Somatic Therapy Introduction

What Is Somatic Therapy

What Is Somatic Therapy

What Is Somatic Therapy

Created by Peter Levine, Ph.D., this therapy, known as somatic experiencing, operates on the principle that trauma can become trapped in the body. It integrates elements of family therapy and psychotherapy, and is also accessible through online therapy formats.

What Is Somatic Therapy

What Is Somatic Therapy

Emotional Regulation is crucial in family therapy, especially when addressing issues stemming from early attachment trauma or prenatal and birth trauma. These experiences can lead to challenges such as depression and anxiety, which are often explored in psychotherapy. Setting healthy boundaries and fostering self-expression are important components of the therapeutic process. Many individuals may also face co-regulation difficulties, which can be effectively addressed through somatic experiencing with trained somatic therapists. Online therapy and counselling therapy options provide accessible avenues for individuals to seek help and improve their overall emotional well-being.

Freedom From Trauma

Developing Your Focus

Developing Your Focus

Trauma is stored in somatic memory and expressed as changes in the biological stress response. In therapy, including family therapy and online therapy options, psychotherapy techniques such as somatic experiencing can help individuals process these traumatic memories effectively.

Developing Your Focus

Developing Your Focus

Developing Your Focus

Rather than just talk about their emotions, somatic therapists help patients in family therapy to focus on their underlying physical sensations. This can be particularly effective in online therapy and psychotherapy, where the integration of somatic experiencing plays a vital role in healing.

Relational & Process Based Therapy

What Is Relationally Focused Therapy AEDP

AEDP is a contemporary therapeutic approach that integrates principles from various evidence-based therapies, including family therapy and somatic experiencing, while focusing on the relational dynamics between therapist and client. This method recognizes that our relationships and interactions are pivotal for our mental health and overall well-being, whether in traditional psychotherapy settings or through online therapy.

Who Is This Therapy for

At its core, AEDP emphasizes the significance of the therapeutic relationship as a fundamental healing tool, much like in family therapy practices. It draws from cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and emotion-focused traditions but uniquely centers around the processes that unfold within the therapeutic relationship during psychotherapy sessions. This includes how clients develop relationships, navigate interpersonal dynamics, and how these patterns influence their experiences and behavior, whether in person or through online therapy. Additionally, elements of somatic experiencing may enhance how these relational dynamics are understood.

Freedom From Trauma

Therapists employing AEDP aim to create a safe, empathetic, and genuine connection, fostering an environment where clients can explore and understand their relational patterns and emotional processes. This approach is particularly valuable in family therapy and online therapy settings, as it meets clients where they are, taking into account their unique context. By integrating elements of psychotherapy and somatic experiencing, therapists work collaboratively with clients to promote growth and change.

The First and only goal of Trauma Therapy is Improving the Quality of Life of the client NOT to revisit Traumatic memories and Pasts.

Often traumatised people either feel nothing or they feel rage, and often the rage is expressed in inappropriate ways. With beginning to get a sense of what healthy aggression feels like, the extremes of numbness and rage can begin to give way to healthier middle ground.
