Somatic Therapy in Stoke on Trent
Somatic Therapy in Stoke-on-Trent
Support for overwhelmed, burnt-out or trauma-affected people who want to feel safer, calmer and more connected in their bodies.
I offer 1-1 somatic therapy sessions and small group experiences to help you release held stress, process difficult experiences and rediscover a sense of aliveness and ease.
You might be looking for support if you feel:
constantly anxious or on edge
emotionally overwhelmed or shut down
exhausted from coping
disconnected from your body or sense of self
living with persistent tension or pain
ready for deeper change than talking alone has provided
Somatic Therapy
Somatic therapy is a body-based approach that works with the nervous system as well as the mind.
Stress, trauma and life experiences are often held in physical tension, emotional patterns and habitual ways of moving or relating. Through gentle therapeutic exploration we begin to support new experiences of safety, regulation and vitality.
Sessions may include movement, breathwork, therapeutic touch and deeper myofascial release where appropriate. Each session is responsive to your needs and unfolds at a pace that feels supportive.
Most people begin with an introductory conversation or a small group experience before moving into a short therapeutic process of regular sessions.
Ways to work with me:
1-1 Somatic Therapy Sessions
Individual sessions from my private practice space in Stoke-on-Trent. A supportive space to work gently and deeply with stress, trauma and emotional overwhelm.
Small Therapeutic Breathwork Groups
Intimate group sessions to support nervous system regulation, emotional release and embodied awareness.
Monthly Somatic Movement & Whitmore Lakes Breathwork Events
Opportunities to explore this work in a supportive community environment.
