1-on-1
“If your body could speak, what would it say?”
Our bodies hold our life stories. Everything we have experienced — the joys and the struggles — have been experienced by our bodies, are held in our bodies, and shape who we are.
By working on a somatic level, we become aware of our bodies in the here and now. By noticing and exploring our present-moment experience through sensation, breath, movement, and touch, we can relax the ideas about who we are and be with the immediate experience of ourself in the here and now. Through this awareness we can discover patterns, tensions, postures, impulses, etc that can give us information about our organization and how we relate to the world. Through the sensing body we get to know ourselves, and through the body we can discover new possibilities to bring into daily life.
By working with the arts, we have a safe container to hold the complexities and depth of our life experiences. Verbal language can only take us so far — sometimes we need to converse with our psyche and soul through imagery, poetry, or a dance. The arts help us speak the language of our deepest self, and offer the inherent healing force of creativity.
Through somatics and the arts we can explore areas in your life that are asking for attention, creativity, and new possibilities. As a somatic movement therapist, I support you by feeding the natural unfolding of your own creative wisdom with safe, nonjudgmental and loving presence.
