  • I facilitate healing for bodies, business and brands.

    My approach is called Relational Energetic Somatic Therapy™– REST for short. It’s my own amalgamation, tested and proven over a 7-year span of study, research and practice.

    Relationship is connection.
    Energy is lifeforce.
    Soma is the body.
    Therapy is relief.

    We are always In relationship– from the deepest recesses of self– to the farthest expanses of space and time. Each and every dimension informs our individual and collective experience in the most one-of-a-kind way.

    The easiest way to frame this work is to share what it is NOT:

    It’s NOT coaching or therapy– but it connects us more deeply to our own unique experience, awakening us to our potential

    It’s NOT clinical– but it helps regulate the nervous system, providing relief and receptivity

    It’s NOT physical therapy or massage– but it gently supports the body, allowing it to relax and unwind naturally

    It’s NOT an intuitive reading– but it reconnects us to our own intrinsic intuitive knowing, granting us the freedom to be our most authentic selves

    It’s NOT business or marketing strategy– but it unearths our inner clarity, generating a clean energetic signature, embedded within all we do

    This work is supportive to any practice or protocol you may be partaking of– and a beautiful complement to all of life’s great work, by design.

  • The reasons my clients come see me are as varied as the individuals themselves.

    People turn to me when change beckons. When they’ve got big work to do in the world. When it’s time to reclaim their agency. When they’re in the dark spaces between what they knew and the unknown ahead. When they’re feeling like an unsolvable puzzle. When they’re overwhelmed and the pressure becomes too great to bear. When it’s time to lead with empathy and integrity.

    Here are just a few examples:

    I’ve guided clients as they make changes in their personal and professional lives
    I’ve treated people with cancer and chronic illness
    I’ve helped clients navigate their midlife transition and menopause
    I’ve attended to clients as they grieve a loss
    I’ve helped clients fully integrate and ceIebrate important milestones
    I’ve counseled high-performing entrepreneurs, executives and leaders
    I’ve helped facilitate communication between colleagues and clients
    I’ve attended to sufferers of abuse and neglect at the hands of trusted authorities, be they teachers, physicians, helpers or healers
    I’ve treated people for pain and recovery from surgery
    I’ve helped decipher dreams and imagery
    I’ve journeyed to assist loved ones as they cross over
    I’ve treated beloved pets
    I’ve helped with plant medicine integration
    I’ve guided rituals for special occasions
    I’ve treated many people purely for pleasure and relaxation

  • Our time together will be comprised of conversation, deep listening, attunement, intuitive guidance, and table work (when in person, with light touch or none, depending on your preferences).

    I will not ask you to change, or change anything. In fact, I will ask nothing of you, but to be present, as you are, without adjustments.

    The most common effect is a deep state of relaxation. Some people even fall asleep. Some see colors, feel twinges in their body, receive visitations, visuals or messages. And some feel absolutely nothing at all.

    Additional tools, methodologies, recommendations or referrals may be may be provided as well.

    Each experience is bespoke, totally unique, completely safe, complementary to your current protocols, and always exactly what’s needed.

  • I aim to create the most supportive, compassionate container for your ongoing evolution.

    Some of my clients look forward to returning on a weekly basis, while others reserve blocks of time when there’s a particular issue they’d like to focus on.

    The Series is a great place to start: We begin with a comprehensive intake, reconvene to check in, and follow up again to integrate. Remote work for the duration of the container is included. (3 sessions; may be repeated)

    The Bridge is a custom container for creating something bigger than yourself (3 sessions minimum)

    The Retreat is a special treat: A bespoke full-day on- or off-site intensive for deep, transformational, restorative work. (1 session)

    Even one single The Session has tremendous benefits.

    The choice is entirely yours. There’s no right, wrong, or standard protocol that works the same for everyone. Dependency is discouraged. Your spirit knows best and I’m here to facilitate.

  • Our initial session is typically 2-3 hours

    The Session is 60-90 minutes

    The Series spans 6-8 hours over the course of 3 sessions (plus additional remote work)

    The Bridge spans a minimum of 6 hours over the course of a minimum of 3 sessions (plus additional remote work)

    The Retreat spans 5-7 hours in a single day

    Virtual sessions are generally 45-60 minutes online, with the distance work completed separately

    I leave plenty of space in between appointments so we’re never rushed. There is no penalty for rescheduling prepaid sessions.

  • Like a latch, so it is with us humans– pressure must be decreased and released until there is an opening.

    Whenever we touch on something truly true, we release the belief we are a problem to be solved, and instead remember that we already are the solution.

    I do have some further inklings about why this works so well– but I choose to reserve judgement as putting a stake in the ground has the potential to limit what we experience together through these transformative sessions.

    There are tons of articles and scientific studies online about the efficacy of somatic and energy healing methodologies. Have a look around!

    My favorite analogy is Wi-Fi… it’s invisible, powerful and we all KNOW it works.

