SOMATIC PSYCHOTHERAPY SESSION
Release Stress and Tension That’s Been Building for Years
TRANSFORMATIVE SOMATIC SESSION
“A Practical Path to Feeling Better—Body, Mind & Nervous System”
What is Somatic Psychotherapy and how it works?
A Gentle, Effective Body-Based Approach to Healing & Emotional Well-Being
Most traditional psychotherapy focuses on talking through thoughts, memories, and emotions. While this approach can be very helpful, many people—especially those carrying long-term stress, trauma, or chronic tension—find that talking alone doesn’t create the deep change they’re looking for.
Somatic (body-based) psychotherapy works differently.
It recognises that the nervous system, body, and mind are inseparable. Stress, trauma, and old patterns don’t just live in our thoughts—they live in our muscles, breath, posture, and physiology.
Where regular psychotherapy asks, “What are you thinking or feeling?”
Somatic psychotherapy also asks, “How is your body holding this?”
Through gentle, guided body awareness, breath work, grounding, and nervous system regulation techniques, somatic psychotherapy helps release stored tension and patterns that talking alone can’t reach.
What is Somatic Psychotherapy good for?
This approach is ideal for people who have:
Tried traditional therapy but didn’t feel lasting change
Ongoing stress, anxiety, or overwhelm
Chronic muscle tension, fatigue, or unexplained physical symptoms
A sense of “being stuck” even though they understand their patterns
A desire for deeper healing that feels safe, practical, and embodied
Somatic psychotherapy helps you shift from understanding your story to actually feeling different in your daily life—calmer, clearer, more grounded, and more like yourself.
“I can support you with finding clarity and vitality again.”
Why people choose Somatic Psychotherapy?
People choose somatic psychotherapy because they want real, lasting change—especially when talking therapies haven’t been enough. This approach works directly with the nervous system and the body, helping release the stress, tension, and emotional patterns that keep people feeling stuck. It’s a gentle, effective way to move from simply understanding what’s wrong to actually feeling calmer, clearer, more regulated, and more in control of your life.
Professional profile
I’ve been immersed in somatic therapies since I was 18—not only studying them, but living them. My own journey has taken me through profound personal transformation, and these body-based approaches have guided me every step of the way. Somatic therapy isn’t just a modality I use; it’s a philosophy deeply woven into how I understand stress, trauma, healing, and human potential.
Professionally, I bring a strong therapeutic foundation, including:
Diploma of Counselling — The Institute of Applied Psychology (ACA registered)

Over the years, I’ve supported clients through stress, trauma, relationship challenges, chronic tension, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm. I truly enjoy this work and feel deeply fulfilled watching positive changes unfold in someone’s life. It’s an honour to witness people become more grounded, more confident, and more connected to themselves.
I genuinely believe that most people can benefit from the support of a therapist at different stages of life—when challenges arise, when goals shift, when life asks us to grow or change direction. Having a compassionate space to land during these times can make all the difference.
My approach is warm, grounded, and client-centered. I offer a safe, supportive environment where you are met with compassion, not judgment.
I help you reconnect with your body, regulate your nervous system, and build emotional resilience—at a pace that feels right for you. Together, we gently explore what has been keeping you stuck and create space for lasting change.
