Somatic Expieriencing

What is Somatic Experiencing?

Somatic Experiencing (SE) therapy was founded by Peter Levine. It addresses the stress of trauma, such as; abuse, assault, car accidents, surgeries, or impact falls. Balancing attention of internal experience with external orientation, in the presence of safe and reliable support, we can free up the subtle tension forces in the body. With Somatic Experiencing, we are left feeling calm, safe, and supported in the world.  Add to that all the many blended gifts and ways Sherry offers your body to shift and you have a profound opportunity to fully heal in all aspects of self.

Trauma Resolution

What is Trauma Resolution?

Trauma Resolution is a blend of my knowledge, education, experiences and gifts and my own healing process.  It is a process where I assist hearts in moving through to their healing and becoming whole.  It is all about re-parenting and healing the inner child who has been traumatized and who has created defense mechanisms that kept them safe and able to survive as a child. Sometimes those old mechanisms get in the way of being an adult and having healthy relationships, either with self or others.  I assist in tweaking and shifting the mechanisms into more mature and healthy ones that are more conducive and age appropriate, while rewriting the old tapes that play and create unhealthy patterns.

Body Awareness

What is BASE?

Body Awareness Somatic Education (BASE) is a therapeutic approach to helping people overcome the effect of traumatic dysregulation at the structural/tissue level using hands-on interventions and movement or somatic education interventions. BASE provides a way to add to Sherry’s work as a body therapist through body usage and touch. How she is able to “see” or track how a client uses his or her body gives insight as to how and where immobility is held in the body and how it might affect emotional life. Bone, fascia, viscera, and eyes can all be affected and can remain immobilized after a trauma. Posture and attitude show stuck or constricted, or activated areas of the body and how it might influence relational and interpersonal dynamics.

Definition of Energy Work and Healing Touch

Energy Work or Healing Touch is a way of healing the whole person naturally as it affects the whole body positively; physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

This intuitive work does not interfere with the treatment of a licensed medical professional in any way. It is recommended that you see a licensed physician, or a licensed health care professional for any physical or psychological ailment you may have.

The knowledge energy flows through all living things and is connected directly to the quality of health in body, mind and spirit and has been part of the knowledge of ancient cultures since the beginning of time. The existence of “life force energy” has been verified by recent scientific experiments and medical doctors are considering the role it plays in the functioning of the immune system and the body’s healing process. Energy work is wonderful for stress reduction, relaxation and general flow of comfort, it allows everyone to tap into an unlimited supply of life force energy, to improve health, and enhance the quality of life. Energy is transmitted into yourself and others by your hands.

Everyone has the ability to access and transmit this “life force energy”. It is not dependent on ones intellectual capacity or spiritual development and therefore everyone is able to learn how to do it. Thousands of people of all ages and backgrounds, even children, especially children, are able to send and receive energy. A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance flowing through and around the body. Energy work positively affects the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit and creates many beneficial effects including relaxation and feelings of peace, security, well-being, and clarity.

An energy treatment is given by placing the hands on or just above the client’s body. It is a gentle, non-intrusive touch therapy and brings wholeness to the recipient. It restores the natural energy balance in the body and provides deep relaxation while eliciting a sense of peace and well being, bringing mental clarity, insights and vivid images as it compliments the healing properties of other medical treatments and therapies.
