Do you ever notice the physical impact that your emotions have on your body? Chronic stress or anxious thoughts often lead to stomach upset, heart racing, tension in shoulders. Depression can lead to physical exhaustion and aching joints. I ask you to consider these connections in our sessions and provide you will somatic tools to improve your physical and emotional symptoms. This is done at your comfortability and through simple somatic exercises such as breath work, small movements, stretching.
If Somatic therapy isn't for you, thats okay! Additional methods I use include CBT, MI, DBT & more.
