Somatic and Embodiment Therapy

Our physical bodies are highly intelligent information systems. Embodiment in its simplest form is living a life informed by and incorporating all the senses of the body. 

As humans living in modern society, we have been conditioned to understand our “problems” through the mind, rather than integrating all aspects of our being (mind, body, and energy system) to inform, guide, and heal us. Our body offers us a whole area of often untapped knowledge and awareness that when tended to, is a highly effective tool for creating lasting change, healing, and insight.

Through the development of body knowledge, we begin to develop awareness on a new level. We are more able to transcend the narratives of the past or the stories we tell ourselves about the future. This practice brings us into the present and allows us to connect to our lives more fully. 

Through this integration, we begin to develop awareness on a new level. Our body becomes a gateway to a more grounded, present, and mindful way of living.

Together we will increase your ability to maintain a moment-to-moment awareness of thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations, and the environment through a non-judgmental and kind lens. 

We will look into your thinking patterns with curiosity and compassion, and identify how these patterns show up in your physical body and impact your reactions to the world around you, your relationship with yourself, and your relationship with others.

I have incorporated somatic and embodiment practices personally and professionally for over two decades. I can speak to the immense role these practices play in helping me and many of my clients, heal trauma, break out of habitual negative thinking patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and low self-worth, and bring an overall sense of equanimity to everyday life.
