My journey began with my Zen Buddhist training at a monastery in Hawaii as a young adult. This training showed me that careful attention to the body and breath can be a gateway into a deeper understanding of oneself. I pursued an extensive study and practice of mind-body-spirit work using bodywork and somatic modalities to help refine my understanding of how embodiment can lead us toward a more complete and fulfilling sense of ourselves. In 2012, I founded Red Beard Somatic Therapy, where I began incorporating neurobiological work to create an aligned, comprehensive approach to supporting clients who experienced different facets of trauma in their lives. In 2024, I co-founded Neurogenic Integration, an international education company focused on neurogenic tremoring, TRE, and related somatic approaches. The different modalities I use help clients understand their internal selves, identify their inner landscape, and better understand why they feel, act, and react the way they do. This supports you in creating a more harmonious relationship with your inner self and allows you to grow, heal, and find balance in your life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/93a19568-b4b0-4d6e-8bf3-5f759f2e476c/icon5.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/9a71fd7a-4afe-4fce-bfc2-b6a29b94b0ff/icon2.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/b2cfe61d-a7be-4a51-a6c3-30c2a84b6c3a/icon4.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/52a819cc-69ac-4309-969e-1a3d34944ad7/icon3.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/df7a8ce6-8ae3-4e2c-b990-41c3752df154/icon1.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/ab39e4c1-ae18-4a79-adfb-e61eccd73154/icon6.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/6b4ca4d1-90a7-425d-8752-5aca5bc4f617/Artboard+16+copy.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/ab39e4c1-ae18-4a79-adfb-e61eccd73154/icon6.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.alexgreene.com/services daily 0.75 2026-03-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/1663072967865-LCQYKIJO6CI3GNDMR0T2/cat-han-URi_yR9qtgs-unsplash.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/1666255074588-DDT28V4JFNQUHVPIBR2S/Artboard%2B14.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/1667580585550-0KG5F4HQ61679HXTCCZN/kaboompics_Ceramic%2Blamp%2Bstyled%2Bon%2Ba%2Bcommode%2Bwith%2Ba%2Bstone%2Btop%2B%25281%2529.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/994f58d2-d77c-44e8-acc5-aea027f5b839/priscilla-du-preez-7ilpPBxTavU-unsplash.jpg Services Somatic coaching is a transformational process that empowers individuals to more effectively function, work more skillfully with others, and embody new, generative ways of being. My approach to coaching is both cognitive and somatic. By working with the mind, body and nervous system we will work towards a deeper level of self-awareness to help you understand what you want in life. I incorporate multiple modalities that will help support you with a whole spectrum of body-mind and neurobiological tools. Somatic coaching helps you: • Clarify your purpose and commitments • Explore your unique nervous system responses and patterns • Communicate more skillfully with others • Embody new, generative ways of being • Transform patterns of stress, tension and habitual thinking Ways we work together: • 1:1 Online Session (50 Minutes @ $200) • Individualized Somatic Coaching Program https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/e6cec3ed-7cbb-43c1-89ad-613169254c59/shutterstock_therapy_hands.jpg Services Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a bottom-up neurobiological approach for resolving trauma symptoms and relieving chronic stress. It utilizes conversation and felt-sense awareness to highlight and track body sensations and nervous system activation rhythms. This careful investigation will help the autonomic nervous system resolve stressors and traumatic imprints and move to a state of greater relaxation and well-being. Recent neuroscience and traumatological research have shown that the “imprint“ of unresolved trauma has less to do with the narrative memories themselves and much more to do with the bodily autonomic states connected to those events. Somatic Experiencing helps you: • Discharge stress, tension and trauma patterns to support nervous system regulation • Resolve Fight/Flight/Freeze responses in the nervous system • Create a deeper awareness of body sensations and emotions • Release traumatic shock and transform the effects of trauma • Heal the wounds of emotional and early developmental trauma Ways we work together: • 1:1 Online Sessions (50 Minutes @ $200) • Individualized Somatic Coaching Program https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/991ce296-728c-4904-8165-f94f5fef1d1c/pexels-michael-burrows-7129059.jpg Services Internal family systems (IFS) is an evidence-based, non-pathologizing approach that identifies and heals the ‘parts’ of you that need attending to. As humans, we hold multiple 'parts' that relate to our experiences, emotions, sensations, thoughts and behaviors which make up our inner world. By clarifying your connection to Self-energy we can restore harmony to your inner system. As an IFS practitioner, I help you connect with your parts, listen to their concerns, and support whatever healing, integration, or transformation they may need. Over time you will learn to live in a more Self-led and intentional way that is aligned with your internal system. IFS helps you: • Deepen your understanding of your complex inner world • Get to know your Protectors and how they support you • Cultivate self-compassion and appreciation of your system • Support collaboration instead of polarization among your parts • Witness and Unburden wounded parts Ways we work together: • 1:1 Online Sessions (50 