Somatic Therapy
Trauma, stress, and emotion don’t just live in the mind, they exist in the body. Somatic therapy is a body-centered approach that helps you reconnect with your felt sense, process “stuck” trauma, and build greater regulation and resilience.
If talk therapy alone hasn’t felt like enough, somatic therapy offers another path: one that honors your body’s intelligence and helps you come back to yourself.
Somatic Therapy Can Help With:
Chronic anxiety or hypervigilance
Dissociation or feeling “numb” or “checked out”
Chronic pain
Trauma and PTSD
Difficulty identifying or expressing emotions
Burnout and chronic stress
Childhood trauma
Somatic therapy isn’t about pushing you into discomfort or trying to fix you. It’s about gently tracking sensations, breath, posture, and subtle body cues - all at your own pace. We might use grounding practices, movement, breathwork, or guided imagery to support your healing.
Our work is informed by Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, polyvagal theory, parts work, attachment theory, and trauma neuroscience. We aim create a space where you can safely explore what’s happening in your body, release patterns that no longer serve you, and build a felt sense of safety and aliveness.
