Online Somatic Therapy in Texas
Restore safety. Reconnect with your body. Reclaim your life.
When you’ve been in survival mode for too long, it can be hard to feel anything at all.
You might be carrying stress that never seems to lift.
You may feel anxious, easily overwhelmed, or emotionally shut down.
Maybe you’ve tried to talk through it, journal it away, or push through, but something still feels stuck.
That “something” is often your nervous system. Somatic therapy helps you meet it with compassion, not control.
This approach recognizes that your body remembers what your mind might not know how to explain. It provides a way forward for people who are ready to feel grounded, present, and alive again.
Common Struggles Somatic Therapy Can Help With:
Chronic anxiety, panic, or overwhelm
Emotional numbness or disconnection from your body
Anger or irritation that feels hard to control
Fatigue, burnout, or a sense of shutting down
Difficulty relaxing or feeling safe
A history of trauma, neglect, or emotional pain
Feeling stuck even after talk therapy
These experiences are often signs of a dysregulated nervous system, not personal failure. Healing starts with safety, not pressure.
What Is Somatic Therapy?
Somatic therapy is a body-based form of psychotherapy that helps you gently reconnect with yourself through awareness, sensation, movement, and breath.
Where traditional therapy often focuses on thoughts and beliefs, somatic therapy includes the body’s wisdom. It helps you notice how your body holds experiences, especially when you’ve gone through stress or trauma that your mind has had to compartmentalize just to keep going.
This work is supported by research in nervous system science and polyvagal theory. It isn’t about fixing you. It’s about creating space for your body to remember what it’s like to feel safe again.
Understanding the Nervous System and Polyvagal Theory
Your nervous system is always scanning for cues of safety or danger. When it senses threat, it reacts automatically to protect you. This might show up as:
Fight: tension, irritation, frustration
Flight: restlessness, worry, panic
Freeze: numbness, exhaustion, depression
Fawn: people-pleasing, difficulty saying no, self-abandonment
Over time, your system can get stuck in these patterns. You may feel constantly on edge or completely shut down, even when you know you’re “safe.” Somatic therapy gently helps the body rewire its response and learn how to return to calm and connection.
Polyvagal theory explains how our vagus nerve influences these states. When we feel safe, we access the part of the nervous system that allows us to connect, relax, digest, and restore. When we don’t, the body prepares for defense, even when no current threat is present. The good news is this system can be retrained.
