Therapists in Fort Lauderdale, FL

I am a Somatic Psychotherapist with a focus on helping to build resilience and regulation in ones nervous system. This allows for an organic shift in dealing with life’s stresses whether it comes from current stressors or from traumas of the past as far back as utero (Developmental Trauma). This positively impacts emotional, physical and spiritual well being. I like working with adults who are in transition, who are struggling in their relationship, and/or who continue to have the after effects of traumas in their lives. It is my belief that wounding begins in relationship and therefore needs to be healed in relationship.

Welcome, I'm Josie Ashton, a trauma therapist and a blue print for healing builder. I bring a unique perspective to the process of healing and trauma resolution. My guiding principle is "You have to feel it in order to heal it." I firmly believe that ignoring trauma can be detrimental, impacting various aspects of our lives, including friendships, intimate relationships, and professional endeavors. I want to assure you that trauma can be processed and effectively treated when equipped with the right tools and resources. My approach is centered on you, the client. Your needs and goals are my top priority.

I would be honored to provide a space just for you to share openly and honestly, and to get connected to your authentic self. Together, we will unpack the roots of your presenting challenges and life patterns to create lasting change.

Does it feel like you wear a mask in everyday life? As if there’s a disconnect between your true self and what you show to others. Maybe you feel disconnected from yourself and uncertain what it even means to feel connected to your body and aligned with your soul. Do you want to be guided by your intuition but feel it’s clouded by fear and shame? Does a judgmental inner critic control most of your thoughts and you don’t know how to stop it? You have awareness that things need to change and now it’s exploring how to make these changes. As Thich Nhat Hanh said, “Mindfulness must be engaged. Once there is seeing, there must be acting."

If you are looking to heal your relationship with yourself or others, seeking recovery from sexual compulsivity and addictive disorders or interested in resolving family of origin trauma, I can help.

I believe that true emotional healing comes through holistically tending to the body, mind and spirit. I offer full range psychotherapy services that I combine with several Somatic or body-based techniques. As a registered Yoga Teacher, I have been known to incorporate meditation, breathing or physical postures in my sessions. The research shows that trauma, grief and the after effects of some of our experiences are stored in our bodies. What better way to heal or release them from our bodies than to intentionally use body exercises to move this harmful trauma energy out for good. I work with new mothers, children and families.
