Trauma-Informed, Body-Based Coaching
Hi, I’m Nallely Courtney
I support people moving through life transitions to reconnect with their bodies, explore what has been carried through family and lineage, and cultivate a deeper sense of belonging within themselves.
There is another way to meet life’s transitions.
WHO I WORK WITH
I work with people moving through periods of change who feel a quiet call to come back to themselves.
You may be navigating motherhood or parenthood, grief or loss, relationship or identity shifts, ancestral questions, or simply sensing that the old ways of living and relating no longer quite fit.
My work brings together somatic awareness, relational presence, and ancestral exploration, creating space to listen to what the body, nervous system, and deeper layers of our experience may be communicating.
My Path
I come from more than one place.
I was born in Mexico City and mostly raised in Germany.
My paternal lineage is Mexican and Indigenous Mayan, carrying Spanish ancestry, while my maternal lineage is German. Growing up between these worlds shaped my relationship with belonging long before I had language for it.
Growing up between Mexico and Germany shaped my sensitivity to questions of belonging, identity, culture, and homefrom an early age. It also left me curious about the ways our histories travel with us, not only through the stories we know, but through families, relationships, bodies, and the ways we learn to belong.
My own lineage carries histories touched by migration, colonization, victim, polarization, perpetrator and empire. Over time, this became part of a deeper inquiry into what we inherit, what we carry forward, and what may be asking to be met differently.
Before stepping fully into this work, I spent several years in hospice and palliative care. Sitting with people at the threshold between life and death profoundly shaped how I understand presence.
Again and again, I learned that we do not always need to fix or rush forward. Sometimes what is needed is someone willing to stay, listen, and meet what is here.
If something in these words resonates with you, I would be honored to walk alongside you.
The work we do together unfolds slowly, through presence, trust, and a shared willingness to listen to what your body and your lineage have been carrying.
There is no rushing here.
Only the quiet possibility that when we meet what has been carried with care and honesty, new ways of belonging can begin to emerge.
Outside of Sessions
Life is often beautifully ordinary, raising two children, being with family, cooking, writing, creating, and figuring things out as we go.
Motherhood continues to be one of my deepest teachers in presence, relationship, repair, and love.
Thank you so much for being here.

Ways to Work with me
Trauma-Informed, Body-Based Coaching
Ancestral Somatic Reverence
These sessions take more time therefor I ask you to contact me on how this work unfolds.
My work brings together
Somatic awareness
We may slow down and notice what is happening in the body, sensation, impulse, emotion, and the responses of the nervous system.
Relational exploration
We may become curious about patterns that emerge in relationship, including how you connect, protect yourself, set boundaries, or respond to others.
Family & ancestral patterns
Where relevant, we may explore how family dynamics, inherited patterns, culture, and lineage have shaped the ways you experience yourself and the world.
And sometimes, we simply talk.
Not every session needs to go into the body, the past, or your lineage. The work follows what is present and what feels useful to you.

I Give Thanks
I walk this path with deep reverence for all those who have come before me, for the seen and unseen forces that shape my journey, and for the wisdom carried in my lineage.
I honor my Mexican, Mayan and German ancestry, the resilience, strength, and stories passed down through generations.
To my ancestors, healers, storytellers, dreamers, and warriors, thank you for the gifts you have left behind, for the lessons woven into my being, and for the whispers of guidance that still find me today.
To my mother and grandmothers, your strength, resilience, and wisdom live within me. You have shown me what it means to persevere, to transform, and to love fiercely. Through you, I have learned the power of healing, the depth of devotion, and the courage to walk my own path. Thank you for all that you have carried and all that you have passed on.
To my father, your love for life, the universe, and art continues to inspire me. Your curiosity, creativity, and deep connection to the world have shaped the way I see and experience life. Through you, I have learned to embrace beauty, seek meaning, and honor the endless possibilities that exist within and around us.
To my brothers, and extended family, I am grateful for the ways you have shaped me, challenged me, and supported my unfolding.
To my children and life partner, you are my greatest teachers, showing me daily how to surrender, soften, and love more deeply.
To my teachers and mentors, including Thomas Hübl, Doris Rothbauer, Dr. Ruby Gibson, Dustin diPerna, and many others who have influenced my path, thank you for sharing your wisdom, for holding space for my own growth, and for showing me how to do the same for others.
To my clients and community, I bow to your trust, your courage, and the sacred work we do together. Your willingness to show up, to heal, to remember, and to reclaim your truth is a gift I am honored to witness.
I extend my gratitude to the lands that have held me, from the soil of my birthplace in Mexico to the places I have called home. To the forests, rivers, mountains, and oceans, to the elements and directions, and to all that continues to teach me, even in silence.
May we continue to listen. May we continue to heal. May we continue to remember.
