somatic counselling & embodied healing
remembering the way home to yourself through somatic integration
at embodied roots, I offer integrative, somatic counselling. my work is compassion-based, shame and trauma-informed, with a focus on bringing the body's voice into the room, alongside the verbal story, for deep emotional healing.
in somatic therapy, we make room for what is here in the present moment, where our rich inner wisdom becomes easier to access as we slow down and make space for the inner experience to unfold through mind, body, and spirit. i draw on a variety of therapeutic approaches, all held together by an underlying thread of somatic awareness and body-based healing.
what we might work with
every person's story is different. some of the threads people often bring:
- feelings that are hard to name, or hard to put into words
- growing up where emotions were not talked about
- overwhelm, shutdown, or swinging between the two
- worth that feels tied to productivity
- shame that sits underneath it all
- talk therapy that helped, but did not reach the body
how I work
we slow down together and listen to what is happening beneath the surface. alongside conversation, we may notice sensations, emotions, thoughts, impulses, and patterns as they arise. we might explore the ways your body has learned to protect you, the parts of you that are working hard to keep you safe, and the beliefs or patterns that may no longer be serving you in the same way they once did.
my approach is shaped by both professional training and lived experience, alongside an ongoing commitment to my own personal growth and learning. embodied practice has been such a meaningful catalyst throughout my healing journey, and it now lives at the very heart of what i offer in the counselling space.

is counselling right for me?
this work might be for you if you're curious about your inner world, willing to slow down, and open to hearing what your body has to say alongside your story. especially if you've been wondering how the past still lives in your present, or you notice the same patterns returning, or there's something tender underneath that you can't quite name, or, you're simply tired of carrying it all on your own.
