Discover Healing Through Somatic Therapy

Somatic therapy is a holistic approach to counselling that recognises the intricate connection between the mind and body in emotional healing. Somatic therapy acknowledges that emotional distress and trauma can manifest physically in the body.

How Does Somatic Therapy Work?

In somatic therapy sessions, I guide you to pay attention to bodily sensations, movements, and gestures as you explore your thoughts and feelings. By attuning to these bodily experiences, you can access deeper layers of emotional and psychological understanding, often bypassing the limitations of verbal communication alone.

Key Principles of Somatic Therapy

  • Mind-Body Connection: Somatic therapy acknowledges that unresolved emotional experiences can become stored in the body, leading to physical tension, discomfort, and illness.

  • Trauma-Informed Approach: I am trained to recognise and address the symptoms of trauma, helping you process and release stored trauma from the body in a safe and supportive environment.

  • Embodied Presence: Through somatic therapy, you learn to cultivate a greater sense of self-awareness and embodiment, reconnecting with your physical sensations and inner wisdom.

Benefits of Somatic Therapy

  • Holistic Healing: Somatic therapy offers a holistic approach to healing that integrates body, mind, and spirit.

  • Trauma Resolution: Somatic therapy can be particularly effective in resolving trauma symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

  • Increased Self-Awareness: Clients often report increased self-awareness, emotional regulation, and resilience through somatic therapy practices.

  • Enhanced Well-being: By releasing physical tension and emotional blockages, somatic therapy can promote overall well-being and vitality.
