Personable therapy for Kansas and Missouri residents
Providing counseling that holds space for curiosity
At Somatide Counseling, we’re committed to creating a space where you feel safe to be honest—where you can tell us if something doesn’t feel right, if an approach isn’t working, or if a different path feels more aligned. We’re here to help soften the weight of difficult conversations and the insights that may be uncovered. Together, we’ll find ways to express and move through anger and complex emotions, so they can be felt and understood, rather than pushed aside and inhibited.

Our services
Intergenerational Conflict & Generational Trauma
Navigating the impact of intergenerational trauma involves understanding the deep-rooted pain and experiences passed down through families and communities, often entangled in oppressive and systemic injustices. In our sessions, we will explore the wounds and legacies inherited from previous generations, to understand how these histories impact our daily lives.
By honoring both the struggles and strengths of your ancestors, we will work together to identify triggers & barriers and ways to practice wisdom of the body to integrate all facets of your identity. Together, may we embody healing by challenging and transforming locked patterns of the past often rooted in structures that perpetuate trauma across generations.
Migration/Immigration
Navigating the complexities of immigration is not just a personal journey—it's deeply intertwined with systemic injustices, from policies to societal exclusion. In our work together, we'll address the emotional toll of displacement, cultural adaptation, and trauma, while recognizing the broader socio-political forces at play. We will resist the erasure of identities and cultures, fostering solidarity in the face of systems designed to marginalize. Feeling connected to new customs while simultaneously experiencing resiliency and joy from your cultural community and family is valid. By honoring this, we’ll work to address triggers, oppressive barriers, and embrace all parts of your identity in a new environment.
Sexual Trauma
Healing from sexual trauma involves addressing the profound hurt and violation experienced, while also acknowledging the societal issues that can amplify suffering. Together, we will challenge any minimization of your experience and nurture the strength and resilience needed to confront the barriers that contribute to trauma.
Sexual violence often results in feelings of guilt, shame, self-doubt, and debilitating anxiety. By focusing on the body’s responses, we will explore ways to understand, regulate, and process intense feelings, allowing you to reconnect with a sense of safety and control.
Embracing both your need for recovery and personal empowerment is essential. We will develop strategies to manage triggers, support your body's natural healing processes, and integrate every aspect of your identity into a cohesive and resilient whole.
Anxiety & Depression
Living with anxiety and depression can feel overwhelming, isolating, and exhausting, often creating a cycle of persistent worry, self-doubt, and a heavy emotional weight that can make even the smallest tasks feel impossible. In our work together, we will focus on breaking this cycle by not only understanding the root causes of your anxiety and depression but also by addressing how these emotions are stored in your body. We’ll explore how stress and trauma are physically held and work to release and clear these stored emotions. Together, we’ll cultivate self-compassion, help you let go of built-up tension, and guide you towards reclaiming your sense of peace and purpose.
