The word authentic means pure, genuine, real.

Psychosomatic therapy helps you to be your authentic self, which is real, pure and free from fear, limiting core-beliefs or childhood conditioning.

In this form of therapy, the body plays a central role.

We tend to focus on what our mind tells us, but our bodies store important information about the positive and negative experiences from our past. We often carry these with us in an unconscious way, not realizing how much they influence our behaviour and the choices we make in life.

Psychosomatic therapy makes this unconsciously carried negative charge visible again. Working with the body in an attentive way, enables us to access what has been repressed and what wants to be expressed.

There may be painful feelings of anger, shame, fear and grief but equally feelings of love, joy and spontaneity that are buried under numbness, disconnection or ‘body armouring’. By burying all of this we learned to adapt and navigate life with the best strategies available to us, but we may have cut off our true ‘aliveness’ and carry patterns of behaviour that no longer serve us. 

Psychosomatic therapy helps to understand the impact of certain life events and how to clear tensions held around those. So that you are free to make life-choices that are unhindered by fear and come from your authentic self and your Untamed Heart.

My approach.

I take a non-diagnostic approach, but rather focus on each client’s individual story. The work I do is trauma-sensitive and always held in a safe space.

Relating to the theme you wish to work on, I pay attention to where the trauma-charge is still active and felt as tension in the body- , mind and emotional landscape. To process these tensions, I work with techniques such as breathing, physical movement, stress-release or grounding. 

EFT is complementary to the healing strategy of psychosomatic therapy. Both are aimed at freeing up your full potential and I use techniques from both methods to support your process in the best way possible.

Themes I work with include: 

Trauma, Abuse, Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Stress Management, Depression, LGBTQ+, Bereavement Counselling, Separation/Divorce, Self Esteem Issues, Illness.

I would like to hear your story.

I’m keen to meet you and hear what you would like to work on. I offer a free 20 minute online session, so that we can meet and see if psychosomatic therapy can help you take that next step in your personal growth.
