Life moves in cycles.
So do we.

Our energy, digestion, emotions, hormones, and our capacity to show up all follow a rhythm, especially for women.  Yet modern life wasn't built for us.   And it pulls us from the very wisdom that steadies and centers us - especially as we cross life's big thresholds.

Birth.  Adoption.  Postpartum.  Divorce.  Grief.  Loss. Caregiving. Changes in relationship, health and work. Menopause.  Identity shifts.
When these moments go untended, what we don’t digest settles into the body.  And as mothers, life often moves so fast that tending to ourselves feels impossible.

I know this intimately.  And I also know it’s never too late to slow down, listen deeply, and integrate what your body-- your bones, blood, heart and womb-- have been carrying.  Sometimes, we discover it wasn't ours to carry in the first place . 

Each cycle, season, or threshold that you meet is always an invitation to choose to truly listen and be present in the homecoming.  It's never really a reinvention, it's a remembering and returning to yourself.   

It's not a linear path. It's a spiral and the feminine pathway to healing, mothering and living from center.  There's no one way. No right way or wrong way.  Nothing is broken--you are not broken. 

Whether you feel like you are being pulled under with the current, struggling to swim while holding others above water, rising to the surface or even walking to shore...Somatic and Ayurvedic practices help us return to safety and pleasure in our bodies, our breath, and our presence...again and again. 
​

And with presence, we repair.
   We root.
      We rise.
         And we can thrive through embodied wisdom and connection.



"How might your life have been different if there had been a place for you?  A place for you to go...a place of women, to help you learn the ways of woman...a place where you were nurtured from an ancient flow sustaining you and steadying you as you sought to become yourself.  A place of women to help you find and trust the ancient flow already there within yourself ...waiting to be released. 
                     How might your life be different?"
                                                                                                     --Judith Duerk, author of  "Circle of Stones"

Welcome!  ​I'm Karla.
I support women moving through the transitions that undo and reshape us.
My work blends simple Ayurvedic practices, somatic grounding, energetic healing, and compassionate witnessing to rebuild rhythm, vitality, and trust in your inner knowing.

For 22 years, I’ve lived seasons of falling apart and coming back together—mothering through birth and adoption, navigating loss, and beginning again in my body, my home, and my calling.

The wisdom of the body and the cycles of nature have carried me back to center every time.   I've been blessed with an innate curiosity and amazing teachers. I would be honored to accompany you on your journey back home to your center-- your self.


The well-being of mothers is vital.  When mothers thrive, so can their children, families, and communities.​

I’m grateful to have learned from many teachers, elders, guides, nature, my children, and life itself. Through Discover Your Center, I aim to share holistic practices that sustain women throughout life and can be passed on to future generations. Ultimately, I believe in the profound wisdom within each of us and strive to create spaces where you can remember and reconnect with your own inner knowing.

​I also wholeheartedly believe that when we dissolve the layers of separation within ourselves, we can create authentic spaces of connection and healing with and for others from our own connection.  This is generational work.   It's slow and steady and requires presence and practice (imperfectly).  This is best done with accurate witnessing, deep compassion, support within a community, and often a guide, teacher or mentor.  

Many clients have referred to me as a "facilitator of possibilities".  I'll hold your vision with you and walk along side you. as you return home to your body, remember your wisdom and hear the whispers of your soul.

To hold spaces of healing, presence, and safety for our children and our communities,
the deeper healing begins within us.

Let’s walk this path together—with connection, curiosity, and embodiment--
remembering and reclaiming the wisdom and medicine we carry as women, mothers, and human beings.
                                                  — Karla

“Karla is the real deal! She has a wealth of knowledge about healing the body, mind and soul and has a wonderful way of being 100% supportive and non judgemental, while gently challenging me to make slow and steady shifts to be more grounded in my body, and to create/maintain habits that are nurturing and life-giving.  She’s curious, grounded, relatable, and so very kind as she helps her clients find what feels right for them.   I’ve been able to create sustainable practices that have really helped me to step into my authentic self, thrive during a global pandemic (!!) and to become a much more grounded and responsive mother and partner."
