Hi, I’m Kate

“As a child, I loved to spin in circles. I would put on every petticoat I could find and whirl to any music. I was delighted to be in my body, and felt in touch with something bigger than myself. I’ve learned to trust my body as my guide.“

Since Kate founded BodyMindMovement Therapeutics in 1984, she has been innovating in the field of mind-body integration. Her special expertise is Somatics, an integral body-centered approach that helps people reconnect with internal wisdom. Mindfulness, movement and other practices lead to increased sensory-awareness resulting in greater well-being, peace, and confidence.

Kate comes from a dance background and earned her Movement Therapy degree from California State University Fresno, with additional education in movement, embodiment and psychology in Europe and the United States. Kate is also a registered movement therapist (RMT) and a certified massage therapist (CMT). With an innate passion for learning, she trained as a Life Coach at the Transformational Leadership and Coaching Training, and incorporates her apprenticeship in Native American earth-based spirituality and the Continuum Movement Method. Most recently, Kate’s work is informed by Psychophysical Therapy and Sensori-motor Psychotherapy, as well as current research on neurobiology and attachment.

Kate lives in San Francisco with offices in a beautiful Cow Hollow courtyard. She is committed to reaching more people with the benefits of living an embodied and balanced life. Once a month, Kate travels to care for her 102-year-old mother.
