Body somatic therapy focuses on the body and how emotions appear within the body. The human body stores emotion through traumatic or unresolved experiences. Phrases you may associate with are "I feel trapped inside," - "I feel unsettled," - "I feel like a weight is on me," - "I feel paralyzed."

Feeling such emotions can be debilitating. It can affect everyday life so it is hard to do everyday tasks. This is operating in autopilot or survival mode which causes reactive emotions, numbing, or disassociated behaviors.

Body Somatic Therapy helps you pause long enough to re-align and bring you back into your body so that you are aware and can allow the nervous system to reset to find safety and security. This takes practice and will release tension and put you in a state of living in the present moment.

This powerful work restores and rebuilds trust, helping you understand your needs and wants—something every human deserves.

Breathing techniques are a grounding practice that helps calm the nervous system. It is a powerful tool when experiencing a tremendous amount of grief as grief has a way of taking our breath away.

We are not meant to stay in a state of suffering and so this gift of finding your breath again will help remind you what is possible beyond the grief we are holding.

Developing a mindfulness breathing practice will allow your grief to speak in a way that brings clarity and meaning.

It can also bring you into a conscious state of awareness and present state of mind. Your story matters so let’s give it meaning.

EFT (emotional freedom techniques) Tapping helps to regulate the nervous system and manage emotions to help discover the root of the emotion and allow the emotion to come full circle.

This technique is great for anxiety, PTSD, depression, grief, and other mental health experiences.

There are so many benefits to tapping. This practice stimulates acupuncture by touch rather than needles which teaches the body’s energy to travel along specific pathways to improve the flow of energy.

Our bodies store emotions and when those emotions are left suppressed or ignored they can develop added stress and lack of rest. I refer to our bodies as our home and if you don’t feel safe within your home than chances are you're not present or aware of what is going on in your body. 

Chronic pain, insomnia, auto immune…these are just a few things that pop up when we don’t release the stress and emotions stored in the body. Your body is always talking to you and is the pathway to healing as it is all connected.

Trauma Release does exactly what it says. It helps you release the trauma your body is holding onto and allows it to move instead of staying stuck or ignored. This work is a process and it also takes a tremendous amount of focus and commitment to become aware of your body and your needs.

This tool can also help build the confidence you need to feel good in your own skin so you can feel safe when maybe everything else around you doesn’t feel that way.

IFS (Internal Family Systems) is a transformative tool helps identify your inner workings as an individual. We are all made up of different parts and each part deserves attention and healing.

Some parts can become frozen in time through a traumatic event or core memory that took place in your life. When given a safe environment you can begin to gain the perspective you need today when maybe it was hard to give that to your younger self.

IFS has the power to restore and heal shame, guilt, and so many other emotions that make you feel trapped at times. IFS helps you repair and tend to the wounds as you develop more into a grounded and well equipped state of mind.
