Somatic Experiencing Support
Nervous system restoration, embodied connection and culturally grounded care
What is Somatic Experiencing?
Somatic Experiencing is a body-centered approach that supports your natural capacity to settle, restore, and feel more connected to yourself. This method focuses on the nervous system and the way your body responds to stress, overwhelm, or long-held tension. Sessions create space for noticing sensation, slowing down, and reconnecting with internal cues so you can move through life with more clarity and ease.
My approach integrates Somatic Experiencing International training at the Beginner Level with my background in ecotherapy, yoga, and culturally rooted embodiment work. As a Black queer woman and first-generation healer, I center identity, lineage, lived experience, and nervous system education in a way that is accessible and grounded.
These sessions are not a replacement for therapy or medical care. They serve as supplemental, body-based support that can enhance the work you are already doing for your wellbeing.
Who is it for?
People often seek this work when they want to understand their nervous system or reconnect with their body.
This support is helpful for:
• navigating chronic stress
• building internal safety
• reconnecting with pleasure, rest, and ease
• exploring emotional experiences through the body
• increasing capacity for boundaries and presence
• supporting identity exploration and belonging
• settling after periods of transition, grief, or life change
My work is especially supportive for Black women, queer folx, caregivers, first-generation professionals, and anyone holding layered identities or cultural pressures.
What You Can Expect in a Session
Somatic Experiencing sessions are slow-paced, collaborative, and rooted in your capacity for the day.
Together we explore:
• internal sensations or edges of tension
• breath and grounding practices
• where the body wants more space or softness
• cycles of activation and return
• gentle movement
• the experience of rest, ease, or curiosity
• how your body communicates boundaries or needs
You are not required to retell difficult memories. Your body leads the pace. You choose what feels right to explore.
