Through Somatic Experiencing and End-of-Life Doula work, I walk alongside you — whether you’re carrying old wounds, facing a major change, or sitting with someone through the end of their life.
Hi — I’m Nancy Berlove. I help people in Rochester, NY and online navigate trauma, loss, and life’s biggest transitions through Somatic Experiencing and End-of-Life Doula work.
Whether you’re carrying old wounds, facing a major change, preparing for the end of your own life, or sitting with someone you love through the end of theirs — I’m here to walk alongside you.
My approach is gentle, body-centered, and deeply human. We go at your pace.
Each path is different. Whether you’re healing from trauma or navigating the end of life, I offer a steady, compassionate presence.
A gentle, body-centered approach to healing trauma and chronic stress — working with the nervous system to release what the body holds onto.

Learn more →My work is slow, gentle, and non-prescriptive. I believe healing happens in relationship — between you and your own body, between you and another person, between you and what’s coming next.
No rushing, no pushing. Sessions unfold with your nervous system’s natural wisdom as the guide.
Somatic work listens to what the body holds — sensation, movement, breath — not just what the mind remembers.
I don’t have a script. I show up fully, follow your lead, and trust the process.
