Frequently Asked Questions

What is somatic therapy?

Somatic therapy is a body-centered approach that explores how stress, emotions, trauma, and protective responses can be held or expressed through the nervous system and physical experience. Rather than focusing only on thoughts or stories, it may include attention to sensation, breath, grounding, movement, and present-moment awareness. The goal is often greater regulation, self-understanding, and choice in how you respond to difficult experiences.
