Somatics derives from the Greek word "soma," meaning "living body." The goal of each session is to create a more integrated and harmonious relationship between the body and mind, leading to improved physical and emotional health.
Trauma-Informed Somatic Therapy
explore the mind-body connection to help support you moving to your optimal, thriving self
Trauma-informed somatics recognizes that trauma can profoundly impact the body and mind, often resulting in patterns of tension, dissociation, or hyperarousal. Practitioners trained in trauma-informed approaches understand the importance of creating a safe and supportive environment for clients. They are sensitive to the potential for triggering and work to ensure that clients feel empowered and in control throughout the process.
Techniques used in trauma-informed somatics are designed to help individuals reconnect with their bodies in a gentle and non-threatening way. This may involve slow, mindful movements, grounding exercises, and a focus on building safety and trust. The aim is to help clients develop a greater sense of body awareness and autonomy, which can be particularly beneficial for those recovering from trauma.
