Stress, Anxiety & Trauma

Stress responses, like flight, fight or freeze, are supposed to last only for a short time. If they are felt for longer or more frequently, they can lead to mental health problems and physical issues.

Getting to the root of what causes your stress and anxiety, and releasing the traumas that have been held in your body, is essential to restoring mental and physical well-being.

Somatic therapy provides a powerful approach to addressing stress, anxiety, and trauma by integrating the mind-body connection.

By working directly with the body's sensations, nervous system responses, and the physical manifestations of emotional distress, you activate the body's natural healing response, promoting emotional release and physical relaxation.

This process helps to calm the nervous system, allowing stored tension and anxiety to dissipate, thus creating a profound sense of relief.

By acknowledging and processing these emotions through the body, individuals often experience a decrease in physical symptoms such as tightness or discomfort, leading to improved emotional regulation and a greater sense of safety within their bodies.

In essence, somatic approaches empower you to reconnect with your body, fostering healing and resilience as you navigate the complexities of stress and trauma.
