My Skills
I blend CST and VM techniques and Somatic Experiencing to support each client on their own healing journey by facilitating pattern change with the least amount of influence, by connecting with whole body awareness to help heal from rather re-live trauma and by holding space for each patient's unique healing process to optimize physical, emotional and spiritual well being.Â

Ursula is a gifted practitioner with a gentle, yet profound touch and an uncanny sensitivity to all the systems and rhythms in the body. She is open, gracious, talented, and generous with her skills. An hour with her feels like a week’s worth of release, a reset of physical, mental, and energetic systems that leaves me feeling taller, more grounded, and more open to the environment around me. Deep gratitude. - M.D.
I feel so lucky to have found Ursula and have the opportunity to continue my work with her. Her incredible ability to listen to the body and gently encourage movement towards healing is both subtle and profound. I have worked with a lot of people for some very complex and interconnected issues stemming from both repetitive use (former pianist) and PTSD, and I have never felt the kind of deep, inner releasing and shifting, both physically and mentally, that I have experienced in Ursula's caring and patient hands. She is able to intuit what is needed on a given day, and patiently stays present throughout the process in a way that creates a safe environment for change. I cannot recommend her highly enough. - K.F.
My experience with Ursula and CranioSacral Therapy has been life changing. Her supportive, intuitive and deeply compassionate approach to my unique combination of needs, has led to ongoing relief of chronic pain, releasing of alignment patterns, a discovery of my natural unrestricted breath and processing grief. My posture is more aligned, my body more grounded and breath more expanded. A 'work in process', I am truly blown away by this experience and the shifts that occur during/after each session. Words don't do justice to this organic and very personal process. - K.B.
Working with Ursula has been an absolute game changer in my health journey. She is deeply skilled and combines CranioSacral and somatic techniques in a way that gently supports the release of tension and restores balance between body and mind. What truly sets her apart is her holistic approach. She looks at the whole body and takes all symptoms into account rather than treating issues in isolation. Each session feels safe, intuitive, and fully tailored to what your body needs in that moment. - J.T.
Ursula is an integral part of my team of experts that help me manage symptoms of hypermobility and a hypersensitive nervous system. She has a unique ability to hone in on exactly what structure is limiting efficient movement throughout my body. She has also helped me to identify emotional stressors that were a component of some of my chronic pains, which has dramatically reduced the intensity and frequency of those symptoms. As a functional manual physical therapist I have also referred many of my patients to her who have multiple interconnected “problem areas†or highly reactive nervous systems. Her expertise has helped most of them progress even further than they could with my work alone. I highly recommend Ursula as a caring, intuitive, conscientious, and effective physical therapist - especially for complex and interconnected issues. - A.H.
