Dr. Francis Martinez N.D. & Somatic Coach

Hi, I’m Dr. Francis, She/her, first-generation Latina, child of Guatemalan immigrants, occupying Duwamish and Coast Salish land (otherwise known as Seattle), Naturopathic Doctor, counselor and somatic coach.

I specialize in helping BIPOC children of immigrants, heal the emotional, spiritual, and physical wounds of unhealed intergenerational traumas. My approach is rooted in a deep understanding of the unique struggles faced by daughters of immigrants; anxiety, negative self-talk, self-doubt, unhappiness, perfectionism and unhealthy relationships; and combining evidence-based practices with a holistic, intuitive connection to the body and mind. Using a blend of modalities—including meditation, breath-work, nervous system regulation, somatic therapy, botanical medicine, and nutrition—I guide my clients on a journey to uncover the root causes of anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, and negative self-talk.

I am a Naturopathic Doctor that has knowledge how your body works based on a anatomy and physiological level, a counselor that focuses on your values, understanding yourself, who you want to become and a somatic coach who reconnects your body’s wisdom to get your brain and body back on the same page using somatics.

Together, we’ll explore how to connect more deeply with your body and mind, so you can learn to respond to life’s challenges with intention and resilience.
