"Trauma is not what happened to us, but what we hold inside us in the absence of an empathetic witness." Peter Levine
Welcome to my Somatic Practice
You are not your anxiety
You are not your symptoms
I invite you to be open and curious
My name is Liz and I am a Somatic Practitioner
I am committed to creating a space where you can show up as you are. Where your anger, shame, sadness and resistance are welcome and held. I will help you settle your nervous system and bring resolution to the parts of you that weren't seen nor held, and that have found ways to feel safe because it was necessary in the past but no longer serve you now. I offer you what you did not receive in times of strife, the other, who witnesses and supports you, reminding you that you are not your trauma.
We become the empathetic witness and allow the sensations space to breathe. Listening, connecting and waiting, until it knows, it's safe to come home.
