🦋 Meet Ann Marie Mackey
Somatic & Strategic Transformation Practitioner
I help people who carry more than they show release what’s heavy and return to steadiness, clarity and peace.
With over 25 years in corporate leadership and executive consulting, I understand the pressure to perform, deliver and hold it all together while quietly running on empty.
In 2009, the loss of my 18-year-old son changed the course of my life.
Healing became essential and eventually, it became my calling.
Today, I’m a Registered Naturopath with advanced trauma-informed training in somatic, mind–body therapies, supporting deep, lasting change through both clinical expertise and lived wisdom.
🌿 My work brings together strategic insight, nervous-system care and grounded spiritual presence - creating a safe, respectful space for real transformation.
Each session is attuned to what your system needs most, supporting clarity, resilience and sustainable inner strength.

🌿 ARE YOU CARRYING MORE THAN YOU SHOW?
- Feeling overwhelmed or emotionally exhausted.
- Navigating loss, change or prolonged stress.
- Feeling stuck despite “doing the work”.
- Longing to feel calm, clear and connected again.
Life can get heavy.
Stress accumulates.
Grief lingers.
Old wounds resurface when you least expect them.
You may be holding it together on the outside,
while feeling overwhelmed, anxious or disconnected inside.
Some days you’re managing.
Other days it takes everything you have just to get through.
If any of this feels familiar, you’re not alone
and you don’t have to keep carrying it by yourself.
🌿 A DIFFERENT WAY FORWARD
Many people arrive here because life has become loud, fast or heavy -
and something inside knows it can’t keep going this way.
Loss, stress and prolonged pressure don’t just affect our thoughts -
over time, they shape how we feel, relate and move through the world.
Much of what we carry - the weight of loss, prolonged stress, unspoken pain, disappointment, shame or change - is grief.
When these experiences don’t have a place to be felt, expressed or processed, they don’t disappear -
they settle into the body and nervous system and influence how we relate, cope and live.
This work offers a calm, compassionate space to slow down, release what has been carried for too long and reconnect with what truly matters.
🌿 Grief Is Broader than We Think
Grief doesn’t only arrive through death. It also comes from losses that don’t always get named or recognized as grief, including:
- The end of a relationship or marriage.
- Estrangement or family rupture.
- Health challenges or loss of physical ability.
- Missed dreams or versions of life you thought you would have.
- Pregnancy or reproductive loss.
- Identity shifts or life-stage transitions.
- Career disruption, job loss, burnout or trauma.
- A fading sense of purpose, meaning or belonging.
- Collective, cultural or community grief.
Many people carry these losses silently, without language or support.
Over time, unacknowledged grief can settle into the body and nervous system - showing up as overwhelm, anxiety, numbness or a sense of being stuck and disease.
This is where gentle, well-held holistic support can make a difference.
🌿 START HERE With A Ground & Orient Session
A 60-minute private session to help you ground, settle your nervous system and orient to next steps - personal or professional well-being services.
🌿 How We Continue Working Together
Relief can begin in a single session.
Deeper, lasting change unfolds through consistency, safety and time.
Just as the body needs consistent care to heal and strengthen, emotional and nervous-system resilience develops through ongoing, supportive work that allows patterns to soften and integration to unfold gradually.
Most people choose to continue beyond an initial session in one or more of the following ways.
There is no one "right" pace or path. This work always meets you where you are and supports you one grounded step at a time.
What matters is choosing a level of support that allows your system to truly settle and restore - not just cope.
🌿 Personal 1:1 Somatic Support
For those who prefer a private, contained space to work at their own pace.
I offer multi-session 1:1 programs for people navigating emotional overload, prolonged stress or major life transitions. This work provides consistent, individualized somatic support that allows trust, steadiness and integration to build over time.
Some people choose 1:1 work as their primary path. Others combine it with group programs or retreats, depending on their needs and season of life.
🌿 Professional 1:1 Services
Private, high-touch executive-level support for professionals carrying sustained responsibility.
This work offers strategic somatic support for those navigating complexity, pressure and high-consequence roles - helping restore clarity, steadiness and grounded presence over time.
🌿 Programs For Organizations
Programs designed to support teams, leaders and organizations navigating stress, change and sustained performance demands.
This includes facilitated workshops, retreats and advisory support that help organizations reset, realign and build resilient, human-centered systems.
🌿 Somatic Grief & Loss Support
Grief doesn’t only arrive through death. It also lives in unspoken losses, ruptures and life changes that are often carried quietly and alone.
I offer dedicated grief and loss support through private 1:1 work and guided group programs, supporting you in whatever form grief takes.
This work meets grief with gentleness and respect, helping it soften and integrate without rushing or fixing.
🌿 Somatic Group Programs
Guided group experiences combining somatic therapy, therapeutic movement and nervous-system support. Programs may include stretching and restoration, yoga-based practices, breathwork, women's circles and other embodied practices - depending on the focus of the group.
These groups offer steady, trauma-informed support in a shared setting, helping participants release tension, regulate their systems and reconnect with themselves through somatic practice.

🌿 Ready for Deeper Support?
If you’re ready for a more spacious somatic session, you can begin with a Clarity & Reset Session.
The Clarity & Reset Session is an extended 90-minute private session designed for deeper, unhurried support - allowing you to slow down, release what’s been weighing on you and reconnect with yourself without pressure to perform.
With more time and presence, this session supports nervous-system regulation, clarity and gentle release at a pace your body can trust.
Many people choose to continue with a multi-session program afterwards to support deeper, lasting change, as outlined on the Personal Well-being webpage.
Limited sessions available each month.
