You’ve tried many approaches to feeling “better” but you’re therapy-ed out!
If talk therapy has you looking at the clock and secretly rolling your eyes…
you’re sick of family or friends telling you to get out of your head or…
you’re tired of dragging your body around like it’s a stranger…then it’s time for a fresh approach!
Your body is tense and you feel disconnected, like you’re blocked off from your full self.
The stress stored in your body is palpable. You want to move it out but don’t know how.
Your body is telling you that something is missing!
That ‘something’ could be movement, gestures, breath, art, music, role play, meditation—some form of creative expression that gets you out of your head and INTO YOUR BODY.
Body awareness is the gateway to healing at a deep level.
Body awareness is your birthright.

The body holds an often-untapped reservoir of wisdom, strength, and resilience. With its guidance, we can transform what feels like a moment of crisis into a moment of rebirth and creation.
The thing is that as long as we’re just talking, we remain stuck in the conscious part of our brain most likely repeating what we already know (or think we know) and sticking to familiar and habituated thought patterns.
Same shit, different day (or different therapy session).
Your soul is calling for: ease in your body, openness to life, and clarity in your choices!
If you dream of taking up space in the world unapologetically, releasing old blocks, knowing who you are and what you want out of life, then Somatic Therapy (aka Body Psychotherapy) and Dance/Movement Therapy offer all this and more.

Somatic Therapy and Dance/Movement Therapy are very different from talk therapy and other therapy modalities. Here’s why…
Somatic Therapy or Body Psychotherapy is a mind-body therapy that harnesses the great depth of information, wisdom, and resilience that lies below the surface, within the body. This provides a holistic tool-set for unwinding old patterns, healing the nervous system, and developing a secure sense of self. When we know who we are in our bodies, we have a compass that guides our decision-making, and we can navigate life’s challenges with ease and confidence.
Dance/Movement Therapy, brings in the additional element of creative self-expression through movement. Mindful movement promotes emotional, cognitive, and physical integration, allowing us to find an authentic sense of self and explore new ways of being in the world.
Finally, a therapy that works for YOU!
