Somatic therapy works with the body, not just the mind. Rather than only talking about what's happening, we pay attention to physical sensations, tension, and nervous system responses to access change that insight alone can't reach.

Parts-based therapy recognises that we contain different "parts" often in conflict with each other. Instead of trying to think your way to one unified answer, we work with the parts that are pulling in different directions.

No, but most clients who find this work useful are ready to go beyond surface-level conversation. Curiosity and willingness to sit with discomfort matter more than prior experience.

It varies. Some clients notice shifts within a few months. Deeper pattern work usually takes longer. We assess this together as we go.
