Somatic therapy helps us reconnect with our essential being. It takes the emphasis off our minds and moves us into a richer, more organic, field of knowing: our bodies. Our bodies were our original home, before social conditioning taught us to look outwards or ‘use our head.’ As babies (like my anesthetized daughter), we instinctively yearned for regulation through breath, touch, and presence. Reclaiming that connection is how we return to ourselves.

My clients are survivors. They often have more strength than they know. And for many of them, their nervous systems are burning out. They have been conditioned to be hypervigilant, over-performers, or chronically disassociated from the signals of their bodies – because they *had* to be that way.

I have told more than one client: you actually *are* that strong, and I want you to live in a world where you do not have to be.
