Feel the Unique Power of Somatic Experiencing

I offer a unique service to anyone experiencing strong negative emotions linked to poor life experiences. Cosomatic combines both Talk Therapy and Somatic Experiencing. This allows you to regulate your nervous system and recover from Trauma and Stress. You then live the happy and healthy life you deserve.

What is Somatic Experiencing?

Somatic Experiencing (SE) is the future of Trauma Recovery. It is a pioneering body based talking therapy.

It is a beautifully simple and powerful process, which is based on the idea that traumatic experiences can lead to dysfunction in the nervous system. Somatic Experiencing helps you notice bodily sensations resulting from unprocessed Trauma. Together we will work through these sensations, allowing you to process past trauma, then regulate your nervous system. Thereby letting go of past trauma stored within your body.

Releasing this stored trauma has significant physical and emotional health benefits. These include, better sleep, less stress and anxiety. Improved physical health, better emotional regulation, healthier relationships and so much more.

What is Trauma

Trauma is not just a single one off horrific event in the past. It can be a process of events experienced over many years. It can often be related to adverse childhood experiences, or poor attachment to caregivers. Basically, It is anything that overwhelms your capacity to cope in the present. Trauma is not just what happened to us, it is what we hold inside.

Experiencing traumatic events can harm a person’s sense of safety, sense of self, and ability to regulate emotions and navigate relationships.

Long after the traumatic event occurs, people with trauma can often feel shame, low self-worth, helplessness, powerlessness and intense fear. You live your life in the fight, flight or freeze response. Never fully relaxing, never being the person you can be.

Somatic Experiencing will allow you to let go of this stored Trauma and live your life with freedom.

How the Somatic Experiencing sessions work

Trauma isn’t just about the ‘big’ events..

It exists on a spectrum, shaping our behaviours in ways we don’t always realise.

Ever find yourself glued to your phone, thinking it’s just a habit. Ever find yourself reaching for that extra glass of wine? Becoming more angry, or withdrawing from others? The real driver might be a subtle sense of anxiety running in the background. Our unconscious patterns influence so much of our daily lives, and true healing begins when we bring them into our awareness.

In Somatic Experiencing, we go deeper into these hidden layers- helping you process and integrate past experiences so they no longer control your present. This is the power of Somatic Experiencing.

Release Trapped Energy

SE helps individuals access and process trauma that may be stored in the body, allowing for the release of tension, stress, and emotional blockages

By focusing on the body's natural healing mechanisms, SE helps restore balance to the nervous system, moving individuals from a state of hyper-arousal or dysregulation to a state of calm and resilience

Improve Relationships

As individuals become more emotionally regulated and self-aware, they are better equipped to form and maintain healthy relationships

Reduce Anxiety and Depression

By addressing the underlying causes of anxiety and depression, including trauma and stress, SE can help individuals experience greater emotional stability and well-being.

Somatic Experiencing is the Future of Trauma Recovery

Ever find yourself wanting to shut down a part of you that feels a bit too much? That anxious thought, that nagging guilt, that old fear that keeps resurfacing?⁣

Totally human.

⁣

But what if, instead of pushing it away… we got curious? What if those uncomfortable feelings weren’t problems to fix, but parts of us asking to be seen and understood?

Think of yourself like a big tree, and each branch represents a part of us. Some branches feel peaceful, others stir up pain. But every single one belongs.⁣

And when we stop cutting off the uncomfortable branches and start listening instead… something shifts. We begin to meet ourselves with compassion instead of resistance.⁣

That’s the work of Somatic Experiencing — not just knowing it in your head, but feeling it in your body. Learning how to be with what arises.

Client Testimonials

I've been single for ages due to some really bad previous experiences. I needed some help to get my confidence back and let go of what happened in my past relationships. David was really good. Listened to my experiences and really put things into perspective. He really understood me and help me process my past traumas. I feel so much better now thanks.

Sally Daley

I've experienced a lot of really negative experiences in my life, and I've really struggled at work and in my social life.I've been feeling angry and down for quite a while. I tried counselling and it did help but I was still holding onto these strong emotions. I thought I'd give this somatic work a go and god it was really good. Was very different but it really helped me let go of some older stuff that happened. Very different to what i've experienced but it worked really well. david was great.Very kind and thoughtful but guided me through it all really well. It has definitely helped my feel better.
