What would it mean to get out of survival mode, deeply trust yourself and truly come alive? What if it's your nervous system and not you?
HOLISTIC PRACTICE
PHILOSOPHY
Hi, I'm Jervais
I’m a Somatic Therapist, Counsellor and nervous system educator offering online virtual sessions. I use body-oriented modalities, talk therapy & mindfulness practices to support those struggling with anxiety, overwhelm, PTSD, depression, codependency and trauma to help them become their own medicine and tap into the innate wisdom of their body.
My greatest lessons have come from my deepest heartaches and my lived, direct experience has, like so many of us, taken me to all sorts of weird, wonderful and, at times, very dark places. A few of those places were so dark and seemingly insurmountable that I was sure I was never going to see the light again. On a daily basis I walked around with my nervous system in 100% survival mode, almost 100% of the time. I also carried a deep shame—the feeling that I was either inherently wrong or bad. I had a decade of darkness; on the other side, I discovered healing, balance, freedom, authenticity and the innate wisdom of the heart.
You have everything you need to heal within you, too. My role is to be a light, a way-shower, a support and a guide that points you back to you. To help you to discover your own inner knowing. To help you understand your nervous system and how to support it in practical, livable ways. I'm here to co-regulate with you and provide a safe refuge... to support you in embodying your wholeness and living that innate knowing, new found capacity and sovereignty.
If you are curious or just want to get a little more info, I offer a free discovery call. This is not a “sales call”. Rather, it is an opportunity for us to connect where you can ask any questions you might have and we can see if we might be a fit to work together. Just click the button on the left to book a time that works for you.

Getting Started Healing the Overstimulated Nervous System
If you feel like you’ve tried everything (or many things) and you still feel stuck, the problem is not you! It’s likely that you were never taught how to work with the essential and fundamental foundation for any healing to take place: the ability to work with your own nervous system responses.
​
It’s not needlessly complex, and it’s not something only “some” people can do based on inborn talents or capacities: it is an easily learnable skill. It just took a long time for therapy to catch up to this piece, and many therapeutic practices are not yet teaching it.
The purpose of this free workbook is to help you discover the signs of an overstimulated nervous system, get an intro to nervous system healing and learn somatic practices that you can immediately play with to shift your own state.
What Clients Say
"Jervais was a rock for me through one of the most difficult periods of my life. There is no question that I moved through things in a very short amount of time that might have taken me years (or even decades) to process because of her kind reflections and unwavering support. Her patience seemed never-ending and, honestly, super-human. I always felt safe to share what was really going on with me, from the silliest anxieties to the most overwhelming questions and emotions."