Minutes @ $200) • Individualized Somatic Coaching Program https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/826b4d87-9b0b-49ec-a09b-0e2eca3a6726/shutterstock_TRE_2.jpg Services - What is TRE? It’s a set of six exercises that help to release deep tension from the body by evoking a self-controlled muscular shaking process in the body called neurogenic muscle tremors. The uniqueness of this technique is that this shaking originates deep in the core of the body of the psoas muscles. These gentle tremors reverberate outwards along the spine, releasing tension from the sacrum to the cranium. TRE is a mechanism for releasing deep muscular stress and tension held within the body. More specifically, it is a physical practice that activates a natural reflex mechanism of vibration deep within the body. This sustained vibration allows the body and the nervous system to be calmed, restoring a grounded sense within the body. What is the idea behind TRE? TRE is based within the assumption that the experience of everyday stress and prior trauma express themselves in our body in BOTH psychological and physical ways. A few physical manifestations of stress include muscle tension, soreness, pain, headaches, difficulty sleeping, diarrhea, or constipation. TRE allows one to release some amount of everyday stress and built-up trauma in the body through physical exercise that can be practiced in the home. Tension release in the body often leads the brain to register a reduction in the fight or flight signals, contributing to decreased stress and pain. Will TRE help me? TRE is best seen as a tool for self-care, complementary to other wellness practices. Once learned through a trained practitioner, TRE can be used as needed, throughout one’s life, as a tool applied at home. Reported benefits of the practice include, but are not limited to, decreased anxiety, reduced symptoms of PTSD, improved relationships, more energy, better sleep, increased flexibility, healing of old injuries, less workplace stress, and greater emotional resiliency. Many patients report a restored sense of well-being. Although TRE exercises may appear easy, the most significant value and safety in learning TRE is with a Certified TRE Provider.

It features specially filtered music that stimulates the vagus nerve in order to re-pattern the neural networks and improve regulation of the autonomic nervous system for lasting change. This helps bring the nervous system out of a defensive (fight/flight/freeze) pattern into a more well-regulated and socially-engaged state. Working together, you will listen to a series of filtered music delivered through over-the-ear headphones. We will watch for changes in sensation in your body and nervous system to help titrate each listening session to your system’s needs. SSP helps you: • Interrupt chronic defensive patterns (Fight/Flight/Freeze) • Reduce auditory hypersensitivity • Train your middle ear muscles to attune to cues of safety • Restore your capacity for connection and social engagement • Discover more calm and ease in your nervous system Ways we work together: • $350 for Independent at Home Listening • $200 for Facilitated Listening sessions • Individualized Somatic Coaching Program https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/4b67e7ac-0b42-47e4-a348-fb0a3b47ce4f/pexels-mark-arron-smith-2168356.jpg Services - What is TRE?

It rests on the belief that we are hardwired for connection and healing. My approach to attachment coaching combines the somatic awareness skills from Somatic Experiencing with an additional focus on how our attachment or relational history informs our current patterns of connection. In our work, we will develop strategies and practical applications to effectively work with and heal your early attachment wounds. DARe helps you: • Understand how your early childhood experiences impact your adult relationships • Resolve early attachment wounds • Communicate with more clarity and authenticity • Expand your capacity for connection in your current relationships • Learn practices that help promote Secure Attachment Ways we work together: • 1:1 Online Sessions (50 Minutes @ $200.00) • Individualized Somatic Coaching Program https://www.alexgreene.com/testimonials-1 daily 0.75 2022-12-07 https://www.alexgreene.com/testimonials-1/testimonial-3 monthly 0.5 2022-10-18 https://www.alexgreene.com/testimonials-1/testimonial-2-rdklh monthly 0.5 2022-10-18 https://www.alexgreene.com/testimonials-1/testimonial-2 monthly 0.5 2022-10-18 https://www.alexgreene.com/resource daily 0.75 2022-12-12 https://www.alexgreene.com/resource/post-1 monthly 0.5 2023-04-13 https://www.alexgreene.com/resource/post-2 monthly 0.5 2023-04-28 https://www.alexgreene.com/resource/post-3 monthly 0.5 2023-05-05 https://www.alexgreene.com/about daily 0.75 2026-03-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/1666110123161-EFCTYOB7NKE2KGXYLQH0/Alex+15bw.jpg About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/1663067691613-XWWS0BRO2338FX4SWOW0/Artboard+14.