soul healing
Dr. Alison Kerns (she/her) is a naturopathic physician, family constellation facilitator, and somatic experiencing® practitioner passionate about creating a safe space for healing with her patients. Working together with her patients in groups and one-on-one her focus is on embodiment, empowerment, and healing ancestral and relational trauma.
She completed her medical education at Bastyr University. She received a bachelor’s degree in ecological and social geography at Miami University, focusing on earth and cultural preservation. She became a certified massage therapist at the Boulder College of Massage Therapy and a certified yoga teacher at the Shambhava School of Yoga, deepening her connection with the body, mind, spirit.
Dr. Alison completed a two-year residency and an associate position with Dietrich Klinghardt, MD, PhD at the Sophia Health Institute focused on complex chronic illness, therapeutic injections, and psychokinesiology (PK)/emotional trauma work. Through this work she discovered sustainable healing came from therapeutic regulation of her patients’ complex trauma.

She also became a somatic experiencing® practitioner with the Somatic Experiencing® Trauma Institute. She has advanced education in homeopathy from the New England School of Homeopathy, hypnotherapy training with Mary Lee LaBay and advanced yoga training with Shiva Rea and Seane Corn.

When not working, Dr. Alison has a love for dancing, yoga, drawing, painting, laughing, running and hiking, cooking, traveling, and enjoying all that this world has to offer with her husband and her two kids.
