1:1 Trauma-Informed Somatic Therapy 

We live in a world that constantly demands more from us. Social media, comparison culture, perfectionism and the pressure to always be "on" can leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected and never quite good enough.

Maybe you don’t think of yourself as someone with trauma, but you find yourself:

🔸

High levels of anxiety and panic or stuck in cycles of stress, self-doubt, or burnout - pushing yourself hard but never feeling like you’re doing enough.

🔸

Trapped in perfectionism and people-pleasing, unable to slow down or set boundaries.

 

🔸

Comparing yourself constantly, feeling like everyone else is thriving while you’re barely keeping up.

 

🔸

Emotionally exhausted or numb, struggling to feel present, inspired or connected.

 

Or maybe you do recognise you had a difficult past, grief, loss and or a difficult childhood,  but over time, you decided to just "move on" or "just get on with it" You don’t see the point in digging it all up again - yet something still feels unfinished, blocked or disconnected.

 

🔸

You’re tired of fear, anxiety or old patterns/habits holding you back from fully living.

 

🔸

You sense there’s something deeper to feel, but don’t know how to access it.

 

🔸

You’re ready for more - more clarity, more ease, more connection with yourself and life.

​How somatic therapy helps


Healing doesn’t require reliving the past. Most of what affects us lives in the subconscious and the body, shaping our emotions, habits and reactions - often without us realising it.

Instead of endlessly unpacking the past, we focus on how your body holds those experiences today - gently releasing stored tension, survival patterns and emotional stress that may be affecting your mental, emotional and physical health.

This isn’t about forcing happiness or fixing yourself - it’s about creating space to feel, process and fully engage with life. Healing means opening your heart to all of it - the joy, the grief, the messiness and the beauty of being fully alive.

This journey will help you to.....

 

✔️

Develop self-trust and emotional resilience - so you’re not constantly caught in stress or self-doubt.

✔️

Regulate your nervous system in a way that feels sustainable - so you don’t have to rely on pushing through.

✔️

Reconnect with your body’s wisdom - so healing becomes something you embody, not just something you understand intellectually.

What to expect from your sessions

 

Healing trauma and stress requires a delicate, trauma-informed approach, with safety as the foundation. Each session is held in a grounded, attuned presence - a space where you are truly met and listened to, without rush or judgement.

Our focus will be on establishing stability and safety within your body and nervous system. Gently exploring and processing past experiences at a pace that suits you. Building emotional resilience and reconnecting with your body’s natural wisdom.

Somatic approaches include

 

🌿

Nervous System Regulation (Polyvagal-Informed) - Supporting emotional regulation by working with the autonomic nervous system to promote safety, calm and resilience.

  🌿

Compassionate Somatic Inquiry - A body-led process of exploring sensations, emotions and beliefs with curiosity, helping to uncover stored patterns and invite new awareness.  

 

🌿

Inner Parts & Imaginal Work – Drawing on different approaches such as parts work, feeding your demons and active imagination. These practices invite you to meet protective, younger, or shadow aspects of yourself with compassion. By engaging them through imagery, dialogue and embodied awareness, we create the conditions for integration, transformation and a deeper sense of wholeness.

 

🌿

Somatic Tracking & Sensorimotor Awareness - Observing the body’s internal signals (interoception) and using that awareness to support emotional regulation and self-connection.

 

🌿

Bilateral Stimulation - When appropriate, I may incorporate gentle bilateral practices to support emotional integration. 

 

🌿

Mindful Movement, Meditation & Breathwork - Reconnecting with the body through accessible practices that support regulation, grounding and presence.
