Sadly, 8 of 10 women in America struggle with body shame. Much of it comes from our societal beliefs. The truth is that with the right adjustment in mental and emotional reframing, you can release body and sexual shame, no matter where it comes from. The result is a feeling of self-confidence and self-appreciation that strengthen your ability to connect with others.
Our East Bay psychotherapists & psychologists, are highly skilled in treating trauma through body-based modalities. Somatic trauma therapies, such as Somatic Experiencing, AEDP, EMDR and Hakomi operate from the idea that the resulting psychological trauma is not inherently caused by the actual traumatic event, but more so from the inability of the nervous system, mind and body to effectively process the detrimental experience. By working from a somatic and holistic perspective in trauma therapy, individuals who have survived such painful and disturbing experiences can reset their nervous systems and once again feel safe in the world.
