The arts (music, visual, and performing arts) aren’t nice-to-haves; they’re a necessity for overcoming a variety of challenges. At Resonate! we offer healing services focused on helping you restore. Select one of the services below.
Sound Healing and
Sound Baths
Sound Healing
Sound healing is an ancient form of healing that uses the vibrations of hand-hammered Tibetan metal bowls to produce frequencies and vibrations that are not only soothing and relaxing but have the power to vibrationally change our bodies, even at a cellular level. Our bodies are 80% water. Watch the way a bowl of water or a pond vibrates with synchronicity and pattern when it is disturbed. We believe that singing bowls do the same within our bodies! Cells can be shifted. Patterns can be broken up. New and healthier responses to stimuli can develop. There are many types of sound healing now being practiced, many using crystal bowls or mass-produced metal bowls.
Sound Baths
Sound Baths are common these days, mostly for larger groups and held at Yoga or Meditation Studios. These are a wonderful introduction to sound healing, but the technique we use is an ancient and specific practice taught at an internationally acclaimed school in Boulder, Colorado, by Suren Shrestha, a world renown sound healer and practitioner from Nepal.

Music Therapy and Expressive Arts Therapy
Music Therapy
Music therapy is a therapeutic approach that uses music within a therapeutic relationship to help individuals achieve their individualized goals, using techniques such as listening to, moving to, reflecting on, and creating music under the guidance of a *trained music therapist*.
*Tami has been a board-certified, registered music therapist since 1985. The credential has changed. The training and years of experience have not,. and have only added to her skill and intuition.
People who benefit from music therapy include:
Expressive Arts Therapy
Expressive arts therapy uses various art forms, like art, music, dance, drama, collage, sculpting, and writing, to help individuals express emotions, explore experiences, and promote healing and growth. Often, the act of creating and being in “the zone” that happens when we are fully immersed in a creation unlocks deep feelings and memories that would otherwise stay buried. We often see the symbolism and representation of these difficult emotions within our creation once it is complete. Most expressive arts therapy relies on our subconscious to lead the way.
Somatic Coaching, Body, and Breathwork
Somatic Coaching
Somatic coaching is a holistic, body-first methodology that integrates physical sensations, posture, and nervous system regulation with traditional goal-oriented coaching. Derived from the Greek word soma (meaning “the living body”), it operates on the foundational principle that long-held behavioral habits, stress responses, and emotional blocks are physically stored within your body tissues and posture. Instead of treating personal growth solely as a cognitive exercise, somatic practitioners focus on regulating the nervous system first to automatically clarify and shift a client’s thinking patterns
Cranial Sacral Massage
Cranial Sacral Massage is a gentle way of reducing pain in the head, neck, shoulders, spine, and sacrum. Although it’s like a deep tissue massage, you’re fully clothed. Many people seek this for migraine and pain around the head, neck, shoulders, and spine.
Low Level Laser Therapy
Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), also known as photobiomodulation, is a non-invasive medical treatment that uses low-intensity light to stimulate cellular healing, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain. Unlike high-powered surgical lasers, LLLT does not generate significant heat or cut tissue. Instead, it utilizes specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to penetrate skin layers and interact directly with cells.
Certified Breathwork
Breathwork is the intentional, conscious manipulation of your breathing pattern to improve physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Unlike normal, automatic breathing, breathwork involves active, structured changes to your breath’s speed, depth, and rhythm to shift your body’s physiological and psychological state. It shifts your body by changing how you breathe, directly controlling your nervous system and blood chemistry. Slowing the breath stimulates the vagus nerve, lowering blood pressure and switching the body into a relaxed “rest and digest” state. Hyperventilating, or fast breathing intentionally stresses the body, triggering a temporary “fight or flight” response that releases adrenaline and emotional tension. Lastly, altering carbon dioxide levels in your blood shifts your blood pH, which can create tingling sensations, deep emotional releases, or altered states of consciousness.
