Why Talking About Trauma Isn’t Always Enough
Somatic Psychotherapy is an innovative therapeutic approach that integrates the mind and body to address trauma and emotional distress. By focusing on bodily sensations and movement, this method helps clients access and process deeply held emotional experiences that are often stored in the nervous system. Drawing on techniques from Inner Child Work, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Shadow Work, it fosters a reconnection with one's wholeness and cultivates nervous system regulation. This embodied healing allows individuals to develop greater self-trust, resilience, and inner safety, facilitating profound and lasting transformation.
Anxiety and the nervous system.
Anxiety and the nervous system are closely interconnected. The nervous system plays a vital role in regulating our body's response to stress and perceived threats. When we experience anxiety, it often involves an overactive or dysregulated nervous system response. Understanding this connection can provide insights into how anxiety manifests and how to manage it effectively.
