Welcome!

I’m Gillian Hailey Parcells

integrative Somatic Therapy Practitioner &
Embodied culture and Leadership Coach & Consultant

Despite and amidst the inevitable changes and challenges in life, we are biologically designed and inclined to heal, grow, adapt, and thrive - individually and collectively.

I specialize in working with wildly ambitious, deeply (or secretly) sensitive, and purpose-driven people, parents, partners, and professionals who are motivated and inspired to make meaningful change and live into their full potential.

Whether you are seeking support for personal or professional healing or growth, I provide empathetic and empowering support and guidance to help you gain clarity, cultivate inner resilience, and develop skills to live, love, and lead with confidence, alignment, and authenticity.


my approach

integrative

An integrative therapeutic approach recognizes the interconnectedness of mental, emotional, and physical health. By utilizing a combination of complementary modalities, it tailors the healing process to align with your unique needs. This holistic perspective embraces the belief that effective wellness does not stem from a single method but rather from a harmonious blend of modalities that honor the unique needs, strengths, goals, and resonance of each individual.
  

holistic

A holistic approach recognizes and honors you as a complete individual, considering the full context of your life. This method expands our awareness beyond just the challenges or symptoms you may present. It encompasses an understanding of how your life experiences, environments, and relationships intertwine and influence each other. By acknowledging the interconnected nature of these elements, we can better understand their impact on your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing. This perspective emphasizes that distress or imbalance in one area can significantly affect others, promoting a comprehensive path to health and healing.
  

nature-based

A nature-based approach emphasizes the interconnectedness of human beings with the natural world, recognizing that our biology is intrinsically connected and related to the natural world. This approach acknowledges the generative cycles, seasons, and rhythms present in nature that mirror our own processes of healing, growth, and transformation. Through a nature based approach we can better understand and harness the intelligence of our biology, physiology, and psychology to support our ability to heal, grow, adapt, flourish, and thrive even amidst the inevitable changes and challenges of life.

mind+body

A mindbody approach integrates the mental and physical aspects of your being, recognizing that thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations are interconnected. This approach emphasizes mindfulness and awareness, inviting individuals to explore their inner experiences and listen the deeper insights of their body and being. This exploration can lead to greater self-awareness and clarity regarding core values, needs, and desires. Ultimately, a mindbody approach fosters healing, self-discovery, authentic expression, and personal growth, enhancing overall well-being and self-realization.

relational

A relational approach to therapy emphasizes the importance of relationships and interactions as key components of the healing journey. This method fosters a corrective relational experience within a safe environment, facilitating deeper insights into your relationship with yourself and others. It involves exploring relational patterns, habits, and wounds, allowing you to recognize how these elements influence your self-perception and your connections with others and the broader world. Through this exploration, individuals can gain clarity, heal past traumas, and develop healthier, more authentic relationships with themselves and others.

trauma informed

A trauma-informed approach recognizes that stress and trauma are inherent aspects of the human experience. It emphasizes the importance of understanding the individual’s history and the ways it shapes their physical, emotional, and mental well-being. This approach involves creating a safe and supportive environment, fostering trust, and empowering individuals in their humanness and healing journey. By honoring the root causes as they are revealed, we support a pace and process of healing that nurtures resilience and promotes our potential to transform the lingering effects of stress and trauma into opportunities for growth and healing.

“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go {and grow} through. Where people fail is that they {consciously or unconsciously} elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death.”
