What is Somatic Therapy and is it right for ME?

Body, mind, and emotions are inseparable.

Somatic Therapy is a body-centered approach that integrates touch and talk, inviting you to explore how your thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations work together.

In our work, we explore the body, emotional awareness, nervous system regulation, body-based practices, and present-moment awareness in a collaborative and creative way. Clients are invited to notice and make sense of patterns, beliefs, physical responses, and emotional experiences, while exploring new possibilities for change, integration, and a more embodied way of living.

How Somatic Therapy near me works

Our bodies can reflect the experiences, patterns, and relationships we've moved through over time. Somatic work brings attention to the connection between physical sensations, emotions, thoughts, and how we respond to the world around us.

Through body awareness, present-moment exploration, and nervous system regulation practices, we can become more curious about what is happening now and what may be connected to earlier experiences. The process is collaborative — noticing sensations, exploring patterns, and making space for new responses and possibilities.

Sessions may combine touch and talk, along with body-based practices, reflection, and creative exploration. You are always invited to notice what feels meaningful to you, what doesn't, and what you would like to explore. All in-person sessions are fully clothed, with consent around touch, and take place on a padded table. To learn more, visit the About Somatic Therapy page and Resources for literature, tools, and videos.

All sessions are fully clothed - both seated and laying on a padded table. To learn more please visit the “About Somatic Therapy” page and “Resources” for literature, blogs and videos.
