The Well is a portal into vibrant connection with yourself and a community of other powerful women.
A place to expand and make space for the grief and joy of living.
A place to reconnect to who we are outside of the responsibilities of life.

Clients that see me for individual therapy or somatic coaching who are interested in joining The Well for a workshop or series must discuss with me in session before registering. Together we will determine whether working in a group setting is the right fit, meets client’s stated goals, and supports our individual work.

THE WELL FACILITATORS

Jen Oato Bennett (she/her), RYT, is a yoga and dance teacher, and a Somatic Experiencing Practioner-in-training. Her style of yoga is rooted in dance and believes moving our bodies in community provides a uniquely important medium for healing. Jen is passionate about bringing a mixture of playful and intuitive movement to The Well. Additionally, Jen brings 5 years of training in diversity and equity work to The Well. Jen is a mixed-race, cis-gender, queer woman, and a mom to a three-year-old son and two fur-babies. She loves travel, finding a body of water to dip her toes into, long conversations by a fire with friends, and a good chocolate chip cookie.

Jenny Wade (she/her), MA, LMHC + RYT, is a psychotherapist and yoga teacher who specializes in trauma recovery and body image healing. She believes that expression through movement, sound, and visual arts are a superhighway to freedom. Her mission is to teach the world that your body is not an object to critique, but a part of yourself to accept and connect to deeply. Jenny is a white, cis-gender, queer woman. When she's not working she can be found cooking and sharing delicious meals, appreciating good stories both written and spoken, practicing yoga, and enjoying family time with her sweet and hilarious husband, son, and kitty.

Julie Jean Davidson (she/her), MA, LMHC, SEP is a somatic psychotherapist based in Seattle (un-ceded Duwamish Territory). She brings ten years of experience working with individuals, couples and groups—helping people heal trauma, recover their innate sense of goodness, and reclaim connection to their body, sexuality, and identity. Her work centers around connecting to self and community through somatic, nervous system, and trauma-informed modalities. Julie loves caring for folks in the sacred perinatal period, and knows the value of support during this time as she has three young children of her own. She is as a white, cis, queer woman who loves cooking, taking risks, and eating around a table with soulful people.
