Kelly Foss
Founder and Somatics Practitioner, Universe Within
Meet Kelly, a Somatics Practitioner and Certified Massage Therapist with expertise in CranioSacral Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, and Intuitive Bodywork. Her business, Universe Within, is based in Joshua Tree, and she blends Eastern and Western therapeutic modalities to help clients restore deep connections to their bodies. Drawing on attachment theory, polyvagal theory, and Five Element Theory, Kelly integrates neurobiology and psychology with holistic practices to support healing on physical, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual levels. Her personal journey through two life-changing injuries led her to this transformative work, and she invites clients to explore new possibilities through somatic healing.
Ben Johnson
Founder & Director of Experiences
As a Colorado native and wilderness guide for 26 years, Ben is no stranger to encountering the unknown and finding ways to create a sense of safety and mental preparedness. He grew up exploring the vast open spaces of Colorado and continued that passion as a rock climbing and mountain bike guide, helping others push their boundaries. Some of the most profound and enlightening experiences of his lifetime have come from experiences in the outdoors as well as the inner landscape through the power of non-ordinary states of consciousness. He believes it’s essential to understand the ways in which the wilderness and non-ordinary states are interrelated. He would love to support you in being brave to confront the obstacles in your life to create the change you’re capable of.
