Finding a Somatic Therapist in Colorado

We believe the body keeps a record of what the mind hasn't fully processed.

Somatic therapy focuses on the connection between mind and body, recognizing that trauma and emotional distress often get stored physically — in tension, posture, or a nervous system stuck on high alert. At Overcomers Counseling in Colorado, our somatic-informed therapists help clients become more aware of bodily sensations and release stored tension as part of the healing process.

Our team of dedicated somatic-trained counselors works with the body, not just the mind.

Somatic Therapy Services

Sometimes healing needs to happen in the body, not just the head.

We offer somatic therapy at our Colorado Springs, Aurora, Pueblo, and Fort Collins offices, often paired with Brainspotting or Dance Movement Therapy.

Somatic Therapy for Trauma and Chronic Tension

If stress or trauma shows up physically — tight shoulders, shallow breathing, a body that won't relax — somatic work helps you process it directly instead of just talking around it.

Benefits of Somatic Therapy

Addresses the Body, Not Just Thoughts — Healing includes physical tension, not just mental patterns.

Builds Nervous System Regulation — Clients often notice a calmer baseline over time.

Licensed Professional Counselors — Our providers bring genuine training in body-based technique.

If stress lives in your body as much as your mind, reach out to Overcomers Counseling to find a somatic therapist in Colorado.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Hilary was lovely. She was kind, patient, incredibly knowledgeable and very validating. She had extensive knowledge of my conditions that most providers dismiss and it was very comforting and encouraging to hear she knew of those conditions and was well informed of them. Best psychiatrist I've had yet. 10/10
