With the right therapeutic approach, you can rewrite your story and heal from the inside out. Somatic (of the body) healing holds the most powerful therapeutic tools I have found to properly process trauma, unresolved emotions and to regulate your nervous system.
One of the greatest myths is that you can fully process your emotions, your trauma and your past by using cognitive processing with a psychologist or psychiatrist. True healing + completion cannot be found through talking.
It is found through experiencing in the body.
We are wounded through experiencing, and we heal through experiencing.
Somatic healing is the work that helps you remember how to let go of trying to understand with your mind, and instead allow your body to do the processing.
The first thing you do when you enter this world, and the last thing you do before you leave, is take a breath. And it is what regulates everything in between. Our breath is one of the only autonomic functions of the body that we can take full control of. When used properly and with precision, it becomes our direct access point into our nervous system, our stored stress and survival, our unhealed wounds and our ability to activate our body's natural healing abilites.
I use a combination of therapeutic breathwork, somatic experiencing techniques, movement, gentle bodywork, energy work, sound healing + more. I facilitate from a place of embodiment, having lived this work myself first before teaching it.
