Douglas Smith is an expert in somatic psychotherapy providing therapy for stress, trauma and other conditions that affect the health and regulation of the body and mind. His work focuses on the use of facilitated self-awareness, particularly body awareness, to re-regulate and calm the body.
As an experienced psychotherapist, he also integrates the emotional and cognitive levels of a person’s experience into the therapy, accelerating change and providing a true “mind/body” healing experience. Please go to individual sessions for details on the therapy process.
