Hello, I am a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP). Many of us experience symptoms of unresolved trauma and/or chronic stress and want to feel more ease and connection while experiencing a greater sense of safety and belonging. Many of us want to live into our full potential and/or authentic selves. Somatic Experiencing (SE) offers a gentle pathway to re-inhabiting or connecting to our bodies at a safe pace to address symptoms that may include anxiety, overwhelm, feeling stuck, fatigue, insomnia, numbness, fear/hyper-vigilance, anger, chronic health issue, and/or pain.
My intention is offer a safe and settled presence while offering guidance that uses gentle Somatic Experiencing practices and techniques. This approach helps you connect with your body's innate intelligence and language to renegotiate and resolve stress and trauma stored in the body. This work is collaborative, empowering, and uses consent-based practices.
This is body-based work and not psychotherapy. If you are looking for psychotherapy, please reach out to a Licensed Mental Health Counselor or professional working towards licensure and under supervision.
I work as a licensed, non-licensed Psychotherapist in the state of Vermont.
