Somatic Therapy in California
Therapy to Heal the Mind-Body Connection
Has traditional talk therapy left you unimpressed? That might be because your emotional health doesn’t just happen in your brain. Your mind and body — from your nervous system to your muscles to your hormones — are intimately linked.
Somatic therapy can help you use the mind-body connection to heal holistically.
Our somatic therapists can help you feel more safe and relaxed in your body. You’ll learn to regulate your nervous system, and respond effectively to triggers that come up in your daily life. And ultimately, you’ll be able to get back to the things you care about most — whether that’s family, self-care, career, or just living your life.
At Stella Nova, we offer high quality somatic therapy online for adults throughout California, with fees starting at $160 per session.
Somatic Therapy Can Help You:
✦ Reduce or eliminate intrusive thoughts of a painful or traumatic event
✦ Stop feeling constantly keyed up, tense, or on guard
✦ Feel more in control when a trigger comes up in daily life
✦ Get comfortable and grounded in your body
✦ Set your own limits or boundaries with others
✦ Manage physical symptoms like pain or digestive issues
✦ Learn to feel safe & emotionally regulated for the first time
What Problems Can Somatic Therapy Treat?
Somatic therapy is often thought of as a trauma treatment — and it’s highly effective at that.
It’s also great fit for many problems related to the mind-body connection, such as:
Trauma and PTSD
Burnout and depression
Anxiety and panic
Complicated grief
Self esteem and relational issues
Chronic pain and illness
Meet Sage, Somatic Therapist
Traumatic or painful experiences can leave us disconnected from our bodies. That can serve a protective function, but it can also make it very hard to regulate our emotions.
As a somatic therapist, I can help guide you towards aligning your mind and body. It’s normal to experience overwhelming emotions at times, but somatic therapy can help you respond to those feelings more intentionally. As you learn to regulate your nervous system, you’ll experience more moments of feeling grounded, calm, and safe in your body.
Over time, this creates opportunities not just to cope, but to heal.
