Promote better outcomes for clients in pain, and greater comfort in your own body
SEPs, psychotherapists and counsellors: Integrate Clinical Somatics for a truly embodied approach to help clients resolve stuck stress, dysregulation, and chronic pain.
“Although I had read about the ‘body keeping the score’ it wasn’t until this course that I grasped the concept of the body and the mind being one, rather than there being a separate mind and body. This awareness has meant that I now pay attention to my client’s body and what it is communicating rather than just listening to the words that they are saying… it has also been a personal journey for me … I have become more aware of my own body and how to release stored stress.”

Why integrate Clinical Somatics?
Increase your capacity to help clients address and release stress and trauma, with focused movement work that supports other ‘somatic’ approaches.
Clinical Somatics is the ‘missing piece’: listening to the whole, embodied person and using specific, stress-response-informed movement to create change supports your clients more fully than somatic sensing and awareness alone.
Help clients with MUS, chronic pain conditions, chronic symptoms related to trauma & more - directly, effectively, and at a pace that suits them.
Work with the original Clinical Somatics (Thomas Hanna’s CSE), for specific neuromuscular strategies clearly structured around stress response patterns & supported by contemporary neuroscience.
Help clients access & release stuck stress ‘even if’ that’s not (yet) showing up in them as physical symptoms.
Hello, I’m Samantha.
I love books, cats, and crows (ok, all animals). And my life completely changed when I discovered Clinical Somatics!
A life-long learner, I trained as a psychotherapist because it brought together aspects of previous jobs & experiences that I’d loved. Then, I discovered Hanna’s ‘Clinical Somatic Education’, and got rid of my decades-long chronic pain in a few short months. I also felt way less stressed than I’d ever believed possible, so was able to start addressing past trauma, and to help clients address their embodied stress, too.
That’s why now I train therapists to integrate and embody Clinical Somatics as part of their practice - to benefit their clients, themselves, and their practice.
