Somatic, trauma-informed therapy for people who understand why they struggle — but still feel it in their body.
If you feel anxious, overwhelmed, emotionally reactive, numb, or stuck despite insight-oriented therapy, this work offers a different way forward.
Healing happens through the body — not just through talking.
Who This Work Is For
You’re in the right place if you:
feel Anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally reactive.
you’re a highly sensitive person (HSP) or deeply attuned empath.
feel stuck in traditional talk therapy
hold trauma in your body, tension, shutdown, collapse, hypervigilance.
struggle with self regulation, anger, boundaries, or emotional expression.
want deeper mind-body healing, not just coping skills.
sense there is more inside you, more calm, more clarity, more confidence, but can’t access it alone.
This work is for people who don’t just want to talk about healing, they want to feel it in their body.
How This Work Helps You Heal
Traditional talk therapy helps you understand your story — but sometimes understanding isn’t enough to shift the patterns held in your body. Somatic therapy works differently. It helps you feel the change, not just talk about it.
This approach gently supports your nervous system, making room for more calm, clarity, and connection. Instead of fighting your symptoms, we learn to work with your body so it can soften, release, and reset.
Over time, you build the ability to stay present, feel grounded, and move through difficult emotions without shutting down or feeling overwhelmed.
This is how healing becomes integrated — not forced, not bypassed — but lived inside your body.
The Somatic Approach
Somatic therapy reconnects you with your body — the place where trauma, stress, and emotional patterns live.
Instead of pushing through or analyzing your symptoms, we slow down, notice, and create safety inside your system.
Through breath, gentle movement, grounding, imagery, and mindful awareness, your body learns it no longer has to stay in survival mode.
What changes with this work?
• Your nervous system becomes more regulated
• You stay present instead of shutting down
• Emotions move through instead of getting stuck
• You feel more choice, confidence, and internal stability
• Your body begins to trust itself again
Somatic therapy gives you tools that actually work in the moment, not just later in reflection.
WHAT SESSIONS FEEL LIKE
Somatic therapy with me is gentle, attuned, and collaborative.
I don’t push your body to open before it’s ready — we move at the pace your system can safely handle.
In our work together, you can expect:
• A grounded, calm space where your body is not rushed
• Slow, mindful pacing that helps your system settle
• Gentle movement, breath, imagery, or grounding — only when it feels right
• Emotional expression that feels supported rather than overwhelming
• A therapist who tracks your cues, your pace, and your nervous system
My approach is compassionate, steady, and responsive.
You don’t have to perform, explain everything perfectly, or “hold it all together.”
Your body leads — and I support the unfolding.
WHAT MAKES THIS WORK DIFFERENT
Most people come to me after years of traditional talk therapy.
They’ve gained insight, but their body still reacts the same way — tense, overwhelmed, anxious, shut down, or on alert.
Here’s why this work goes deeper:
• Insight isn’t enough when the body is still in survival mode
• We work with your nervous system, not against it
• Your pace leads — not pressure, pushing, or intensity
• We build safety inside your body so change actually lasts
• You experience healing in real time, not just in reflection
Somatic therapy doesn’t ask you to talk about your pain while your body stays overwhelmed.
It helps your system soften, shift, and trust again — from the inside out.
