Somatic Therapy

Somatic therapy is a body-centered approach to counselling that recognizes the body as a constant source of communication, insight, and healing. Our body speaks to us all throughout the day, and somatic therapy helps us learn to listen.

In our work together, somatic therapy may include:

  • Learning the basics of the nervous system

  • Exploring mental health and personal experiences through a body-based lens

  • Noticing how your body communicates with you

  • Practicing connection with the body to support regulation, self-understanding, emotional processing, and stress relief

Somatic therapy is a powerful way to build a relationship with your body as both a resource and a guide alongside your mind. It can be especially helpful in working with trauma, attachment wounds, and unresolved emotions.

My somatic therapy practice is informed by Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and Polyvagal Theory.
