Is Somatic Therapy for you?

trauma-therapy-nassau-county

You feel tense, panicky, insecure, and uncomfortable in your skin.

Your body may be holding some messages that make you feel stuck, irritable or insecure. You may be aware of some of the messages you hold or you may have a nagging sense that something feels off. 

Your body tells a tale that goes deeper than the spoken word

It is a  powerful communicator.

Your story may present itself as negative thoughts, hunched back, body tension, flashbacks or memories that often visit. Being able to live fully in your body is about feeling your breath, connecting with the present moment, and feeling a sense of inner safety as you navigate life's experiences. 

Help your body access its innate strength and stability from the inside-out

In Somatic Psychotherapy you will:

  • Learn the science on how and why your body learned to hold tension, beliefs or memories in your body.

  • Utilize somatic, mind-body focused skills, mindfulness, expressive arts and EMDR to identify and unleash the core of the hurt and discomfort.

  • Practice ways to embrace your body as a resource, and feel flexible, strong and comfortable in your own skin.

  • Connect deeper to your sense of self, allow loved ones in and connect authentically with world around you.

Our work focuses on healing your core, strengthening you from your roots up to your mind. 

“The single most important issue for traumatized people is to find a sense of safety in their own bodies.”— Bessel van der Kolk
