RECOGNITION

When your system has been carrying too much

Anxiety, shutdown, overwhelm, chronic tension, persistent physical symptoms or repeating patterns can be signs that the nervous system has remained in survival mode for too long.

THE APPROACH

Support that begins with the body

Through somatic, trauma informed psychotherapy, we work gently with the body and nervous system. The aim is not simply to understand what happened, but to help your system release what it has been carrying.
