Renew your sense of your own Belonging

In Hearth Place sessions you will talk and listen as much with your hands and body as you do with your thoughts and words. Just as a body internalizes emotional pain, conflict and trauma, it can also release those blockages to wellbeing with playful embodied therapy - even when we can’t find the words to articulate our experiences.

The modalities offered at Hearth Place go beyond the limits of talk therapy. Attending to multi-sensory, somatic experiences can enhance your understanding of your emotional experience, help build your capacity for attention and focus, and widen your window of tolerance for navigating distress.

Whether you’re 8 or 88, sessions at Hearth Place, using forms of somatic therapy, expressive play and nature guided interactions, can help you access a profound sense of your own belonging. Clients of all ages - from toddler to elder - have accessed these modalities to help with experiences of death, disturbing dreams, ecological distress, grief, identity shame, inner conflict, loss, and transition. Transition may include navigating gender identity, hormone readiness, illness, injury, polyamory, relationship rupture, sexuality, and social role changes.
