Got This Voice Coaching
Learning to express yourself from the inside out.
Our body is our instrument for living; our voice is an expression of this instrument. Everything that happens in our minds and in our bodies is also expressing itself in our voice, in our capacity and agency to express ourselves and communicate. Throughout life, we all experience traumas, some big and some small. These experiences can impact our body's natural ability to express life with freedom, fluidity and ease. Got This Voice Coaching offers space to explore our patterns, from the inside out, with playfulness, curiosity and courage.
Voice Movement Therapy
Voice Movement Therapy (VMT) is an expressive arts therapy that centers voice and vocalization as the main tools of self-reflection and learning. VMT weaves somatic awareness and the creative process through a therapeutic lens. What does that mean? It means that everything we need is right here, already communicating to us in our minds and in our bodies, our practice is to learn how to listen.
​
In a 60-minute session, clients practice getting to know and befriending what's already here. We do this deep listening through a variety of awareness-based practices: dialogue, guided meditation, breathwork, voicework, movement, storytelling, active imagination or drawing. In VMT we develop a relationship with our patterns and stuck places through curiosity and compassion. Clients are invited to explore from the inside out. There is no "experience" necessary, just a willingness to show up and be curious.
Sessions are done on Zoom or in person. For more information, sign up for an introductory twenty-minute call below.
Kiran, Student/MGMC
Working with Denise and Muslim Girls Making Change (MGMC) is without a doubt, one of the most transformative experiences in my life. I learned about community, vulnerability, care, voice, breath, introspection, expression, and love. Denise encouraged me out of my comfort zone in the most caring way. The lessons learned with and because of Denise have stuck with me since I was 15.
Juniper, Client
I can't begin to express how wonderful it's been to work with Denise....Her kind and spacious presence shines through, and it has helped me feel safe and courageous in exploring and actually healing the underlying fears blocking my free expression. I so appreciate how we always go at a pace that works for me; Denise has a masterful way of providing options for how to move forward any time I feel stuck or shy...I now actually have fun creating and singing little ditties as I go about my day, and I'm so grateful to no longer be afraid of singing out loud.
Sarah, Client
Working with Denise helped me touch into my deepest yearnings and the root of what's holding me back. I was able to access layers that I didn't even know were there.
