Modalities
Mindfulness
To Cultivate presence, awareness & Embodiment
Mindfulness is the practice of paying attention to one’s direct experience in the present moment while maintaining a sense of openness, curiosity, and willingness to be with your experience, just as it is. In short, Mindfulness allows us to connect with ourselves more honestly and without distraction, thus allowing us to get to know what is real and true in our lives.
MINDFULNESS IS A PRACTICE OF SHOWING UP FOR LIFE, ONE MOMENT, ONE BREATH AT A TIME.
Mindfulness is also a practice that can help calm and regulate the nervous system, reduce stress, bring more joy and delight into your life, regulate emotions, and cultivate more capacity to be present with the every changing tides of life.
Somatic Therapy:
To heal trauma, cultivate resilience and ease, and help regulate your nervous system
Somatic Experiencing
Drawing from the therapeutic modality of Somatic Experiencing (SE), a somatic approach to counseling and coaching can support the cultivation of embodied awareness, while simultaneously helping the clients resolve toxic stress patterns in the nervous system resulting from trauma.
Different than traditional talk therapy, somatic counseling, and specifically SE, get at the root of trauma by restoring the nervous system to optimal health and function by helping you unhook from repetitive traumatic responses…allowing you to be fully present and available for life. It also helps you understand how common coping strategies, which may no longer be helpful, were tools you developed during traumatic experiences to help keep yourself safe, and that you can develop new, more skillful tools to create a life of resilience and ease.
Reclaim your safety, sensuality, and vitality
Full Embodiment:
Somatic Sexual Trauma Recovery
Full Embodiment (FE) is how we restore healing and safety after sexual and intimate trauma.
Developed by Ariel Giaretto, Full Embodiment — also known as Somatic Sexual Healing — is a body-based modality that works directly with the nervous system, the breath, and somatic awareness to heal the places where trauma lives that talking simply cannot reach. Where Somatic Experiencing maps the nervous system's survival responses, Full Embodiment goes further — into the specific territory of sexuality, sensuality, desire, and the body's relationship with pleasure and safety.
Many women arrive here having done years of good therapeutic work and still finding that something in the body hasn't caught up. A guardedness, a sense of disconnection, a lack of desire, and often that sense of “I’m fine being alone,” or a sense that the most alive, sensual parts of themselves are still trapped. This work is for that.
Full Embodiment can help you release the body's held shame, fear, and protective armoring around sexuality and intimacy, reconnect with sensation, desire, and pleasure as a safe experience, reclaim your body as a source of wisdom and aliveness rather than danger or disconnection, and come home to yourself — fully!
