Somatic Facilitation
for Trauma Healing, Nervous System Regulation & Spiritual Growth
Based at Vikara Center in Rosarito, Mexico|Online Sessions Available
I’m Josie Kramer, a somatic facilitator and co-founder of Vikara Center. My work combines body-based healing with contemplative practice to help people come home to themselves.
If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply longing for something more, you're not alone.
For more than two decades, I’ve been devoted to the study and practice of healing, spiritual growth, and whole-person wellness. My work weaves together Transpersonal Psychology, Somatic Experiencing®, nervous system regulation, meditation, yoga, bodywork, holistic health, and psychedelic-assisted healing to support greater authenticity, resilience, and purpose.
Whether you're healing from trauma, navigating a life transition, feeling overwhelmed or disconnected, deepening your spiritual path, or seeking greater meaning and connection, I offer a compassionate, trauma-informed space where healing can unfold naturally and wholeness can emerge.
Whether through private sessions, community classes, or transformational retreats, it's an honor to walk alongside you as you come home to yourself and create lasting change.
