You Deserve to Be Happy.

To Live a Life You Love.

To Be Seen, Heard, Held and Honored Just as You Are.

Which Means The Way We Think About Skincare Needs An Upgrade

Because skincare isn’t just about the products you use.

It’s about how you feel living in your skin as a midlife woman.

It’s about understanding what’s going on beneath the surface that’s driving the anxiety, overwhelm, and exhaustion that’s showing up on your complexion as dark circles, wrinkles and rashes.

It’s about learning how to tap into your body’s wisdom to find comfort in your skin.

Somatic Skincare is the only program combining Skin Science, Somatics and Breathwork for a mind-body healing experience that teaches you exactly how to do that.

There’s never been a better time to be a woman in midlife.

We’re no longer “disappeared” after hitting 35, you can’t scroll Instagram without seeing a Gen-X celeb coming out of the closet about “menopause,” and we have more knowledge at our fingertips than we know how to handle.

The bad news?

Repressed emotions, unmanaged stress and trying to be the person everyone else wants us to be is still the big ol’ elephant in the room that many of us Botox and slap fake lashes on. 

Is it any wonder we end up feeling like sh*t and our skin’s a disaster?

Women don’t need to be “fixed” or “anti-aged.”

You need the time, space, permission, and support to simply be yourself.

And that’s exactly what you’ll get inside Somatic Skincare.

My mission:

To help women exfoliate their anxiety, exhaustion and overwhelm, so they can have better relationships with their partners, families and themselves, to live lives based in somatic or bodily connection, with regulation in their nervous system, and love for who they are in the skin they’re in as a midlife woman.

Inside Somatic Skincare, you are taught the skills, tools, and techniques to retrain your brain to believe new things, and regulate your nervous system so you can take back control of your life feeling more joy, ease and peace.

All while being given the time, space, guidance and community support you need to simply be yourself.

You could be living your best midlife today.

No matter how you feel right now…

What you’re struggling with, or what you believe you’re worthy of, you could finally stop treating yourself like the enemy and have your own back.

If you feel stuck in repetitive habits & patterns, overwhelmed, hold stress in your body, and feel irritable, frustrated, or exhausted…

If you’ve been trying to cobble together all you’ve learned from podcasts, self-help books, wellness retreats, therapy, thought work, manifesting, affirmations, dermatology, naturopaths, healers, and acupuncturists on your own, without a framework or medical expert to guide you…

If you’ve never had the chance to connect with brave, like-minded women who will help you commit to creating positive change…

You need an expert guide who has been where you are. I’m the gal for you AND…

Somatic Skincare is the safe and supportive space you need to be.

Who is this Somatic Skincare™ program for ?

This program is for you if…. 

• You’re a woman working to heal a chronic illness or chronic exhaustion and is ready for more energy and ease in her life.

• You’re feeling isolated, anxious or ashamed about  your appearance and how it’s impacting your life and your relationships.

• You’re a woman who feels she’s lost too much time worrying and wants to do epic sh*t now before it’s too late, but can’t stop the guilt and shame of the past.

• You’ve been scouring the internet trying to find answers to why you feel so overwhelmed and want a reliable source that goes beyond pills, powders and prescriptions.

• You’ve thought to yourself, “Am I broken? I’m so stuck, why can’t I “fix” this and just be happy?!

• You’re a woman who feels she has to hide under layers of clothing, makeup or a mask to avoid other’s gaze and opinions and wants to feel seen, heard and valued just as she is.

• You’re a woman who sees life as it is and as it could be and is ready to bridge the gap to live more joyfully now.

• You feel so alone and that no one truly understands you, even though you’re in a relationship or a room full of people.

• You’re a woman who finds herself at the mercy of random acts of anger, crying at the drop of a hat, and wants to stay centered and calm under pressure.

• You’re a woman who feels stuck under layers of overwhelm, anxiety, or sadness because of her conditioning, inherited patterns, and the stories she’s been told about yourself and is ready to shed that sh*t.

If you recognize yourself in one of these statements, then I invite you to join me inside Somatic Skincare™.

Why join Somatic Skincare™?

We live in a culture designed to alienate us from our individual and collective presence, leaving us weighed down with the heavy burden of stress and unresolved trauma. 

This can show up in our lives as disconnection, anxiety, exhaustion and distraction.

It can show up as headaches, joint aches, bloating and skin outbreaks.

When we lose touch with our emotions and try to numb our pain, we become fragmented within ourselves and this separation carries over into our relationships with ourselves, others, and the world around us.

Somatic Skincare™ is the only program that addresses and supports all of you: mind, body, skin & soul.

This isn’t about lofty platitudes or inspirational Instagram quotes.

Inside this 3 month program, you’ll learn a skill-set based on a blend of ancient wisdom and groundbreaking modern science, while practicing evidence-based tools that will serve as a foundation upon which to build your most authentic life.

Meet Your Guide

Hi, I’m Dr. Keira Barr – creator of Somatic Skincare™, dual board-certified integrative dermatologist, certified in somatic trauma healing therapy, somatic parts work, relational trauma, mind-body medicine and as a breathwork facilitation. I’m also an author and podcaster.