    There’s something liberating about accepting life is a mystery and not everything can be explained. We’ve taken our best guesses and come up with some really convincing theories but what we truly know barely scratches the surface!

  • Your only preparation is to be comfortable. Dress in loose clothing and wear socks if you tend to feel chilly.

    It’s helpful to be hydrated and avoid substances before and after your session to experience the treatment fully.

    If we meet in-person you may choose to relax on the heated table with a blanket, pillow, bolster and eye shade to make the experience especially cozy.

    If you are comfortable sharing your birth date, time and location, please send that information to me ahead of our session as well.

  • Absolutely! This work is not limited by spacetime and is equally effective from a distance. Sessions may be conducted by video, voice or email.

    We begin our time together with dialogue, and the remainder is transmitted separately at a mutually agreed upon time. You do not need to be resting while I work on your behalf– though I always encourage rest so you certainly can be!

    Follow ups will be communicated by video, voice or email.

  • Contact me either through the form on this site, or by email at iamkimberlin@gmail.com. I will get back to you within 24 hours.

  • My studio is conveniently located just 20 miles northwest of New York City, in Bergen County, NJ. The exact address will be provided upon booking.

    Sessions are typically held indoors, however in warmer weather we may choose to meet in my outdoor sanctuary.

  • Yes! I would love to.

    The benefits of this work are particularly wonderful for BOTH the business AND the individual.

    Benefits may include:
    Increased job satisfaction
    Improved productivity
    Stronger interpersonal harmony
    Heightened creativity
    Enhanced empathy
    More supportive team dynamics
    Decreased friction
    Strengthened retention
    Expanded sense of overall well-being

    You’ll be left with an understanding of each team member’s strengths and shadows in relation to the group they are in.

    There are so many advantages to bringing this work into your business environment. I will tailor a program to your specifications. Please reach out to learn more.

  • Yes! My offerings are bespoke and can be tailored to accommodate large and small groups. Please reach out to learn more.

  • Remember the adventures our school teachers took us on as a kid? This is the grown-up version.

    Our surroundings have a tremendous influence on us, and we are all designed to thrive in different environments. Sometimes a specific change of scenery can help bring us back into alignment– it all depends on what your particular body needs to feel wholly nourished. I’ve guided clients everywhere from museums and coffee shops to botanical gardens, beaches, cities and shopping centers. It’s so much fun!

  • Not at all! I encourage you to continue doing whatever keeps you feeling healthy and whole.

    Our work together helps your body and biofield reach a state more receptive to whatever protocols you find most helpful.

    This work is designed to complement– NOT replace– any treatments, processes or protocols prescribed by your health providers.

    Always consult your trusted physicians and advisors when implementing any new treatment plan.

  • No, I am neither. I possess a certain sensitivity that allows me to see, hear, feel and know deeply. My intuitive gifts are intended to deliver only the most essential information that’s needed for the highest and best of all involved at that moment in time.

    I have tremendous respect for psychic and mediumistic work– it can be very healing when done with the utmost integrity (and when done irresponsibly, it can also harm). I encourage you to trust yourself first and always be discerning.

    That said, I do have regular conversations with my loved ones on the other side. You can do this too– I invite you to give it a try!

  • My answer is simple: direct experience.

    For me, these practices are not merely something I do, nor a role I choose to step into, but the way I live my whole life.

    My work is informed by a half century of being a perfectly imperfect human, three decades leading and mentoring creative projects and teams, combined with countless other traditions, disciplines and therapeutic modalities I value highly.

  • Everything.
    This is the work behind all our work.

    To know thyself is to know who and how you serve– everything else stems from this place

    Life is a creative act. We are all designers. And like designers, we create signatures all the time. But what about the energetic signature that we leave behind?

    > Our every choice is a creation
    > Our creations contain our energetic signature
    > Our signature leaves an imprint
    > This imprint emits a frequency
    > This frequency shapes collective consciousness
    > Collective consciousness informs our human experience
    > Our human experience influences our every choice
    > And so it begins again…

    The realms of identity are multidimensional.

    I am a visionary architect of brand identity for business AND a compassionate archaeologist of personal identity for the individual. We excavate and we build, in our lives and in our work. The two nourish each other.

    The qualities that make me an excellent creative are the same qualities that make me an extraordinary guide– the ability to listen, see, identify patterns, discern what’s missing, intuit what’s needed, and usher it forth.

    Whether seeking to invigorate a body, business or brand, this innovative approach sets a safe, strong, strategic, supportive foundation to help expand awareness, deepen connection, amplify impact, and empower sustainable growth.

  • My practice first began as a passion project to heal myself, then grew to include services for others in need.

    I’m now expanding my reach to serve a wider audience to help people better navigate and integrate the uncertainties of living in this rapidly changing environment.

    We’re more conflicted than ever. If just a fraction of us recognized how essential each and every one of us is we can shift things for the better.

    Peace in the world begins with peace in your world.
