Somatic therapy is an innovative and holistic approach to mental health and well-being that recognizes the intricate connection between the mind and body. It is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on the physiological experiences and bodily sensations of an individual to address and heal emotional and psychological traumas. By understanding how the body stores and processes emotions, somatic therapy empowers individuals to release tension, restore balance, and achieve a deeper level of self-awareness. Our bodies, aka our nervous system, perceives the world around us before we cognitively become aware of what we’re experiencing, somatic therapy allows you to understand how your body is holding your past and how it’s interpreting the present.
