Somatic counselling is a trauma-informed, body-oriented
approach to therapy that recognises 'self' as the integration of body,
mind, environment and experience. 

The modality combines counselling with somatic principles, the sensorimotor aspect, focusing and felt-senses, the neurological aspect, nervous system regulation, the relational aspect, experience, identity 
and other aspects of 'soma' and 'Self'.  
 

It recognises that all experiences are embedded in the body's memory - 
in posture, breath, tension patterns, fascia, the cells and as physiological responses.

Somatic therapy can assist in cultivating awareness and support shifting and moving of trauma symptoms, anxiety, grief, self-sabotage, compulsions, imposter syndrome and other challenging emotions and assist in the creation of neuroplasticity and a more resilient 'self', more coherent and aligned. 

The modality involves a process of cultivation of body (somatic) awareness that supports interoception, accessing resources and the body's 'knowing', accessing implicit memory and meaning making, shifting unwanted patterns, attachments, limiting beliefs, difficult emotions, dysregulation and other symptoms.

Sessions are guided in a safe and inclusive container, paced to meet your individual needs and support your capacity for sustained, integrated process of working towards change and exploring new possibilities.
