ABOUT Me
Hi, I’m Anne Roley
With over 60 years of life experience and more than three decades as a licensed physical therapist, I offer a deeply integrative approach to healing and human connection. I am certified in Somatic Experiencing® and Somatic Consensus, and bring years of dedicated practice in Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and Continuum Movement. These modalities form the foundation of my work, each offering unique insights into the body, mind, and relational presence.
My lifelong commitment has been to support people in reconnecting—with their bodies, their emotions, and with one another. I believe that true healing happens through relational awareness, embodied presence, and compassionate communication.
In one-on-one sessions, groups, and workshops, I strive to create a safe and nurturing space where individuals can explore their inner experience, build deeper relationships, and foster meaningful change. My intention is always to walk alongside others on their healing journey, contributing to a more connected and compassionate world—one relationship at a time.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Loved By Our Customers
“Anne has been my go-to communication and somatic consensus coach for the last 2+ years. When I first began, it was to learn skills to improve my communication with my child. Our work quickly grew to encompass all of my core relationships… Anne more than met my enthusiasm and has been with me throughout the process as a calm and grounding mentor and guide. As a result of the last few years of work, not only have my relationships improved, but I am developing a new freedom that comes with self-compassion.”

“I am so grateful that I participated in Anne’s 8-week Somatic Consensus workshop this winter! As someone with anxiety and nervous system dysregulation, I benefited from learning both about how emotions feel within my body, and how to use those sensations to ground myself. Anne is patient, empathetic, and cultivates a wonderfully safe space to be vulnerable and authentic while tackling hard topics. Focusing on this work is such a meaningful investment in myself, and in my relationships with others.”

For someone who gives and listens so much, you deserve it”
