Start your Somatic Journey
For individuals and the therapists who support them.
​
If you're ready to feel better in your body, deepen your relationships, reconnect with your work, or rediscover your sense of purpose, you're in the right place.
​
If you're feeling stuck, stressed, overwhelmed, shut down, in pain, or simply unsure of what's next, you're not alone — and you're still in the right place.
​
Even if you can't name what's wrong but know that something needs to change now, you're welcome here.
​
Change begins with turning inward. When we gently explore what’s happening inside the body — the place where patterns live — we can begin to shift what’s happening outside.
​
Somatic therapy is a powerful path for individuals. It’s also a trusted resource for therapists looking to support their clients with embodied, trauma-informed care that complements talk therapy.
​
When you understand what moves you — physically, emotionally, and mentally — you can respond to life with clarity, choice, and direction.
​
Be open to change. The shift often comes sooner than you think.

For Clients, Couples & Groups
​
Somatic therapy helps uncover and heal the root of trauma, stress, pain, and addiction, by working through the body, not just the mind. Yes, there’s talking, but also movement, sensation, and supported contact.
​
Since 2002, Soleil has combined body-based awareness, mindful contact, and assisted movement with compassionate care for individuals, couples, and groups. It’s a gentle, collaborative process that supports lasting change in your health, relationships, work, and day-to-day life.
​
Somatic therapy pairs well with talk therapy. Referrals from your therapist are welcomed as part of a team approach.

​"Get out of the chair and step into your body.
That’s where transformation begins.” ~ Soleil

A fantastic experience!“

For Health Professionals
​​
“Trigger. Dissociate. Disconnect.” These words describe more than just your client’s experience - they can show up in you, too. A freeze in your body. A bracing breath. A sudden sense of disconnection. In those charged moments, the body isn’t a problem—it’s the pathway. Do you know how to use it?
The Somatic Session are professional trainings & consultation groups for working with the client's body, and personal workshops for being
regulated in the therapist's body.
Start with an online group, a training or an in-personworkshop that best
fits your schedule, budget, and curiosity. Try it all for
a full-spectrum, embodied approach.
