My approach to therapy: My approach to therapy is grounded, relational, and paced by the nervous system—not urgency. We move at the speed of trust, explore what’s present for you now, and gently gather tools to support healing. No “fixing,” just care that honors your whole self.

GEORGE LOUGH

My approach to therapy: I do traditional talk therapy, Somatic Experiencing for Complex PTSD, and Jungian dream work. I may use a combination of these approaches depending on what works best for you and the issues that you want to work on. Psychotherapy should help you experience relief from emotional pain, anxiety, depression and the results of trauma or abuse. I see couples also.

Find Somatic Therapists & Counselors in Mississippi.

Somatic therapy is a body-centered approach to healing that helps you connect your mind and body to release stress, trauma, and emotional pain stored in the body. It’s based on the understanding that emotions and experiences don’t just live in your thoughts — they also show up physically through tension, posture, or sensations.

Somatic therapists guide you through techniques such as breathwork, movement, mindfulness, and body awareness to help you notice and release physical responses to emotional experiences. Therapy sessions may take place in-person or online and are paced to ensure safety, comfort, and self-regulation.

Whether you’re coping with trauma, anxiety, chronic stress, or feeling disconnected from your body, somatic therapy can help you restore balance, presence, and emotional resilience.

Wherever you are located in Mississippi, Mental Health Match can help you easily find an experienced somatic therapist or counselor who best meets your needs.

The Benefits of Somatic Therapy

Somatic therapy can promote deep emotional and physical healing. Common benefits include:

  • Reduced stress and anxiety
  • Release of tension and stored trauma
  • Improved body awareness and connection
  • Better emotional regulation
  • Enhanced resilience and self-compassion
  • Greater sense of calm and groundedness

If you’d like to learn more about different types of therapy and which one may be right for you, read this article: What are the types of therapy?

When to Consider Somatic Therapy

Somatic therapy may be a good fit if you are experiencing:

  • Trauma or post-traumatic stress (PTSD)
  • Chronic stress, anxiety, or panic
  • Disconnection from your body or emotions
  • Physical symptoms connected to emotional distress — for example, recurring headaches, digestive issues, muscle tension, or fatigue without a clear medical cause
  • Difficulty relaxing or feeling safe
  • A desire for holistic, body-based healing

Somatic therapy may not be ideal if you’re uncomfortable with body awareness practices or prefer strictly talk-based therapy — though many therapists combine somatic techniques with traditional approaches.
