How We Work Together
Somatic Psychotherapy
Somatic psychotherapy is a body-based, trauma-informed approach that integrates talk therapy with awareness of your physiological and nervous system experience.
​
The focus is on helping your system build safety and capacity over time, so that the nervous system is supported and change becomes sustainable—not overwhelming.
50-min Virtual Sessions | Available in CO

Meet The Therapist
Rachael Martin LPCC, MA Somatic Psychotherapy
I was a parentified, codependent child who grew into a high-achieving, anxious adult—moving fast, over-functioning, and trying to hold everything together until I burned out.
​
What followed was depression, confusion, and a deep sense of disconnection from myself and my sense of worth.
​
Like many of the clients I now work with, I tried to think my way out of it.
​
I leaned on insight, structure, productivity, and perfectionism—appearing functional on the outside while internally my system felt overwhelmed and exhausted.
​
Over time, I began to realize this wasn’t just stress.
It was a whole-system pattern—held in the nervous system and the body.
​
Chronic tension, shallow breathing, digestive imbalance, disrupted sleep, fluctuating energy, and a persistent sense of disconnection were all part of how my system had adapted to survive.
​
My body asked me to slow down.
To stop overriding.
To listen.
​
Through somatic work and nervous system regulation practices, I began to understand how to actually respond to those signals—rather than push through them.
That shift changed everything.
​
I began rebuilding a sense of internal safety and trust in my own system.
​
As that shifted, so did my external life—more grounded self-worth, clearer direction, steadier energy, and more ease in relationships.
​
This is the foundation of my work.
​
I support adults who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, burnout, chronic stress, perfectionism, or relational overwhelm.
​
Many also experience these patterns alongside physical symptoms such as fatigue, sleep disruption, digestive issues, low energy, or a sense of being out of rhythm in their body and life.
​
In our work together we focus on:
-
understanding stress and nervous system patterns
-
building regulation and capacity in the body
-
reconnecting with internal cues and emotional needs
-
supporting energy, sleep, and daily rhythm
-
shifting long-standing survival patterns that no longer serve you
​
This work is not about forcing change through willpower.
It is about building safety, capacity, and internal alignment so that change becomes something your system can actually sustain.
​
If you are feeling burnt out, disconnected, depleted, or like you’ve tried everything and still feel stuck—this work may be a fit.
