Trauma is stored in the body. Healing from trauma requires expanding your capacity to feel whatever it was that couldn't be safely felt before, and allowing those sensations to move through and out of your body. Pacing is key, as too much too soon can trigger the body's emergency response system and be retraumatizing rather than healing. Somatic experiencing, mindfulness, guided imagery, and skill building all have a place in my practice. I also have formal training in clinical hypnosis, which I find invaluable in helping people who experience significant dissociation.