Trauma Informed Yoga
Explore healing through creativity in guided art-infused counseling sessions. Using visual arts as a language of expression, trauma-informed yoga is an approach to yoga that prioritizes creating a safe and supportive environment for individuals with trauma histories, recognizing that trauma can affect both the mind and body. It differs from traditional yoga classes by being mindful of potential triggers and offering modifications and breaks, allowing participants to practice at their own pace. Key components often include safety, choice, mindfulness, collaboration, sensory awareness, trauma-informed language that is sensitive to triggers and promotes safety and comfort.
Energy Healing
SRI: Somato Respiratory Integration
SRI is designed to focus attention, gentle breath, movement, and touch. It’s an education about the body, it’s rhythms, and its inner wisdom. Focus on breath, and the inner workings of the body reconnect the brain with the body’s experience of vibration, structure, and energy.
Matrix Energetics
Matrix Energetics was founded by Dr. Richard Bartlett D.C., N.D. It’s a complete system for transforming energy and consciousness that produces noticeable, verifiable changes.
Tai Yi
Tai Yi (太一) is a foundational Chinese concept translating to the “Great One” or “Supreme Unity” that represents the primordial source of all life, energy, and cosmic order. It is a very ancient and specific type of Chinese medicine.
In modern alternative medicine, Life Energy Flow Tai Yi is practiced as an ancient, hands-on modality that works with the human body’s meridian system—predating modern acupuncture and using no needles. The Core Philosophy is that Tai Yi is the original, primitive Qi (life force) state in the universe. When a person experiences physical injury, chronic stress, or deep emotional trauma, the “energetic rivers” (meridians) in the body become blocked or stagnant. A practitioner uses touch to send high-frequency resonant energy into specific points to unblock these channels. There are more than 4,000 highly specific treatment patterns. A practitioner applies a precise sequence of point contacts tailored to specific modern ailments, such as “Brain Stress” (balancing cortisol) or clearing targeted emotional blockages like anger and fear. Thus, Tai Yi is used in energy healing, but is also used in “alternative talk therapy” when a person is particularly “stuck” with a particular issue.
Alternative Counseling
Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a form of complementary medicine that uses hypnosis—a state of deeply focused attention and increased suggestibility—to help individuals make positive behavioral, emotional, or cognitive changes. Led by a trained therapist, it bypasses the critical, analytical mind to work directly with the subconscious mind, where your deepest habits, memories, and automatic emotional responses are stored.
Art Infused Counseling
Art-infused counseling is slightly different than traditional Art Therapy, which is ONLY practiced by a board certified Art Therapist. But, “art infused counseling” uses creative expression as a primary vehicle to communicate experiences that are often too complex, painful, or deeply buried for traditional verbal speech. It bypasses “talk therapy” and uses art to uncover and express subconscious thoughts.
Men’s Work
“Men’s work” refers to dedicated spaces—such as peer support groups, workshops, or specialized counseling—where men gather to examine their conditioning, process emotions, and redefine masculinity on their own terms.
Rather than a clinical modality itself, it is a supportive movement designed to break down the isolation and emotional restriction that many men experience due to societal expectations.
Workshops, Support Groups, and Retreats
Workshops
Our dynamic workshops blend sound healing with the expressive arts—offering a playground for creativity, self-inquiry, and collective resonance. Whether exploring movement, voice, or visual art, participants are encouraged to engage deeply with their inner world in a supportive group setting.
Support Groups
Support groups are not necessarily “therapy.” They are intended to bring together groups of people around a particular issue or stage in life. Why? Because we are wired to heal in community, not by ourselves. For thousands of years, our ancestors did not have the anxiety, depression, medications, individual therapy, surgical techniques and massive (sometimes overwhelming) resources that we have today. But, life was simpler. And they knew they could not survive alone. By being in community with one another we learn that we are NOT alone. We learn that others experience the same traumas, emotions, coping mechanisms, anxiety, addiction and more. And we gain strength in each other!
