The Difference Between Talk Therapy and Somatic Therapy

Maybe you've done therapy before. Maybe you've done a lot of it. You've understood your patterns, traced them back to where they came from. You know why you do what you do. And you're still stuck.

If that sounds familiar, you haven't failed therapy. You may have just hit its ceiling.

Talk therapy is powerful — but insight is a map, and knowing the map is not the same as being able to move. Your nervous system doesn't speak the language of logic. It speaks the language of sensation. And that's exactly where somatic therapy works.
