Welcome to Midlife Bloom Approach

Neeley created Midlife Bloom™ as more than a space for therapeutic sessions — it is a sanctuary of deep witnessing, safety, and soul nourishment. In a world where so many women navigate midlife silently while caregiving, co-parenting, working, and holding it all together. We were never meant to do this alone.

When we feel safe, seen, and supported, something profound unfolds: oxytocin — the hormone of connection — flows. Our nervous systems soften. Our hearts open. We begin to re-member ourselves through each other.

We are relational, nuanced, creative beings. Wired for belonging. Now, more than ever, we need spaces that honour that truth.

I work at the intersection of trauma, somatics, and embodied healing. My approach is grounded, integrative, and client-led, built on the belief that true transformation happens when we reconnect with the intelligence of the body and the truth it holds.

I create a space where women can be fully seen and heard, not just emotionally, but somatically and spiritually. This is not about bypassing pain or polishing over discomfort. It’s about dismantling the internal armory, meeting what’s been buried, and reclaiming the parts of self that were lost to survival.

Through mindfulness-based somatic therapy, I help retrain the nervous system, build resilience and restore coherence between mind and body. We work with anticipation, how the brain prepares for threat, and bring awareness to the ways past experiences still live in the body through sensation, posture, movement, and energy.

I trained as a Recovery Coach with CCAR and later as a Compassionate Inquiry Practitioner under trauma expert Dr. Gabor Mate. I’m an associate member of the International Practitioners of Holistic Medicine. My approach integrates somatic awareness, emotional intimacy, and psychological insight. Its not formulaic- its relational, intuitive, and rooted in presence.

My work is informed by lived experience: childhood trauma, addiction, recovery, fertility grief, IVF, hormonal dysregulation, and menopause. These aren’t just chapters in my story, they’re the foundation of my practice. I understand what it means to rebuild from the inside out.

Clients come to me to work through:

  • Addiction & recovery

  • ADHD & anxiety

  • Depression & low self-worth

  • Abuse, trauma, PMDD & PTSD

  • Fertility challenges & grief

  • Women’s health & hormonal transitions

  • Spiritual disconnection & identity loss

Specializing in the care of hormonally sensitive women who have experienced earlier stress or trauma, Neeley offers a somatic, trauma-informed pathway to release its psychological and hormonal imprint — integrating it into your sacred whole self.

Her work restores balance to the nervous system through touch, presence, and therapeutic connection, awakening wholeness from within.

This is not traditional talk therapy. It’s body-mind integration. It’s about inhabiting your life fully, with reverence radiance and regulated self trust.

✧ The Midlife Bloom™ Approach

“My trauma-informed practice is shaped by a whole-person understanding of health.”

At Midlife Bloom™, we bring together modern neuroscience, somatic wisdom, and compassionate exploration to help you tend to the roots beneath your symptoms.

Using the Compassionate Inquiry® method alongside somatic awareness, nervous system mapping, midlife psychology, and body-based therapeutic tools, I guide you to gently uncover what lies beneath your symptoms and emotional patterns with presence, and compassionate care.

My approach honours the interwoven nature of the biological, emotional, relational, and spiritual self, a philosophy grounded in what’s known as the biopsychosocial model.

This means I don’t treat symptoms in isolation, but hold space for the full ecology of your experience.

A Whole-Person Lens

Your biology and hormonal shifts.

Your emotional imprints and early attachments.

Your social and cultural landscape, including gendered expectations, intergenerational patterns, and inherited roles.

At Midlife Bloom™, I layer an integrative holistic approach anchored primarily in Compassionate Inquiry, whilst also drawing on the Polyvagal Theory and neuroception. This guides us to understand your body’s implicit cues of safety, danger, or overwhelm. I also integrate neuroendocrine awareness to support the shifting hormonal terrain of perimenopause and beyond.

Menopause is not just a hormonal event. It’s a relational and spiritual reckoning, one that often surfaces everything we had to suppress to survive.

I also draw upon the ACE framework to explore how early emotional environments shape adult health and stress response.

The ACE Model

✧ The ACE Model: A Window Into the Past

The Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Study, first conducted by the CDC and Kaiser Permanente in the 1990s, revealed a groundbreaking link between early emotional injury and adult physical, emotional, and mental health.

The study explored how 10 types of childhood adversity, from abuse and neglect to household dysfunction, significantly increase the risk of chronic illness, hormonal dysregulation, addiction, and autoimmune conditions later in life.

But this is not where your story ends.

The body, when met with safety, presence, and compassion, can rewire, release, and restore.
