Welcome to my practice supporting families, babies and adults!

Gentle approaches that support the nervous system and early-life patterns. 

Good for pregnancy stress, birth trauma, sleep/feeding concerns, or deep nervous-system regulation work.​

Kate White
Welcome — I’m Kate White.
I support babies, children, and adults whose earliest experiences are still shaping how their bodies and nervous systems feel today. Many people find me when they’re noticing things like:
  • Anxiety, pain or overwhelm that doesn’t quite make sense
  • Birth or early medical experiences that still echo in the body
  • Feeding, sleep, bonding, or regulation challenges with babies or children
  • Feeling “stuck” despite lots of personal work or therapy
My work brings together prenatal and perinatal somatics, gentle bodywork, and trauma-informed nervous system support. We look at how early life — from conception through birth and infancy — lives in the body now, and how it can be safely integrated.
This work is slow, respectful, and collaborative. Your body sets the pace. Consent is ongoing. You are in charge of your process.
Healing starts with the body — and you don’t have to do it alone. Choose the path that fits you:
Expecting or new parents navigating pregnancy, birth, bonding, or feeding click Care for Babies or Care for Families
Adults discovering patterns rooted in early life such as attachment patterns or early trauma, click Care for Adults
Professionals seeking trauma- and body-informed training click Workshops and Training
​If you are a passionate learner, curious and want to know more about Prenatal and Perinatal Somatics, click our Overview or browse our list of Talks, Webinars and Educational Offerings where you will find blogs, vlogs, podcast, publications and more.
