Reconnect with your aliveness
Welcome to my website.
Find your way back to trust, aliveness, and presence in your life. Body-centered work supports you in reconnecting with your own wisdom - learning to listen to what your body knows alongside what your mind understands.
You're invited to explore what you hold, to ground in your experience, to be authentic. To discover your "yes" to life and also your "no". The work isn't about becoming someone new - it's about reconnecting with who you've always been.
How I can support you
Sometimes we need support to go into the darker rooms we've been avoiding - to feel what needs to be felt, release what's ready to be released, and reconnect with our capacity for genuine aliveness.
I work with people who know their story but want to actually feel different. We explore what your body holds through trauma-informed, body-centered work that integrates both your thoughts and your physical experience.
What shifts:
Chronic patterns lose their grip
You reconnect with your body's wisdom
Old tension begins to release
You discover what aliveness actually feels like in your system
Sessions are available within days, both in-person in Cazenovia and online.
About
I'm Katherine Kaufmann, and I've spent the last 5 years supporting people through the deeper work of reconnecting with themselves.
After practicing as a licensed practitioner of psychotherapy in Germany, I've relocated to upstate New York where I continue this work as a trauma-informed somatic coach. I'm a NARM Practitioner and Teaching Assistant, trained in approaches that work with both mind and body.
My background as a professional dancer taught me that the body holds what words can't always reach. This work honors that - meeting you where insight ends and embodied change begins.
Disclaimer: This is coaching, not psychotherapy or medical treatment. I am not currently licensed to practice psychotherapy in New York State. If you are experiencing a mental health crisis or need clinical treatment, please contact a licensed mental health provider.

So go. Love intentionally, extravagantly, unconditionally. The broken world waits in darkness for the light that is you.“
