Somatic psychotherapy is a holistic approach to mental health that focuses on the connection between mind and body. Rather than focusing solely on thoughts and feelings, somatic psychotherapy integrates body-based techniques, like breathwork, movement, and mindfulness, to help people process trauma, reduce anxiety, and build greater resilience. For individuals who feel traditional talk therapy has been ineffective or they’ve hit a plateau, somatic psychotherapy can offer a more embodied path to healing by supporting the nervous system toward greater regulation and safety. It is especially effective for people navigating symptoms of PTSD, chronic stress, dissociation, or unresolved trauma.

If you're located in Georgia (GA), Washington, DC, or Maryland (MD), and are exploring trauma-informed therapy options, somatic psychotherapy may be for you. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, depression, or the aftereffects of childhood trauma, this approach offers compassionate support that honors both your emotional and physical experience.
