Somatic Therapy is releational healing. Are you always the tough one, the one that’s “fine”, the one that can only let your emotions out when you’re alone or maybe you feel you are a burden if you asked for support? You probably learned that support wasn’t safe or maybe it wasn’t there at all. So you figured out how to do it all by yourself. You got tough, maybe ambitious and pushed through life. But now, you’re exhausted. You don’t sleep well or you find yourself getting irritated or stressed out about the little things. Maybe you just feel stuck or like life is just going to be “good enough”. The truth is we are social creatures and we need each other. Not just in a “it would be nice” kind of way. But in a literal survival way. Babies who aren’t touched don’t survive. We need another person to be with us to heal. You were never meant to do this alone. To push through. Somatic therapy works because your body finally gets to feel what it has been needing to heal - another person who is present, attuned and caring. Let me know if this sounds like you in the comments. And if you’re looking for support - we work online and in Portland, Oregon
