Somatic Therapy

The past keeps intruding on the present.

You have been through a lot. You are a warrior and have cruised through OK until now.

You seem to have everything you want, even the partner you always dreamed of. Still, the thought of them touching you or being emotionally close to you is scary and makes you push them away.

The intrusive thoughts of your past keep flooding back, and it has been hard to keep it together. It is hard to imagine a future where you can happily embrace life.

The compliments you receive don’t resonate with you, and you feel broken and unlovable.

Somatic therapy can help you live in the present.

Somatic psychotherapists understand that emotion, behavior, sensation, impulse, energy, action, gesture, etc. originate in physical experiences. A somatic approach to treatment examines how past traumatic experiences cause physical symptoms, which in turn affect emotional regulation, cognition, and daily functioning.

Our bodies keep secrets and are deeply affected by the trauma we experience in our lives. These traumatic events make strong impressions on our bodies at the cellular level and change us. Through Somatic therapy, clients learn to cultivate an awareness of their body and their body sensations, becoming comfortable and safe in their bodies while exploring thoughts, emotions, and memories.

Somatic therapy helps clients relieve the tension of holding their feelings inside. As a somatic therapist, I assist the client in releasing the pent-up emotions in their body through various mind-body techniques like acupressure, breath work, and body movement.

Experience a mind-body connection.

Somatic therapy is one way we can approach your healing.

Through this form of therapy, you can release the negativity trapped inside your body.
