SOMATIC PSYCHOTHERAPY

Stop living on edge & start living with clarity.

You’re stuck in the same painful cycles, but you can’t seem to break free…

You’ve learned to keep going, to hold it all together, or to push down what you’re really feeling.

But under the surface, it’s starting to catch up with you:

You snap at the people you love, then feel guilt or shame afterward.

You numb out—scrolling, snacking, staying busy—just to avoid slowing down.

Despite trying to shut down your feelings, you’re easily overwhelmed and quick to react.

You crave peace and connection, but instead feel stuck in tension, resentment, or loneliness.

You know something needs to shift—but you're not sure how to begin.

And maybe part of you is scared of what might come up if you really let yourself feel…

    Hope

  • "Chelsea really supported me in welcoming every emotion and experience. I appreciate her energy and calming nature, and I felt incredibly well held during the session. I will definitely be choosing to work with her again - I feel so much lighter."

    Jemma

  • "An amazing session, where I was safely able to feel anger and grief and find the origins of these feelings in a very young part of myself. The imagery and physical movements that came naturally throughout the process were supported and guided by Chelsea effortlessly. The integration and finishing left me feeling very powerful, at peace and whole... like a missing part had been brought into its rightful place. A very beautiful experience, even with some laughter and joy there too."

    G

  • "With Chelsea's guidance, I was able to quickly dive deeper than the initial layers of anxiety, panic and fear, into a much older layers of sadness, grief and loss. I reconnected with a younger part of me and a time in my life where loss, circumstances beyond my control, and a loss of innocence had left a deep imprint. It was a familiar part but I felt such relief and deep gratitude to reconnect once again with that part, and welcome it into my awareness with kindness."

The truth is, lasting transformation doesn’t happen in your mind - it happens in your body.

We can’t think our way out of patterns that live in the body.
The habits, reactions, and emotional loops that keep us stuck aren’t just mental—they’re physical, too.

Somatic psychotherapy helps us slow down and listen to what our body has to tell us.

Somatic Therapy helps you:

Notice the subtle signs of stress and overwhelm before they take over.

Learn new ways of relating to yourself, your body, and the people you love.

Build self-compassion, acceptance and self-trust.

Understand the emotional roots of your patterns, rather than getting stuck in them.

Learning to feel and process your emotions, rather than suppress them or be overwhelmed by them.

Creating space for clarity, confidence, and creativity to thrive.

Hi, I’m Chelsea.

A sensitive, slightly scruffy, trauma-informed, Somatic Psychotherapist.

Dedicated to supporting sensitive women to reconnect with their bodies and their emotions to create lasting change in their lives.

I understand how overwhelming it can feel to be stuck in painful patterns and unsure of how to move forward, despite trying all the things. During my 10 years of exploring this work, Somatic Therapy has supported me in healing my own patterns of perfectionism, anxiety, depression, overwhelm, disconnection and dissociation, chronic pain and disordered eating. It’s taught me to feel safe in my own body and to expand my capacity for compassion towards myself and others.

After trying so many other things (affirmations, yoga, personal development seminars, bio-field energy healing, CBT, Positive Thinking, TM Meditation, NLP, talk therapy - the list goes on…) I was really moved by how gentle and effective the Somatic Therapy process is.

Now as a practitioner myself, it is my intention is to create a safe, compassionate space where you can feel held, explore your inner emotional landscape, express yourself, heal past wounds, create a life of choice and experience true freedom.

I am forever in awe of the natural healing that’s possible when the mind and body are given the attention and compassion they need.
