Somatic Attachment Sessions

Gentle, compassionate, one-on-one sessions for trauma recovery, resilience building, and self-awareness.

In 1:1 Somatic Attachment Sessions, we use a blend of talk and body awareness prompts to bring awareness to how the nervous system processes information and experiences. This work helps to make sense of and discharge the physiological stressors that were stored during past moments of overwhelm.

Somatic Attachment Sessions can support healing from shock trauma, like accidents and frightful experiences. It’s also a powerful tool for addressing emotional trauma.

 How Do Somatic Attachment Sessions Work?

While there will be talking during a session, we work mainly with how the body processes that information. Often this leads to a physiological release of held stress responses, as well as a deeper relationship with self.

Occasionally, a session may be a standalone experience to process something presenting in the moment. But more often, the benefit of this work is cumulative. While some sessions may provide insights and relief, others will be more subtle as we work together to build safety and trust to learn how your system processes information.

  • “Courtney is the best practitioner I’ve had: she’s a good listener, compassionate, and has lots of strategies for helping me along and seeing other perspectives. I like the way she engages me and meets me where I am, and it all comes from her heart. She validates me, and I feel safe with her”.

  • "My son had a traumatic experience of almost being hit by a car. Courtney used movement, storytelling, play and visualization to help him move through the experience. She debriefed with me, and cued me into his behaviors helping me to understand more about his brain and body. Prior to the session, my son had been obsessively talking about the car experience with fear. In the days and weeks following the session, he hardly mentioned it and when he did there was a lightness to how he talked about it. Courtney is a guide, educator, and wise woman. She will hold your family and child with the utmost care back into a state of greater security and love."
