CLIENT LOVE
Nisha, Midwife for Seasoned Creators
“It takes a lot for me to trust someone to hold me, fully. I need to feel their depth. I need to rock with enough of their politics to trust their seeing. I need to feel the steadiness of their eyes, heart and thighs. I need to feel a little “shook” in their presence — that perfect amount where I feel deeply safe and also invited to grow into the depths of intimacy. I need to know they have a sense of humor, like they can really dance with reverence and irreverence. I need to feel stimulated by their aliveness and ticked by their wisdom. I need to feel the queerness in them. When I found Elisa, I was like, welp, there she is. I love working with Elisa 1-on-1. She’s magical-radical. I highly recommend her, if you want to spiral deeper and deeper with yourself, on EVERY level.”
Freddi, Coach & Consultant guiding Social Sector Innovation
“I reached out to Elisa a year ago when I could feel myself cracking. My knees were buckling under the pressure of unexpressed and, within myself, unembraced eros. I felt fragile from the deepening wounds of avoiding myself. I knew I needed support from someone who had a deep intimacy with what eros is here to tell us. When I came across Elisa’s work I felt both shaken and soothed in exactly the way I needed to. Elisa’s quality of presence is the best, most dangerous kind of safety. She occupies a large space and, like gas, we expand toward the size of the space holding us. Expansion can feel daunting. In my case, it always feels daunting. Elisa has the strength to support this experience with complete tenderness while never shrinking the size of the space she occupies. This nuance in her support leaves just one possibility when the confronting energies arise: settle in with them. Slow down with them. Of course, this reveals them for what they are and allows our experience of them to transmute. Eros, queerness, fear, longing, grief—our large friends of aliveness. And within them? Juice. Cackling. Ourselves. What a joy. Elisa is a steady-handed midwife for this technicolor truth within us. I feel so very grateful to have worked with her.”
Sarah, Midwife & Herbalist
“As a birth worker, I am often shepherding women more deeply into connection with their instincts, and I see more broadly how we all need a midwife to usher us through life’s portals of transformation. I was drawn to working with Elisa, and through an out-of-the-box therapeutic relationship and mentoring, she lead me deeper into my own gnosis, intuition and practice of bold truth-telling. Elisa gently charged me with the task of honestly writing my own life stories, through journaling, music, poetry and storytelling. She created so much safety around my most tender wounds that this shared writing practice got me into a flow of self evaluation, inquiry, honesty and integrity that I haven’t tapped into through any other healing modality. She helped me embrace the paradox in this complex human experience- no one story is all good or all bad, and there is wisdom accessible in all of it. Journaling through our work together helped me discover layers of both sweetness and beauty as well as pain and grief in deeply held secrets and personal narratives. Elisa gave me tools of new language and somatic practices for alchemizing all of it into healing. I am profoundly grateful for this magic she invited me into.”
Salomé, Dance and Movement Artist
“Our time together cracked open so much inside of me and supported me in tapping back into source and into ancestral energy that flows through me, connected me to my purpose in a sentient/felt in my body way, and left me feeling empowered and alive, even (especially) after sessions where I was full of grief. Working with Elisa was one of the most potent acts of self love and care I’ve probably ever given myself.”
Emma, Nature Based Mentor and Guide
“Working with Elisa is like taking a sip of holy honey elixir that at once wraps you up in tenderness for all of the complexities of being human and liberates you into exploration of taboos, expression and wildness. Refreshing and dangerous, in a good kind of way.”
Paige, Free-birth Midwife
“Elisa's truest gift is to hold space while reflecting back all the ancestral knowing that resides within yourself, rather than offering advice or pathologies. If you've found her, I urge you to trust the finding and dive into this transformational work.”
Jane, Midwife of the Soul, Sound Alchemist, and Guide
“As someone who holds deep space for many humans on the journey of embodied awakening, it has been very challenging to me to find someone who can truly meet me in my skill and depth, while also seeing through the keyholes I haven’t yet met, and the dimensions I haven’t fully opened in my body. Elisa has that skill. Her spacious awareness, living embodiment, clear seeing and flexibility in consciousness has been invaluable as I drop deeper and deeper into the depths of my womb, touch, pleasure, flow and openness.”
Danielle, Mother, Mystic, and Healer
“Elisa is a game changer. The real deal. A true catalyst. She speaks with such power, elegance, and motherly wisdom. She has the strongest sense of knowing and clarity in another I have ever met. She will meet you wherever you are in life. She radiates truth and shows up for you relentlessly. I have been seeing her for 5 years as an incredible mentor and I simply cannot put into words ALL that Elisa is, and how she has impacted my life and so many others. She has guided me through all my intense emotions, darkness, shadows, sexuality, desire, movement, self care, creativity, and higher callings. She helped me facilitate deep internal safety and trust of the unknown when giving birth to my two sons at home. I couldn’t have created the most perfect birth of my dreams without her by my side. I feel so eternally grateful to know her and be blessed by her beautiful work. Thank you Elisa.”
