Healing the Female Your Nervous System with Kimberly Ann Johnson

Kimberly Ann Johnson is a Sexological Bodyworker, Somatic Experiencing® practitioner, yoga teacher, postpartum advocate, and single mom. She helps women heal from birth injuries, gynecological surgeries, and sexual boundary violations. She is the author of the Call of the Wild: How We Heal Trauma, Awaken Our Own Power, and Use It for Good as well as the early mothering classic The Fourth Trimester.

As a Somatic Experiencing™ Practitioner, educator, and author, Kimberly help’s women heal trauma, awaken their power and feel at home in their bodies to start living life on their own terms. I’ve always had a deep knowing that I was in this world to change things for the better.

All of that came into sharp focus though, when I became a mother. My whole life changed completely in that moment, I had to learn a new way of being in the world. That gave me the “what”. Learning the Somatic Experiencing™ tools and having my world rearranged all over again in that experience gave me the “how”. Now, I use my training, education, experience, and advocacy to help women get closer to their blueprints, unpack all those layers of habits and conditioning, so they can hear what their body’s telling them, and know who they really are.
