Somatic therapy is based on the understanding that stress and trauma live in the body as well as the mind. It uses awareness of sensations, breath and movement to help your nervous system settle.
Sessions may include noticing body signals, grounding and gentle regulation practices. It is often combined with talk therapy for trauma, anxiety and chronic stress, and always at your pace.
