online Somatic counselling session
What to Expect in a Session
In our sessions, we move away from the idea of trauma as something to be “fixed” and instead look at it as a natural and useful response to the systems we live in and the unique history we have experienced. We acknowledge that collective and ancestral histories live within the body.
My goal is to create a space that is safe enough for these systemic patterns to be recognized and given the room to be experienced. This may show up on a spectrum, ranging from very subtle sensations to more obvious and strong experiences. Our work together is about finding choice and orientation within that experience.
To support this process, I use a weave of talking, movement, sounding, and breathing, as well as providing somatic guidance—such as grounding and orienting—to help you stay connected to yourself and your experience. When it is useful and welcomed, I also offer touch for settling and connection. Throughout the session, I stay present with your experience and your awareness, supporting you through the process of change as it unfolds.
My approach is rooted in radical, decolonial, and queer-feminist values. I am a body-positive, queer, trans, polyamorous, BDSM, and sex-worker friendly practitioner. Above all, consent is the absolute foundation of our work together.**
