There was a time when I felt trapped by anxiety, depression, and overwhelm. I spent years feeling like I was constantly reacting to the world around me—easily overwhelmed, shutting down, and unsure how to move forward. I was living in a hypervigiliant state - always on edge, feeling unsafe in relationships and in my aloneness. This was also followed with depressive states followed by shame and guilt. Working with a Practitioner in Somatic Experiencing has transformed my emotional well being by helping my brain and body recognize safety and reducing my sensitivity to unpleasant sensations and arousal. I now feel more in control, I welcome unpleasant bodily sensations when they show up, and feel more safe in my body.

I’m currently a student in Somatic Experiencing and would love to support you in creating a relationship with your body that fosters healing and connection. Throw out your definition of trauma - trauma is completing in the body what was not allowed to complete! Lets forgive our system for protecting us, but now let's help it feel safe instead. In our sessions, we will learn to track bodily sensations, explore gentle movements that the body feels impulsed to do, lessen the "charge" of what shows up in our system and process traumatic experiences at a pace that feels right for your nervous system. Let your nervous system meet mine, and do this healing stuff together.
