Somatics
Somatics is the experience of being in conversation with the body, an intentional practice of embodiment. Somatic therapy evolved as a way to treat PTSD and chronic stress, but practices of what we now call somatics began long before Western psychology. Using somatics in session might include breathwork, therapeutic yoga, visualization, sensation exploration, and/or conscious movement. I also bring somatics into the therapy room by keeping myself in my body and encouraging you to stay present in yours.
