You should not have to pay someone to love you like this. You should not have to make an appointment to be held. You should not have to find this kind of care on a website.
The kind of attention, presence, and protection I offer should have been yours from the beginning—freely given by those who raised you, without asking, without earning, without cost.
I do not take that lightly.
I know what it takes to even arrive here—to say, “I need help. I want something different. I’m ready to be seen.”
That kind of vulnerability is sacred. And it deserves to be met with something deeper than professionalism. It deserves to be met with love, reverence, and repair. And someone who deeply knows, like I do, the ache of feeling disconnected, and the shame of what brought you to this moment where we meet.
So no, this isn’t therapy as usual.
This is nervous system work as soul retrieval.
This is parenting work as lineage repair.
This is coaching as an act of devotion—to you, to your inner child, to the future we’re building.
And here’s what else is true:
This work doesn’t drain me.
It feeds me.
It widens my heart every time I get to love someone through this kind of return.
You don’t have to hold it all anymore.
You get to be held, too.
Hi! I'm Ann Odom--
an intuitive healer, somatic guide, and cyclebreaking mama here to help women return to the one relationship that changes everything: the one they have with their body, their nervous system, and their inner child.
I wasn’t always this version of myself.
For the past 20 years, I have been in the mental health field of children, families and trauma. Doing clinical child therapy, becoming deeply intimate with generational and attachment trauma working in the Child Protective System, and working with adoptive non-profits in Haiti. I have sat with countless families in the depths of trauma, grief, and generational pain. I knew the science. I had the scripts. I could name every nervous system state and give you a regulation tool for each one.
But even with all that training, something broke open when I became a mother.
Everything I knew professionally—the brain science, the attachment theory, the trauma protocols—suddenly collided with everything still stored in my body.
Old wounds. Implicit memory. Nervous system patterns that no script could override.
I was perfectly poised to pull these threads together.
And I saw what the traditional model couldn’t reach:
Parents—especially mothers—trying so hard to “do it right,” and still feeling alone, ashamed, and overwhelmed.
I watched my own nervous system tighten under the weight of all I “should’ve” known.
I could explain my trauma. But I couldn’t feel free.
So I stepped out of the system.
I chose to release my clinical license and began working in the way I always knew I was meant to: intuitively, relationally, and in full alignment with the body’s truth.
What is a Reprogrammed Parent?
Authenticity Above All
The Reprogrammed Parent has learned what they always needed and didn’t receive, has become the one to provide that to themselves moment to moment, and through this process has learned what their child needs to thrive. They do this work in front of their child, learning how to be safe in a feeling, and they are messing up, repairing, forgiving themselves, and creating a culture in their home where we ALL get to be human.
Wounds to Wisdom
The Reprogrammed Parent understands that the ways they are struggling in their present life show where they are wounded, not bad. They understand the basics of how the protective nervous system works, and how socially normalized parenting practices, being raised by emotionally immature parents, and not having their emotions accepted and supported has caused their nervous system to conflate their current experiences (including their child’s big feelings, healthy boundary-testing, and even playfulness and excitement) as a threat to their system.
In this Age of Information, there is a disconnect between what the brain can learn and what the body remembers. The Reprogrammed Parent understands this, knows how to proactively give their own nervous system messages of safety and support, knows how to attune to their emotions and move them through their body, and has integrated and healed their inner child so that they can access more play, presence, connection, and vitality.
