Virtual STMR--What to expect:

Sessions are conducted over Zoom or other secure video platform. Either audio only or audio/video is fine, depending on your preference. You should be in a quiet, private space with minimal distractions. Each session begins with a short interview to understand your background, current concerns, and progress. Once we're ready to begin, you'll be guided into a state of relaxation, where we will explore your sense of safety vs threat, the somatic reality of your thoughts and fears, and other aspects of your sublte experience. Gradually, we will discover how your challenging beliefs and struggles are anchored in your body, and gently work to release them using simple breathwork, subtle awareness, and guided imagery. During this process you may experience deep relaxation, subtle body sensations like warmth, tingling, vibration, or fatigue, familiar or unfamiliar emotions, forgotten memories, or other somatic sensations.
