For anyone seeking deeper connection with themselves and others.
Everything you need is already within you—this work is about gently returning into that inner knowing. This space is here to allow you to explore your full self, with support, care and attunement by your side.
A body-oriented approach to emotional, psychological and physical wellbeing that supports you to understand and shift patterns from the inside out. While talk therapy focuses on behaviours and thoughts, somatic explores what is happening in your body to support greater self-awareness.
-
This approach combines narrative (talking) with somatic (body). Moving from solely talking and bringing awareness into what is happening in your body through physical sensations, breath, movement and more. Sessions are co-created and client led – meaning that they evolve depending on what you bring or comes up, moving at a pace that is right for you.
-
A guided space to explore how you show up in intimacy, sexuality, and relationships. Using body-based tools, we work to understand, shift patterns, deepen connection, and support authentic relating.
This is for individuals or couples.
-
Looking for a practitioner who truly understands queer identity and diverse ways of relating? Somatic Connect offers a space where you’re seen, supported, and understood—grounded in ongoing learning and deep respect for LGBTQ+ experience.
-
Somatic Connect welcomes all body's, genders, relationship styles, sexual orientations. Neurodivergent, SW, kinky — vanilla people and anything in between or outside of labels and binaries here is a place for you.
