What This Is

Slowing down, softening, and allowing the body to lead.

Somatic Restorative Therapy integrates therapeutic conversation with restorative yoga postures, mindful breathwork, and nervous system regulation practices. It supports healing through the body — helping you soften tension, unwind emotional stress, and reconnect with a sense of internal safety.

Where talk therapy engages the mind, somatic restorative work helps you tune into the wisdom of the body — releasing patterns held in muscles, breath, and the nervous system.

Who This Is For

Signs your body may need this kind of support

Many people turn to body-based therapy when they notice that stress or emotional pain is held not just in the mind, but in the body.

Nervous System Dysregulation

  • Feeling constantly on edge, overwhelmed, or unable to rest
  • Difficulty calming down after stress
  • Emotional shutdown, numbness, or disconnection from the body

Stress, Burnout & Emotional Exhaustion

  • Persistent tension in the body — tight chest, shallow breathing
  • Feeling depleted from overworking or caregiving
  • Constant restlessness and difficulty unwinding

Trauma & Habitual Patterns

  • Trauma responses that feel automatic or hard to shift
  • Freeze response, dissociation, hypervigilance, or people-pleasing
  • Wanting to experience safety and grounding in the body

Scarlette's Approach

Trained in both therapy and the body.

Scarlette's somatic restorative work is shaped by her background as a long-term yoga practitioner, certified yoga teacher, and trained restorative yoga teacher — alongside her clinical training as a counsellor. This rare integration allows her to offer a form of therapy that honours both the wisdom of the mind and the intelligence of the body.

Sessions are slow, gentle, and deeply supportive — offering a sanctuary for rest and emotional recalibration. You remain in full control of your experience at all times.

What to Expect

How a somatic session unfolds

01

Arrive & Settle

We begin by creating a gentle transition into the session — grounding you in the present moment and letting the body soften out of its daily pace.

02

Tune Into the Body

With supported postures and guided awareness, we bring attention to physical sensations, breath, and the messages the nervous system is holding.

03

Soften & Release

Through restorative positions held gently over time, the body gradually unwinds accumulated tension, stress, and habitual protective responses.

04

Integrate & Reflect

Therapeutic dialogue helps you make meaning of what arose in the body — connecting somatic experience to emotional understanding and inner growth.

"Somatic restorative therapy is not about performance, stretching, or doing more. It is about slowing down, softening, and allowing the body to lead."
