What is somatherapy?
A way to listen to yourself through the body.
Somatherapy is a body-based approach that pays attention to sensations, tension, emotions and internal responses as they show up in the body.
Instead of staying only with what we think, we also learn to notice what the body is expressing. This kind of listening can help you recognize patterns, needs and signals that can be difficult to understand through the mind alone.

Support experienceFrequently asked questions
If this is new to you, start here.
Somatherapy is still not widely known. These answers explain the essentials in a simple way.
It is a body-centered approach that invites you to notice sensations, tension and internal responses as part of a process of awareness and regulation.
No. You can come with no previous experience. The session adapts to you and begins with what you are feeling in that moment.
We talk briefly, notice what is happening in the body, and continue with exercises, body awareness or support according to what is appropriate for you.
It depends on your process and what you want to explore. The S.O.M.A Method offers a three-session process for deeper work, but you can also begin with one individual session.
Sessions are offered in Montréal, Québec. To ask about availability, format and booking, you can write to me directly from this page.
