Navigate Life’s Changes with Grounded Support
Stress and uncertainty often accompany major life transitions—be it a career shift, relationship change, or personal reinvention. These moments can stir up anxiety, overwhelm, and a sense of disconnection. Integrating somatic therapy with cognitive behavioral techniques, we help you process these shifts by reconnecting with your body’s wisdom and restoring emotional balance.
Through practices like grounding, breathwork, and mindfulness, you’ll build resilience, release stored tension, and move forward with clarity and self-trust. Whether you're navigating grief, career changes, or personal reinvention, support is here to help you find strength and healing.
What Anxiety and Stress
Can Feel Like
You don’t need a diagnosis to know something isn’t working. Many people we work with describe:
-
Feeling stuck in worry or worst-case scenarios
-
Burnout from work, caregiving, or everyday responsibilities
-
Irritability, fatigue, or difficulty sleeping
-
Perfectionism or fear of letting others down
-
Trouble focusing, decision paralysis, or low motivation
-
Physical tension, headaches, or gut discomfort
At Somatic Women, therapy can help you notice these patterns
without judgment—and gently build new tools for coping,
soothing, and moving forward.
