Ali Rose

As a Somatic therapist my work can support you physically, emotionally and mentally through a combination of dialogue, clothed bodywork and movement to explore the issues that concern you.  I work from The Soma Rooms in Chepstow and The Practice Rooms in Clifton, Bristol.

Rooted in science but with a holistic approach to body-mind wellbeing, a somatic approach recognises body, emotion and mind as inseparable, that body is not something you have but who you are. My role is to support your understanding of your body and how it communicates, trusting it as an ally especially when expressing through symptoms and dis-ease. Giving space for body intelligence can bring the seemingly separate parts of ourself together, supporting new insights to old problems and life experiences.  Each session can unfold in a unique way as we anchor in the experience of the body and together bring a creative and collaborative approach guided by curiosity and compassion.

As a Registered Professional Member of the International Somatic Movement Education and Therapy Association, I meet the high Standards of Practice and uphold the Code of Ethics and undertake regular supervision.  For more information visit www.ISMETA.org

I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to answer your questions about this body based approach to therapy and in the first instance recommend an Introductory session (60 mins/£55.00 in Chepstow and £60 Bristol) followed by a minimum of 6 sessions (£150.00/£300) Chepstow/ Bristol £170/£340) to see how our work together might support you.
