Somatic and Holistic Counseling

Somatic healing is a type of therapy that uses the body's own physical sensations to heal emotional and mental processes. It focuses on the body as a whole, instead of just working with the cognitive mind. The idea is to bring awareness to physical sensations which can lead to lasting healing. Somatic healing techniques can include breathing exercises, guided visualization, progressive muscle relaxation, and other mindfulness practices.

When trauma is unresolved, it can lead to physical and emotional distress. Somatic healing helps provide relief from trauma by providing a safe space for trauma survivors to release their emotions. This type of therapy works to reconnect people with their bodies and restore the balance between the body, mind, and spirit. It allows trauma survivors to identify patterns of tension or trauma in the body, and then cope with those sensations.

Somatic healing is a compassionate and effective way to address trauma. Acknowledging the connection between trauma and physical sensation, helps people find relief from trauma and provides a path toward healing. With time, practice, and guidance, somatic healing can help trauma survivors learn to regulate their emotions, build self-confidence, and reconnect with their bodies. Ultimately, somatic healing can help trauma survivors move forward in their lives with a sense of hope and a greater connection to themselves.

Somatic healing provides trauma survivors with a safe space to heal, grow, and become empowered. It is a powerful tool for trauma recovery that can help people reclaim their lives and find joy in their journey of healing. With the right guidance and support, trauma survivors can use somatic healing to find peace and healing from trauma.

My unique integrative approach to the therapeutic process is rooted in partnership and blends holistic and clinical modalities to honor the connection between mind, body, and spirit — to help you see and understand yourself from a more connected and whole perspective. I believe when we learn to replace the lens of negative self-beliefs with one created from empathy, forgiveness, and self-acceptance, we create a ripple effect in all of our relationships and inspire others to do the same.

If trauma has been holding you back from the life you want, somatic healing can help. I invite you to get in touch with me and explore how we might work together. Together, we will create a journey of healing that is uniquely tailored to your needs and goals. You deserve to feel empowered and live a life of joy and freedom. I am here to help you get there.
