, body, heart, and soul. I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone ready for true lasting integration."
