Individual Somatic Counselling Sessions…

I recently finished my Diploma of Applied Counselling and Psychology Specializing in Addictions and I am also certified in Somatic Experiencing. I am currently booking into the fall for individual sessions for Counselling and Somatic Experiencing. I work with them as a combination as healing happens through integrating our experiences through our nervous system.

Somatic Experiencing is the practice of healing trauma through the lens of the nervous system. Trauma is anything that is too much, too soon, or too fast. Our Nervous system reacts and often in our life and day to day we do not have time to complete the nervous systems response to the stimulus. Which then stays in our nervous system, contributing to feelings of overwhelm, stress, anxiety, and depression. Through Somatic Experiencing we give the nervous system space and time to move through the incomplete responses and integrate the experience. Supporting our nervous system in being able to regulate more easily, and helping us to feel more connected to self, grounded, and settled.

Each individual session is about an hour in length. We take our time to check in with you and your body, and allow your nervous system to guide us into the work that needs to be done.

These sessions are slower paced than traditional therapy, but that is the pace of healing, especially through a nervous system lens; by slowing way down.
