Somatic Therapists in Fredericton, NB
My practice is integrative and I draw from modalities in Trauma Therapy, Somatic Therapy, Sex Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to tailor an approach that meets you where you are.
I believe in a holistic approach to wellness and am committed to creating a welcoming and non-judgmental environment. I want to ensure clients feel they can show up as their authentic selves and feel safe, seen, heard, and valued. I work collaboratively with clients to capitalize on their inherent strengths and skills, and to cultivate greater feelings of connection, authenticity, and healing in their lives. While I bring knowledge and expertise in certain areas, I know that clients are the experts of their own lives and experiences. I strive to honour and value this knowledge as we work together.

Please contact to schedule an appointment with Nicole James RSW - Extensive training in Integrative Somatic Therapy Practice (TM), certified in Restorative Yoga (RYS 200hr) & Thai Massage.
When life introduces us to complex experiences and emotions, we may find difficulty in processing the residual trauma or feel stuck in it. We may even notice a limitation to talk therapy, as our experiences with trauma may be difficult to put into words, however, an impact can still be felt by the nervous system, even through memories. Using Integrative Somatic Therapy Practice (TM), we move through what is not only conscious, but also explore what is held by the unconscious mind. This approach to somatic therapy deepens our understanding of how the body holds trauma, bringing awareness before allowing release.

Hi, I'm Alex! I'm experienced in helping other adults who feel stuck in life. Stuckness might stem from issues within the family or cultural environment, a loss of purpose, significant life transitions, chronic stress, difficulties feeling secure in self, creating or grieving meaningful relationships, or recurring intense emotions/sensations such as anxiety, anger, or sadness (that can feel debilitating or confusing). I also often work with folks who've tried cognitive talk therapies before and want a different approach, those who've been told they're "very aware" but don't know what to do with that, and fellow creatives & helpers.

Somatic Counsellors
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
