Riding the waves of creativity, joy, and self-expression •

Sometimes the path to healing can feel heavy, lonely, & isolating…

I’m Stephen, and I know what it’s like to feel stuck—longing for change but trapped in my head, disconnected from my body and my true self. When I discovered the healing arts, everything shifted. Through movement, breath, sound, and creative expression, I found my way back to clarity, embodiment, and joy.

Now, it’s my life’s mission to share this joy with others.

That’s why I created Ocean Heart Healing—a safe haven for those ready to dive beneath the surface, release what’s holding them back, and ride the waves of creativity, lightness, and self-expression back to their most authentic selves.

Some of my favorite healing modalities are…

Everyone’s path to healing looks different. That’s why I am proud to be certified in a number of healing modalities. Each modality offers a different approach to healing and reconnecting to your joy through movement, sound, breath, or connection with nature.

The modalities that I practice include:

🌊 Kundalini Yoga – Awakening energy & clearing blocks
🌬 Somatic Breathwork – Releasing stored emotions through the body
🧘‍♂️ Yoga Nidra & Meditation – Accessing deep rest & subconscious healing
🎶 Sound Healing – Using vibration to restore balance
🏄 Surf Therapy – Learning to surrender, trust, and flow with life
💫 Trauma-Informed Coaching – Integrating healing with compassion & guidance

If you’re feeling called to reignite your spark, reconnect with joy, and express yourself fully, I’d love to walk this path with you. Let’s connect and see how we can team up.

Yoga & Meditation

Surf Therapy

Surf therapy combines the therapeutic benefits of the ocean with the mindful, embodied experience of surfing. The rhythmic movement of the ocean soothes the nervous system, while the challenge of surfing cultivates confidence, presence, and emotional release — helping you reduce stress, overcome fear, and foster deep self-connection.

Somatic Breathwork

Somatic breathwork is an active, body-based practice that uses intentional breathing patterns to release trapped emotions, clear stress, and reconnect you to your inner wisdom. Breathwork engages your nervous system to help dissolve old patterns, regulate your energy, and create lasting shifts—bringing you back into balance, presence, and freedom.

Sound Healing

Sound healing is one of my greatest passions. It is a restorative practice that uses the vibration of instruments like gongs, singing bowls, and chimes to calm the nervous system, release stored tension, and guide the body into deep relaxation. Carefully curated soundscapes, lets your mind quiet, & your body reset—creating space for emotional release, clarity, and profound healing.

Testimonials

  • "There was a lot of anger I’ve been holding onto in my heart that Stephen was so able to guide me out of with Kundalini yoga and its breath of fire. I was able to let go so much and just have fun during our sessions that were more playful at heart, but had great meanings behind them. It’s important to not be so rigid as you get older. We were able to keep and ignite our playfulness again just for the sake of it."

    Misa T.

  • "I am so glad that I was able to experience being bathed in the healing sounds of your singing bowls. It was euphoric, and stimulating. It gave me a sense of peace that I so desired under the circumstances of having found out about international unrest on the world stage. It was comforting and helped me to really know that everything will be okay."

    Matthew H.

  • "Stephen guided us through connecting with the earth and connecting with our hearts and being able to call our bodies home and that is something I am eternally grateful for. It was so needed after such an intense year for me. Very thankful for the opportunity to go and all the peace, knowledge, fun and healing that was able to take place. Stephen curated it all and was such an example of grace and community."

    Misa T.
