Über mich
HEY, I'M ISABEL, A TRAUMA-INFORMED SOMATIC THERAPIST, SPECIALISED IN USING THE BODY TO ACCESS THE DEEPEST KNOWLEDGE OF OUR PSYCHES AND SOULS.
I work with individuals looking to address a specific emotional/physical concern, or looking to embark on a deeper self exploration. In both cases, we safely unpack the emotional residue stored on your body's muscles and organs, releasing stuckness from the soma and subconscious mind at the same time.
We'll start your somatic journey together from what is alive in you in the present moment, whether that's emotions or physical sensations, or both, or none! I have worked somatically with people from all over the world, from ages 6 - 92, some feeling a lot, some feeling nothing at all: there's no better place to start than where you are at.
My approach is holistic and broad enough to follow the direction and pace of your body: I'm trained in trauma-informed Somatic Education and UnShaming, Art-Therapy, Access Bars, Reiki and Shiatsu Massage. Holding all of this together is my life-long study of human energy and spirit. We'll evaluate the best course of therapy for you specifically.
My background is very international, having moved countries numerous times from the age of 11. I know exactly how much our bodies work to store things we can't process at specific time of transition and turbulence, and have had the pleasure to witness (on myself and on others) how the body holds the key to completing our emotional processes.

Ansatz
When we limit the processing of our emotions to thinking about them (as opposed to FEELING them), we unequivocally leave traces left to be processed in our bodies: that's what we will tackle in somatic therapy. The beauty of working with the body is that you don't need to know or travel back to where symptoms are coming from to address them, the body will connect the dots for us in the here and now.
WE'LL EXPLORE YOUR EMOTIONS AND SENSATIONS USING SOMA LANGUAGE* (MOVEMENT, TOUCH, BREATH AND SOUND), OBSERVING THE PATH AND PACE THAT YOUR BODY GIVES US TO JOURNEY DEEPER.
*The body reorganises in safety, so all this exploration will be done with maximum nervous system regulation and respecting the pace and boundaries of each person individually.
My sessions are a mix of talk and body activations, always personalised: we'll have a 20min discovery call (free) to discuss what you are looking to address and current state, from which to find the right structure for you.
My sessions will greatly help those experiencing:
- Confusion and frustration about their body's physical symptoms
- Persistent emotional narratives and limiting beliefs
- Disconnection from their intuition and pleasure
- Disassociation/avoidance from feelings/body
- Creative blocks
You can expect to come out of a session with:
- A weight lifted off your shoulders
- A deeper connection with your inner genius and creativity
- A sense of relaxation and release
- New knowledge about yourself and your body ULTIMATELY, over time, you'll become aware of new layers of your emotional self, learn to speak your body's own language, increase your capacity to feel in safety, and know what to do in heightened emotional states.
