BACK TO THE BODY
Somatic Therapy - A body based approach to healing
Healing is not just a mental process - it must also involve the body. Somatic therapy recognizes that our emotions and experiences, trauma & stress are stored physically in our bodies, often manifesting as symptoms like tension, pain, unbalanced hormones or discomfort.​
​
By engaging the body in therapy, we can access and process the root of these symptoms more effectively, leading to deeper healing than traditional talking therapies alone can provide.
Inside your body,
there are stories waiting to
be told in the presence
of safety and compassion.
THE WISDOM OF YOUR BODY
Your body is a profound source of wisdom and creativity, possessing an innate intelligence that can restore balance and harmony within. In a world that pathologizes our natural responses to trauma, it’s essential to recognize that your body is always working to protect you—even when discomfort manifests emotionally, mentally, or physically.
Truth is, your nervous system is the most skilled pharmacist you could ever access, equipped with restorative powers that can guide you towards healing and harmony.
YOUR INFINITE POTENTIAL
Each of us is born with immense potential, yet life experiences and societal influences can narrow our expression of this potential. Patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating can create barriers, leading to stress, anxiety, and inner conflict. But the key to unlocking your true self lies in awareness. By cultivating attention to your body through self-attunement, mindful touch, breath, and movement, you can begin to recognize and
release these limiting patterns.
HOW I WORK
In our sessions, I will guide you on a journey of somatic healing - a transformative bottom-up approach designed to release deeply held trauma. Together, we will explore what your body is communicating: the areas of tension, the sensations you may have been avoiding, and how these physical reactions relate to your present emotional experience. This process empowers you to let go of what no longer serves you, and equips you with new tools to move through life.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Imagine gaining greater control over your responses, transforming feelings of helplessness into a deep sense of empowerment and trust. Through the sessions you will learn to embrace the flow of energy within you, breaking through limitations to reconnect with your body’s pleasure and boundless possibilities.
