Somatic Counselling at Peak Experience Counselling

Woman Jumping in Studio

At Peak Experience Counselling, we are able to provide options to how we approach healing. Part of a counsellor's work is to get to know you and present options for healing that are going to fit specifically to your needs.

 

Sometimes, talk therapy isn't the most effective fit and so we offer other options, such as Neurofeedback with Danielle Buchanan; EMDR  with Paula Lazzuri, Nicole Carothers and Kelsey Wright; Psycho Drama with Paula Lazzuri, and Somatic based therapies with with Nicole, Paula, Jen and Andrea.

 

Somatic therapies focus on the connection between emotions and our physical self. Somatic therapy counsellors integrate mind-body exercises and other physical techniques to help move and release stuck emotional experiences or trauma.

​

The best selling book "The Body Keeps the Score" by Bessel van der Kolk, highlights that "if the memory of trauma is encoded in our senses, in muscle tension, and in anxiety, then the body must also be involved in the healing process.” “Once you start approaching your body with curiosity rather than with fear, everything shifts.”
 

​Somatic based therapies are often utilized for supporting those struggling with:

  • trauma (Big T or little t)

  • anxiety

  • grief and loss

  • depression

  • fear of vulnerability

  • self esteem
