Stress and overwhelm are not just in our minds but also within our bodies. Somatic Therapy goes beyond talk therapy. It gently guides you to explore, process and release the way difficulties are showing up in your whole system. Within this approach, the body is seen as a powerful resource for deepening therapeutic work and empowering clients.
Some symptoms of somatic stress are:
- overwhelm
- shallow breathing
- increased heart rate
- sleep issues
- digestion & elimination issues
- headaches
- attention issues
- muscle & joint pain
- shutting down
What is Somatic Therapy?
Somatic Therapy is a comprehensive and holistic approach because it brings more of you into our work. You will learn processes like grounding, visualization, meditation, mindfulness, movement techniques, among others.
What happens to us is not only stored in our minds, but also within our bodies. Somatic work aims to resolve issues on a deeper level. Somatic Therapy helps you to deal with feelings of overwhelm rather than overriding or suppressing bodily responses.
You can learn, practice and incorporate somatic tools into your daily life so you can continue your therapeutic work beyond our sessions.
