somatic psychotherapy

Our brains are beautiful and so is cognitive functioning, but the latest neuroscience is showing us that without including the body healing is incomplete. In somatic psychotherapy, we offer mind-body approaches for whole-person healing. We primarily offer that through Brainspotting. We also incorporate tenets from mindfulness, somatic experiencing, internal family systems, polyvagal therapy, and neuroscience.

Brainspotting is a body-based therapy that assist in reprocessing trauma, emotions, stories and sensations in the subcortical region of the brain and in the body. Brainspotting may be done in a traditional 45-minute session and is also offered through intensives that can be up to 4-5 hours.

Through these approaches, we assist your nervous system through stressed states returning to homeostasis, or balance.
