Bodywork for Stabilization and Resiliency is a blend of Somatic Experiencing® (SE™), Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, Pre and Perinatal Therapy, Somatic Resiliency, Polarity Therapy and Polarity Life Counseling, Trauma Resolution and Myofascial Massage. It involves repairing and releasing patterns associated with overwhelming events in our lives. It is not regressive; it is present time and resource oriented. It focuses on identifying states in the body, the functional range of the nervous system, and ways to release held patterns in connection and safety. Education about nervous system state change is a big part of the therapy. It involves feeling states in the body. Sessions are completed with the client fully clothed with a combination of slow compression, massage, kidney/adrenal and brain stem holds, moving touch, presence and Biodynamic craniosacral therapy. The client is asked to notice shifting states in the body.
Over many years, I was mentored by John Chitty, RPP, BCST, co-director of the Colorado School of Energy Studies in the study of Polarity Life Counseling. After his death, I continued to study with Anna Chitty, RPP, BCST and their daughter Liz Chitty Sandoval and added Polarity Therapy to the list of bodywork skills.
The approach of Bodywork for Stability, Resilience and Transformation is to first help stabilize the nervous system's responses to stress and trauma, then discover with the client the strengths and challenges with the system. Clients are asked to have an intention, or what they would like for themselves. The approach weaves together a trauma-informed practices to help the client get with they want for themselves, based on the work of Peter Levine, Randolph Stone, John and Anna Chitty, Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, and 5 different kinds of touch. Verbal inquiry is a part of the practice.
Sessions are:
1 hour for regular talk and table work ($150)
1 hour 15 min, recommended ($175)
1 hour 30 min, as part of intensive healing work ($200)
