Somatic Psychotherapy for Individuals and Relationships
Your embodied existence is beautiful and you are so worthy of love, care, and rest.
Learning to love our bodies in this fast-paced, technologically advanced, western society is HARD. Learning to listen to our bodies, to hear their desires, their pains and needs can be even harder.
I am someone who knows first-hand what it is like to have a confusing and uncomfortable relationship with one’s body. To feel overwhelmed with sensations and symptoms, or not be able to process the many changes our bodies experience over a lifetime. To have received messages or beliefs that your embodied experience is:
not ‘normal’
a burden
not worthy
too weak
lazy
too sensitive
not enough
too much
Through my own personal and professional healing journey, I have learned that our bodies want to come back into balance.
With the right support, compassion, and resources we can:
Regulate and rewire our nervous systems from fight/flight/freeze to experiencing more ease.
Increase energy flow
Move through shame
Create more space for joy, creativity, playfulness
Decrease physical discomfort and pain
More strongly advocate for our needs and boundaries
Increase our self-esteem and confidence
Embrace our authentic selves
Feel more deeply fulfilled and connected with in our relationships.
