What is Somatic Attachment Psychotherapy?
Somatic Attachment Psychotherapy is an integrative talk therapy that combines principles of attachment theory with body-centered practice.  It recognizes the deep connection between mind and body and emphasizes early attachment experiences.  These early attachment experiences with primary caregivers influence both emotional and physical well-being.  This therapy focuses on addressing unresolved attachment trauma or relational wounds that manifest not only in emotional and psychological patterns but also in the body.  â€‹
 
What psychological issues does this type of therapy treat?  
This form of therapy is particularly useful for individuals who have experienced early trauma or relational wounds and are looking to heal not only on a cognitive level but also on a somatic, embodied level.​   The types of issues that can be treated include anxiety, depression, stress, complex trauma and other relational trauma.
 
What can I expect from a session?​  

During a session, it will feel like a regular talk therapy session with the addition of being made aware of body sensations, talking about attachment patterns,  recognizing and processing emotions and learning self-regulation techniques.


 
What are the benefits of this type of therapy?

  • Greater emotional and psychological resilience

  • Improved relationships and ability to form secure attachments

  • Reduction in trauma symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and chronic stress.

  • Increased body awareness and ability to self-regulate in challenging situations​​​
