Your Instructor
My name is Gretchen, and as a certified somatic trauma specialist, I have dedicated my work to helping survivors overcome the complex effects of trauma and abuse. My approach focuses on the deep connection between body and mind, using techniques to release stored trauma, promote healing, and restore a sense of safety and well-being.
As a survivor, I specialize in supporting adults who have experienced childhood trauma or intimate partner abuse and focus on guiding survivors through self-acceptance, self-compassion, and self-regulated healing.

Why Somatic Self-Care?
Somatic Self-Care goes beyond conventional approaches, recognizing the profound connection between the body and mind for healing trauma and to embrace self-care in ways that align with your unique needs.
Healing from trauma has its own unique challenges and defining moments. It's a road often marked by the echoes of pain, isolation, and the struggle to find peace. At times, the weight of the past may feel insurmountable, and the concept of self-care may seem elusive.
You recognize the profound influence that trauma can exert on every dimension of your being.
Somatic Self-Care is more than just a series of lessons; it's a guiding light through the shadows of your experience.
