Somatics
What do I mean by “Somatics” and how can I help you?
First, I’ll say that I am not a certified therapist or coach. My ability to work this way and help people comes from 18 months of experiencing and learning to help people understand repressed emotions and parts of themselves through somatic techniques. These techniques include breathwork, movement, somatic tracking, parts work, and verbal processing.
The goal for my work is to help you gain a detailed understanding of your nervous system and internal landscape. We’ll learn what pushes you to your edge, what overwhelms your system and how to bring your body and mind back to feeling safe. We’ll learn what parts of yourself need to be heard and shown that they are no longer in the traumas they experienced and can trust YOU to keep them safe.
We’ll learn that you are not broken nor have you ever been. You have just been learning, unlearning, and remembering what it truly means to be YOU.
When we work through these things it allows your nervous system to expand its capacity to hold emotions that come with a lot of energy. Emotions like shame, rage, and heart break but also ones like love, joy, and bliss. When we can hold these emotions they don’t overwhelm and shut us down, they dance with us and show us the beauty of the human experience.
1-on-1 Somatic Sessions
In these sessions we will use different techniques such as, breathwork, movement, somatic tracking, parts work, and verbal processing to work with stuck emotions, and/or parts of self.
Our sessions will start with making sure your body can feel and access safety. Then using the techniques listed we will learn about what parts or emotions are feeling present and move with them slowly and gently to get to know and/or release them.
Each sessions is usually quite different since we are always working with what feels the most alive for you. Then using the best technique to help you work with it.
