Drawing on clinical discussion, video demonstrations, reflection, and accessible experiential practice, this session emphasizes cultivating curiosity over judgment and listening closely to the story the body is telling. We’ll unpack how to use internal senses and body-based cues as feedback mechanisms to recognize autonomic nervous system shifts, helping clinicians enhance their assessment, case conceptualization, and clinical processing when working with clients who become flooded, disconnected, or highly cognitive.🙂🗓️

Learn how to weave somatic therapy into your EMDR practice to support stabilization, dual awareness, and trauma processing. You will leave with concrete, accessible skills to track nervous system patterns, utilize somatic interweaves, and help your clients move from survival toward greater connection and flourishing.