But despite the thousands of hours of education and 27+ years in medicine, my most important credential is having learned how to love and accept myself as I am.

My motto? We teach best what we need to learn the most.

My own personal struggles living comfortably inside my skin has been my North Star when creating the foundation of my business. I’m in the trenches doing this work myself, day-in and day-out. I have a therapist, a somatic coach, and I’m part of a group coaching program.

There’s not a chance I’d ask you to do something I’m not willing to do myself (or I haven’t already tried).

I created Somatic Skincare™ using my proprietary framework (The Skinny Dipping Method), and a combination of research-backed modalities born out of personal experience, client success stories, and evidence-based science.

I love helping women reconnect with their body and mind to help them move forward in an empowered and healthier way.

Frequently Asked Questions.

Let me ask you (if I may), what are you investing in right now? Or, what do you believe is worth investing in?

My hunch is you’ve tried your hand at a few different things in search of excitement, peace, or maybe even joy — from the new handbag, to the gym membership, to the Botox, to the wellness retreats. Yet, each investment in yourself came with diminishing returns for the same reason — there was no follow up, no accountability, no community.

Somatic Skincare is an investment that will hold you accountable. You’ll have a community to foster connections, and an expert to walk alongside you every step of the way to explain what the process should feel like.

First things first, what are you struggling with right now?

• Are you having trouble sleeping?
• Is your relationship struggling?
• Have you gained weight and now you don’t fit into or feel comfortable in your clothes?
• Do you no longer feel like yourself?

After you reflect on that, I want you to ask yourself — what’s that costing you?

I know it’s kind of crappy to say that. But I’ve invested tens of thousands of dollars in courses, certifications, and accolades that haven’t necessarily done ME any good. All because I believed I was “supposed” to check the “right” boxes — I cared more about how other people perceived me than I cared about how I perceived myself. And it wasn’t until I invested in therapy, and a lot of somatic groups, that I learned how to take care of myself.
Whether you want to (1) explore your own body’s potential to heal, (2) have a desire to learn a powerful set of tools to experience more joy and freedom or (3) are a midlife woman wanting to radically upgrade your relationship with everything and everyone in your life… Somatic Skincare is a program that addresses and supports all parts of you: mind-body & soul.

I strongly promote agency, autonomy, and standing in your own authority within our supportive and brave community of women. Participation is 100% voluntary for all members, at all times.

Studies have shown that not only is there power among like-minded women seeking a shared ultimate goal, but it’s a basic human need to feel seen and have a sense of belonging. On top of that, you’ll always have a group of women on the same journey with you, which I believe is incredibly powerful.

Here’s the 411: ask yourself — how much time are you currently wasting spinning your wheels worrying about this and that, fighting exhaustion from nights spent tossing & turning, leaning on your wine/coffee diet to get yourself through?

Well, if you carved out just a little time for yourself, you’ll be surprised to find you have even more hours to spare because you feel less frazzled — meaning:

• You’d experience less chaos in your life.
• You’d be in control of your day.
• You’d set boundaries.
• You’d be able to delegate certain things or things would come off your plate because you realize they no longer matter.

And most importantly, you’d stop giving your time AWAY. Sounds good, right? Joining Somatic Skincare is time you deserve to take for yourself.

I’m right there with you — and here’s what I know. The self-help books, the podcasts, and the idea that changing your thoughts changes your life — it’s been incomplete. We don’t just live in our mind, or our bodies — we need that mind-body connection. And so far, most programs have only been dealing with the mind, when trauma, your patterns, and the way you respond to things are stored in your body.
Nothing you’ve been doing has integrated this process or shown you how to close the intention-action gap.
And that’s why inside Somatic Skincare you won’t just be watching a series of pre-recorded videos — the whole point is to have a live experience. You need to feel what it’s like to do these practices in real time. To unpack what’s happening for you, so that it can be integrated and processed. You will implement step-by-step with me by your side.

Somatic Skincare is a closely guided, mentorship style transformative experience limited to 20 participants in each group so that you get individualized attention. This isn’t a DIY program, this is an “all hands on deck” transformative experience where I’m walking this path alongside you every step of the way.

Absolutely, in fact, most people are. Therapy and what you learn in this program are complimentary. Therapy typically focuses on past events and talking through them. In this program, we focus on what is showing up for you in the present moment and work together in a co-creative way to shed the layers of obstacles, re-pattern your nervous system, achieve goals and move you forward.

This is not therapy in the traditional sense, but it is therapeutic. What makes this program unique is that it blends ancient traditions with evidence-based modern science that’s been distilled down to my signature 6-step method in a way that is proven to provide maximum effectiveness.
Think of this as complementary to traditional therapy or counseling, though many clients have found this to be far more nurturing and nourishing in their healing process due to the structure, tools, and support they receive every step of the way.
Somatic Skincare is designed to support you in returning to your wholeness and supplies everything you could ever need to get yourself there, WITH a toolset that rewards you daily and offers a ROI for life.

If you’ve “tried everything” but haven’t tried something like this, book a call asap and let’s chat.
