Somatic Therapy & Holistic Sexual Healing
Somatic therapy means working at the level of the nervous system to digest past experiences – the personal, ancestral, and collective imprints that are keeping you from feeling pleasure and belonging in your relationships with yourself, others and the earth.
Living life under a trauma spell can make you feel…
Disconnected from your body, sexuality and self-expression
That closeness, intimacy or belonging is out of reach
Like you're not good enough
That there's something wrong with you
Guilty or weird about masturbation or self pleasure
Sexually frustrated, blocked or shameful
Like you don't want to have sex at all
That there has to be something more
You can have a trauma response to many different types of experiences…
Growing up in a home where your needs weren't met
Living under capitalism, patriarchy and white supremacy.
Residue from things that happened to your parents and ancestors
Being shamed for your sexuality and self expression
Experiencing violence, emotional or sexual abuse
Getting or feeling abandoned by family, partners or friends
Exposure to toxic messaging from white-cis-hetero culture
Some common issues I see in therapy are:
-
sexual assault recovery
-
adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse
-
difficulty with orgasm
-
low sexual self esteem
-
psychedelic integration
-
low sexual desire
-
problematic sexual behaviors (voyeurism, overuse of pornography, pedophilia)
