Somatic Therapists in Fort Worth, TX
I support my clients in mindset work, core belief work, healing emotions from the past, and somatic processes.
As a registered nurse and life coach, I support clients to reach life and wellness goals, be it health, personal, work, or other. Many types of coaching try to reach goals by focusing on behavioral changes alone and aim to over-ride parts of ourselves with will-power. In this practice, I will support you to release patterns and make shifts in a gentle way that takes a lens of self-compassion and self-understanding. Taking this lens is both more enjoyable, as you are able to release tensions and outdated patterns, and it is also far more effective for creating lasting results.

I aim to provide a non-judgemental and safe place for clients to work in while being my genuine and authentic self and I encourage you to do the same.

I am a trained trauma therapist offering modalities including Brainspotting, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Polyvagal theory, and Somatic therapies.
Many people share in therapy about difficulties that keep resurfacing, no matter how much they work to unravel them. This often occurs because trauma and stress hide in the part of our brain that is outside of the ability to cognitively reframe our pain. My therapeutic approach is integrative, healing what’s really underneath your unhappiness. These approaches go beyond the typical cognitive approaches by harnessing your body's intelligence for healing. You deserve to be happy (again) and live contentedly. See my website for more on Brainspotting and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART).

I am in my advanced year of becoming a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, and I specialize in the holistic treatment of grief and grief-related trauma, PTSD, complex PTSD due to childhood trauma, anxiety, and depression.
Do you sometimes feel as though you are trapped in your own head? Do you feel disconnected from the present moment, unable to experience profound connection, relaxation, and joy because you are dwelling on the past or worried about the future? Have you “worked through” difficult past experiences in traditional therapy, but still feel as though your problems continue to linger? If you found yourself nodding while reading any or all of these questions, you may have unresolved trauma affecting your nervous system. Using specialized techniques that target the nervous system, I can help you release that trauma once and for all.

Somatic Therapists
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.
