Feel more comfortable and at home in your body and on the planet
Welcome to a world of healing options for health and embodiment. My intention is to support individuals, couples and families (including children and babies) by exploring and healing early emotional and physical patterns that may be keeping us from truly feeling connected to our bodies, others and the planet.
I offer an integrative approach to healing by supporting the health and resources that already exist in each person’s system. I want to support you in taking the time to embrace and allow all parts of your body, mind and spirit to come back into a place of balance and integration.
What you may experience when you work with me:
Understand and learn to move forward from overwhelming experiences
Have greater access to support and resources
Find your own pace and potency
Strengthen your sense of safety and calmness
Gently release and re-pattern past shock and trauma
Gain greater body awareness
Get the sense of being seen, heard and met on a deeper level
Experience better relationships and connections with self and others
Re-pattern and create healthy family dynamics
Nourish your bodies
Rebound from disappointment and loss
“In Shannon’s capable hands, Somatic Therapy is incredibly effective. The work is powerful and for me, it has created huge shifts in deeply programmed patterns of behavior in a relatively short time.”
Experiencing Embodied Therapies
Embodied therapies essentially work to integrate and deepen your connection with all parts of you – Body, Mind, and Spirit. These therapies allow your body time and space to be a part of the conversation.
Our bodies typically move at a slower pace then our minds so we can easily override or not listen to what our bodies are saying.
Embodied Therapies slow you down and allow you to take the time to notice body sensations, movements and breathing. What regions of your body are tight and constricted? What areas are more open and relaxed?
When you start to have an open dialogue with the body, when you see what your body is trying to say and what support and resources your body wants, you allow those constricted areas to come back into spaciousness and flow, and you bring more awareness and options into your present life.
The three therapies that I use in my practice are Somatic Experiencing, Biodynamic Craniosacral and Attachment Therapy (Pre and Perinatal Psychology). These therapies create a very safe and powerful container to support the nervous system and fluid systems in our body to release stress, trauma and early imprints.
