Private sessions
One on one, at your pace
Private somatic coaching for individuals in or around recovery, and for the family members carrying it with them. Tell us a little about where you are and we’ll take it from there.
What you get
- In person in Austin or South Florida, or virtual anywhere
- Confidential, trauma-informed, no judgment
- Works alongside clinical treatment, never instead of it
No incense. No jargon. No promises we can’t keep.
We say plainly what breathwork is and what it is not. It is not clinical treatment, and we never let your people believe otherwise. It is nervous system training with a mechanism we can explain in plain language to your most skeptical clinical director or engineer, and it earns its place by how people feel walking out of the room.
The evidence, plainly
The evidence base for breathwork in recovery is real and growing, and it is not yet definitive. We cite what exists, we never oversell it, and every session sits alongside your clinical program.

Delivered your way
Faith-integrated or secular. Your call.
Faith-integrated
Rooted in our own walk: scripture, prayer, and the breath God breathed, woven through the session. We facilitate from Christian faith ourselves, we honor your statement of faith, and we will walk your pastor or program director through the full session content before we ever deliver it.
For ministries: staff and volunteer care sessions, retreat blocks, and church workshops. We never replace or modify your curriculum.
Secular
The same nervous-system work in clinical and corporate language. Nothing preached, nothing diluted. Built for workplaces and programs that need it neutral.
Secular delivery means zero religious content in the room, ever. Same method, same facilitators. That is a guarantee, not a preference.
Your choice, in the inquiry form above or whenever we talk.
Clinical trust
How we keep it safe
The first question a clinical director should ask about breathwork is the safety question. Here is our answer, in writing.
Screening first, every time
Written pre-session screening for contraindications: seizure history, cardiovascular conditions, psychosis, recent psychiatric crisis, pregnancy, and the rest of the list we publish openly on our sessions page. Clinical-population sessions default to slow, regulation-focused protocols; intense formats happen only when your clinical team approves and screened participants opt in.
Invitational, always
Everything works seated or lying down, every part is invitational, and every session has a named opt-down: anyone can ease off to slow breathing at any moment, no explanation needed. Your clinical staff are welcome in the room, every time.
Your slot never goes dark
Two certified facilitators back each other up, and a virtual session stands in if life ever gets in the way. Sessions fit a standard 50 to 90 minute group block, on your schedule, not ours.
Your confidentiality rules, not ours
We sign your confidentiality agreement, including 42 CFR Part 2 terms. No client records are needed to run sessions, first names only in the room, no photos, and we will never ask your clients for testimonials.

FAQ
Straight answers
Is this clinical treatment?
No. Breathwork is a complementary somatic practice. It works alongside clinical care and licensed therapy, never instead of them, and we say that plainly to your clients too.
Who facilitates the sessions?
Tyler Vazquez, founder of Breath for Recovery and certified in the Cloud Breathwork Method, and Christian Johnston, ASU-certified in Somatic Breathwork and founder of Cloud Breathwork in Austin. Both are in recovery themselves and facilitate from lived experience. You meet both in the pilot session before any commitment, and your clinical staff are welcome in the room every time.
What does an engagement look like?
Usually a single pilot session first, so your team and your clients can feel the work. If it lands, we set a recurring cadence sized to your program, on-site in Austin or South Florida, or virtual anywhere.
Do participants need any experience?
None. Sessions are guided end to end, work seated or lying down, and every part is invitational. Trauma-informed means choice: anyone can ease off to slow breathing at any point.
Is this religious?
Only if you want it to be. Every engagement chooses faith-integrated or secular delivery, and both come from the same two facilitators. We serve church-based ministries and secular clinical programs with equal respect.
Can family members take part?
Yes. We work with spouses, parents, and siblings, privately or alongside the person in recovery. Families carry this fight too; supporting them is part of the mission.
What does it cost?
We price by scope after a short conversation, and most partners start with a single pilot session before committing to a cadence. No pressure either way.
Where do you work?
In person in Austin, Texas and in South Florida: Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and West Palm Beach. Virtual anywhere. For engagements further afield, tell us what you have in mind in the inquiry and we will figure it out together.
Who should not do intense breathwork?
Anyone with a history of seizures, cardiovascular conditions, psychosis or a recent psychiatric crisis, pregnancy, or the other conditions we screen for in writing before the first session. For those clients we stay with slow, grounded breathing. Intensity is never the point; regulation is.
