Somatic Therapy
​
What Is Somatic Therapy?
​
Somatic Therapy is a body-based approach that recognises the connection between the mind, body, and nervous system. It acknowledges that stress, trauma, and emotional experiences are often held in the body, not just in thoughts.
​
Rather than focusing only on talking, somatic therapy gently supports awareness of bodily sensations to restore regulation and a sense of safety.
​

How I Use Somatic Therapy
​
Somatic work is introduced carefully and at your pace. You remain fully present, in control, and supported throughout the process.
​
Sessions may involve:
-
Noticing physical sensations linked to stress or emotion
-
Learning how your nervous system responds to overwhelm or shutdown
-
Developing regulation and grounding skills
-
Gently releasing stored tension or stress responses
-
Reconnecting mind and body in a safe, contained way
​
There is no pressure to relive past experiences or push emotional release.
​
When Somatic Therapy Can Help
​
Somatic therapy can be helpful if you:
-
Feel anxiety or stress primarily in your body
-
Feel disconnected, numb, or overwhelmed
-
Find talking alone is not enough
-
Experience trauma, chronic stress, or burnout
-
Want a more embodied approach to healing
​
The aim is to help your nervous system feel safer and more balanced, allowing emotional healing to occur naturally.
