somatic trauma care

Bring care to relational wounds

Our early relationships have a profound impact on our self-worth and our ability to experience connection and intimacy as adults.  I support people who have experienced developmental and relational trauma and neglect in connecting with relational safety and a more empowered and joyful sense of self.

Somatic trauma care
  • Creates a safe, loving and attuned container
  • Builds skills for somatic awareness
  • Helps you understand and track your nervous system states
  • Teaches you about and works with your energy body
  • Utilizes gentle and intentional touch
  • Brings mindful attention to the sensations/ images/ emotions/ memories in your body as a portal to accessing what's "stuck"
  • Meets difficult material with skilled care to allow what's no longer serving you to release and flow through
  • Helps you identify and voice your needs and create healthy boundaries
  • Teaches you how to regulate and soothe your nervous system
MY APPROACH IS INFLUENCED BY
Polyvagal Theory- a scientific framework for understanding trauma, the body and the nervous system

NeuroAffective Touch- an approach integrating psychotherapy with touch, supporting healing from developmental trauma and attachment wounds

Somatic Sex Education- connecting with inner wisdom, empowering choice and voice and trauma-conscious touch

Wisdom traditions and energy medicine- mindfulness, bringing attention to the energy body and transpersonal elements of our experience
I do not diagnose and treat mental health disorders or medical conditions of any kind. Instead, I work within a client-centered, positive, relational model that celebrates your strengths and uniqueness and creates space for healing, growth and expansion.
