Somatic Therapy

These Sessions help you to compassionately explore your own internal experience through skilful cues, questions, and techniques that allow you to navigate the painful beliefs and feelings that lie beneath the surface.

Together, we build a welcoming relationship with the sensations that arise in your body.

As a result, they can be released, leaving you with greater internal freedom and the capacity to process emotions.

In order to explore our bodies and the wounds they hold, we must first establish a foundation of safety.

Then we invite in whatever wants to be looked at: a painful emotion, belief, memory or some other part of yourself that we know is causing suffering.

I then help you to go deeper into that part of you using specific inquiries and tools before guiding you through the act of processing and integrating the emotional residue.

Throughout my sessions, I sprinkle in explanations of the nervous system and insights into how thoughts and feelings work to help you develop an understanding of what’s going on for you.

I also give you tools and practices that you can (and should!) take into your daily life in order to be able to turn the challenges of life into opportunities to heal.

These sessions are a combination of Embodied Processing Techniques and Trauma Informed Stabilisation Treatment. No two individuals are the same, so each of my clients requires a slightly varied approach.
