Lael Katharine Keen
A life devoted to listening to the body
Lael Keen is an internationally respected teacher and practitioner whose work brings together Rolfing® Structural Integration, Somatic Experiencing®, the Bates Method of Vision, Anthroposophic Art Therapy and Biographical Counseling.
For more than six decades, Lael has studied how attention, touch, movement and relationship can restore choice where the body has learned protection.
Her teaching is grounded in clinical depth and lived experience. She works with therapists, bodyworkers and educators around the world, translating complex ideas about trauma and regulation into practices that can be felt and used.
At the center of her work is a simple conviction: healing cannot be forced. It unfolds when the nervous system is met with enough time, safety and respect.
