Approach
Treatment Approaches
Somatic coachingGood for those who want to use body awareness and movement to release emotional tension and promote personal growth.
Somatic ExperiencingGood for those who want to use the mind-body connection to` address the effects of trauma and restore natural regulation of the nervous system.
Physical and mental ailments are often consequences of chronic stress and trauma. Trauma may result from a wide variety of stressors such as accidents, invasive medical procedures, sexual or physical assault, emotional abuse, neglect, war, natural disasters, loss, birth trauma, or the corrosive stressors of ongoing fear and conflict, or even just strenuous life events that happened too often, too quickly or too suddenly.
SE facilitates the completion of self-protective motor responses and the release of thwarted survival energy bound in the body, thus addressing the root cause of trauma symptoms. This is approached by gently guiding clients to develop increasing tolerance for difficult bodily sensations and suppressed emotions.
The goal of SE is to restore the body’s natural self-regulation and, as a result, transform and heal the symptoms experienced in the body.
I offer both individual sessions and group trainings - both also online.
