Kate Kennedy PT

As a Manual Therapist, Teacher or Mentor, Kate will help you build communication between your conscious brain and the intelligence of all the other parts of you. Kate developed Whole Body Decision Making to teach about the connections between our physical, energetic and emotional layers and how this affects our overall health.

As we release the blockages that keep us from being fully present, we can more fully experience our own wisdom and discernment. Bringing awareness to and changing our relationship with how we hold patterns of trauma and protection, within any part of us, enhances our awareness of when our energy is being drained or when we are taking on energy from others.

 Whole Body Decision Making Classes for Everyone

NEXT CLASS JANUARY 18
Registration open now!

Do you feel like you are working way too hard to manage your health? your time? your relationships? your whole life?

Whole Body Decision Making classes invite you to make space within yourself so that you can recognize what prevents you from accessing your own internal wisdom. When you increase your awareness of yourself, physically, emotionally and energetically, you are more fully present and more empowered to efficiently filter input and make better choices.

  • Do you put off decisions because you are never sure you can make the right one?

  • Do you make quick decisions that you regret later?

  • Do you find yourself overwhelmed and paralyzed by too many choices?

  • Do the opinions of others have too much influence on you?

It is only through accessing your own ability to resonate with what is truly right for you that you can make the best and most satisfying choices in every area of your life.

“The whole body decision making class I attended this past fall helped me SO much--it's been a game-changer. I haven't experienced that degree of change in such a short period of time in my life before.”
Z.A.

”What resonated with me most was the meditation for our nervous system. It makes a lot of sense and is so simple and I’ve honestly reminded myself every day since of that very same thing!”
M.B.

Whole Body Decision Making Classes for Therapists

NEXT SERIES BEGINS FEBRUARY 1

The goal is to become a more effective and efficient practitioner so that you can have a more sustainable and more enjoyable practice.

Cultivating Unshakeable Therapeutic Presence is a series of 3 day long retreats spaced 1-2 weeks apart to give you time to process and work with the tools learned in each class. Drawing from over 30 years of experience working with clients across all ages and backgrounds, Kate shares her unique combination of approaches to working with the whole person. From the beginning of the first class, you will learn to deepen your presence, building more confidence in your ability to hold a productive space for your clients without sacrificing your own energy.

However you interact with people in a therapeutic capacity, your most powerful tool is your presence. The more we can remain grounded and aware of our mental, physical and energetic boundaries, the more able we are able to hold a space that is both productively challenging and safe. The deeper our trust in ourselves, the more we can trust clients to identify, explore and enact their own unique solutions.

Wow, I am learning so much from what I've integrated into my practice! I'm also learning that I can trust my intuition more and let go of trying so hard to listen“
