Developed by an osteopath, Dr. Upledger, CST uses gentle touch techniques to the spine, head, neck jaw, and whole body to relieve tension, pain, and to allow the nervous system to calm and return to a state of well-being. This is effective work for people who experience chronic pain, anxiety, or residual pain from injuries, car accidents, headaches, TMJ, whiplash, shoulder pain. Therapeutic exercises or yoga poses may also be taught to promote physical alignment and balance.​ Learn more

Somatic Integrative Therapy bridges the gap between talk therapy and physical sensation. The body stores the imprints of past stress and experiences. Instead of reliving painful memories, we focus on how your body presently holds these experiences. By shifting the focus from the "story" to the "sensation," we facilitate release and healing through:

• Engage in Guided Dialogue: Use imagery and "parts work" to communicate with the areas of the body holding onto distress.

• Work with Resistance: Gently navigate the body’s protective layers to reach deeper levels of release.

• Tracking Sensations: Developing awareness of physical cues to gently discharge residual tension.

• Nervous System Recalibration: Restoring a sense of containment, safety, and physical ease.

Certified in guided imagery and meditation, Deborah uses mindfulness and relaxation practices alongside traditional occupational therapy. Because emotional experiences are stored in the physical body and our thoughts impact our body and perception of ourselves and all that is around us, work is proactive and collaborative to find inner calmness, comfort in your body, and empowerment to live your life more fully. Deborah teaches customized stress-reducing practices such as breathing, nervous system regulation, somatic experiencing, and cognitive behavioral techniques, as well as, meditation/guided imagery, pacing, and protocols to facilitate healing, greater self-confidence, resiliency, and ease in your daily life.