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/1666259150179-K18RHWC8RPA1STY6F73Q/pexels-karolina-grabowska-4207776.jpg About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/1666255074588-DDT28V4JFNQUHVPIBR2S/Artboard%2B14.jpg About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/e6a05c23-e8cb-4fb1-8852-08862cd91743/greene-0650-Edit.jpg About - Hello, I’m Alex Greene As a bodyworker, somatic coach, educator, and nervous system specialist (and also a Zen priest), my passion is working with others to discover the wisdom and capacity that can be found by attending to one’s own embodied self. In my early twenties, I spent three years living at a Zen monastery in Honolulu, Hawaii. When I began my formal training I received the instruction that “the meaning of life can be discovered through the refinement of breath and posture.” In the 21 years since, I have been on a mission to continually deepen my understanding of what this means, and how to support others to follow a similar path of self-discovery. I use a variety of tools with my clients drawing from my diverse training in coaching, meditation, nervous system regulation, movement education, energy medicine, and more. My goal is to empower people to discover their own capacity for healing, grounded embodiment, emotional self-understanding, and clear communication. I have been fortunate to live and travel in many parts of the world, and I’m pleased to support people internationally through the recent acceleration of virtual work. I currently live in Boulder, Colorado at the edge of the Rocky Mountains with my wife Vanessa Allard (also a somatic coach!), and our two daughters. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/addb4e2c-6d46-4fd9-a596-b40b20eaa441/meric-dagli-7d_cEOLPd78-unsplash.jpg About As I progressed in full bodywork, the innate connection between the body, mind, and nervous system, especially when dealing with trauma, had to be supported. This led to my exploration and training in neurobiological work, exploring and learning about the connection between psycho-emotional trauma and bodywork. As people, we are connected through our mind, body, spirit, and nervous system, so treating our entire system is key to healing. This led to my work and certification in TRE, Somatic Experience, Safe and Sound Protocol, NARM -NeuroAffective Relational Model, and Internal Family Systems practitioner, allowing me to provide a nervous system-oriented approach to assist clients in overcoming trauma and promote psycho-emotional growth and well-being. In 2012, I founded Red Beard Somatic Therapy. I began incorporating neurobiological work to create an aligned, comprehensive process, to support people experiencing different forms of trauma, creating a person-centered approach and using unique modalities to provide a mind and body sense of connection and awareness. My family and I moved to Boulder, Colorado, in the last couple of years. I continued my full practice using the multi modalities as a somatic coach, practitioner, and therapist. I am committed to a comprehensive approach that supports individuals to heal and change by utilizing the different modalities that apply to their personal needs. By weaving these intertwined treatments together, I support you through this unique process by creating a whole body, mind, and systematic approach to help you connect and progress through this therapeutic relationship. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/fec415bb-0820-47a6-b09e-c9baf028b612/debby-hudson-NiQjjEnfS-c-unsplash.jpg About - my approach I work with a collection of somatic modalities to support healing, growth, and self-discovery. Somatic Experiencing, TRE, and Safe & Sound Protocol can promote greater nervous system awareness and regulation. Internal Family Systems, NARM, and DARe relational coaching can help foster insight and clarity in our inner and outer relationships. Somatic movement education can help us extend our awareness and embodiment into functional applications in life. Our overarching coaching container offers a structured and supportive place to integrate these approaches. https://www.alexgreene.com/how-we-can-work-together daily 0.75 2026-02-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/1666258350877-5YAV80RFVFRJB84PHY2B/bree-anne-CivV8ItjHdg-unsplash.jpg How we can work together https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/1663072967865-LCQYKIJO6CI3GNDMR0T2/cat-han-URi_yR9qtgs-unsplash.jpg How we can work together https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/1666255074588-DDT28V4JFNQUHVPIBR2S/Artboard%2B14.jpg How we can work together https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/c685784f-6c8c-4df5-a5a6-3f8b3491d698/annie-spratt-GMSqa8vdx84-unsplash.jpg How we can work together - 1:1 Somatic Integration Program 3-Month Program Partner with me on specific goals and processes over 3 months • 1 x Planning Session (90-minutes) • 9 x Follow-up Sessions including a combination of 1:1 Somatic Experiencing, Safe & Sound Protocol, and TRE (60-minutes) • Personalized plan to support nervous system health & to help you meet your goals, including specifically chosen somatic practices, curated routines, weekly action plans, accountability checks, and support between sessions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/fc34a0a0-50fe-45e3-9180-29e614eb04e7/annie-spratt-rtl8Os9mGA4-unsplash.jpg How we can work together - 1:1 Somatic Internal Family Systems Program 3-month program Learn how to apply the IFS model to your internal system. • 1 x Planning Session (90-minutes) • 9 x Follow-up Sessions including a combination of 1:1 IFS and Internal Family Systems (60-minutes) • Personalized plan to support nervous system health & to help you meet your goals, including specifically chosen somatic practices, curated routines, weekly action plans, accountability checks, and support between sessions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/632038ce58aadc20ddf20dec/025d4942-5f55-4c6d-8862-c46fce11ddd2/pexels-cup-of-couple-7657406+%281%29.jpg How we can work together - Customized Programs We can work together to design your custom program, including any of the following: • Somatic Experiencing • Internal Family Systems • TRE – Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises • Safe & Sound Protocol • DARe attachment work • Brainspotting • Feldenkrais Method • Meditation/breathwork Personal plan to support your nervous system health and to help you meet your goals, including specifically chosen somatic practices, curated routines, weekly action plans, accountability checks, and support between sessions.
