Are You Holding Trauma in Your Body?
Do you feel trapped by emotional stress or chronic health issues linked to complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD) or narcissistic abuse? Have you tried diets, detoxes, or traditional psychotherapy, yet still struggle with physical ailments or recurring relationship patterns? If you’re seeking a somatic therapist to integrate mind, body, and soul for holistic healing, you’re in the right place. At True Health Counselling, we help you heal from the inside out, addressing unconscious patterns that fuel psychosomatic symptoms like autoimmune issues or digestive problems.
Heal CPTSD, Mend Narcissistic Somatic Trauma Symptoms
About True Health Counselling: As a holistic nurse psychotherapist, True Health Counselling delivers complex trauma-informed psychotherapy through The Integrative Somatic Trauma Healing Approach—a psychosomatic, mindfulness-based framework with Gestalt therapy and a faith-based lens. Specializing in CPTSD, BPD, narcissistic somatic symptoms, psychosomatic disorders, and immune dysfunction, we guide faith-oriented clients to authentic healing, safe relationships, and coming home to their souls.
Heal Unconscious Patterns to Restore Your Body
You may have analyzed your childhood trauma or past relationships endlessly, but talking alone hasn’t healed your body or broken cycles of pain. As Bessel van der Kolk explains in The Body Keeps the Score, trauma is stored in the body, requiring somatic approaches for deep healing. At True Health Counselling, our somatic therapy targets the unconscious patterns driving your symptoms, helping you release trapped emotions and reclaim your soul. Whether you’re dealing with chronic illness, emotional reactivity, or codependency, we guide you to heal on a profound, embodied level.
Listen to Your Body’s Wisdom
Your body’s symptoms—whether inflammation, autoimmune flares, or digestive issues—are signals of deeper emotional stress. According to Gabor Maté, stress and trauma can manifest as physical ailments when unaddressed. Instead of repeating the same painful patterns, somatic therapy helps you tune into your body non-judgmentally. By slowing down and listening, you break cycles of stress, fostering safety and wholeness. This approach, supported by the Trauma Research Foundation, empowers you to respond with wisdom to relationships and situations, transforming your life.
Feel Safe Again with Somatic Therapy
Somatic therapy resolves not only conscious traumas but also intergenerational and survival traumas stored in your nervous system. Narcissistic abuse, with its gaslighting and control, disrupts your sense of safety, affecting your limbic and autonomic nervous systems. This can lead to chronic anxiety, depression, or psychosomatic disorders. Our approach, grounded in Somatic Experiencing, helps regulate these systems, restoring balance and vitality. By healing the body’s emotional psychology, you feel safer, freer, and more connected to your human potential.
The Somatic Healing Approach
Your struggles—whether from emotionally reactive parents, controlling partners, or your own coping patterns—are human responses to survive challenging relationships. As Psychology Today notes, trauma often stems from relational dynamics, and healing happens through safe, relational connections. Our somatic therapy honours this, integrating mind and body as one. We help you:
- Heal Your Nervous System: Regulate your emotional and relational nervous system for stability and peace.
- Release Toxic Patterns: Let go of shame, resentment, and self-sabotage from narcissistic abuse.
- Navigate Relationships: Heal from toxic dynamics and build safe, authentic connections.
- Awaken Authenticity: Live a soul-aligned, creative life with purpose.
- Embrace a Gentle Pace: Foster a slower, soulful approach to healing.
Healing Modalities for Holistic Recovery
Our Integrative Somatic Trauma Healing Approach combines evidence-based and faith-based methods, tailored to your needs:
- Embodied Healing: Release stored trauma using Somatic Experiencing, as developed by Peter Levine.
- Gestalt Therapy: Integrate disowned parts to live as your true self.
- Shadow Work: Embrace hidden patterns for radical self-acceptance.
- Relational Healing: Heal relationship wounds through safe therapeutic connections and self-awareness.
- Mindfulness-Based Therapy: Release trauma with evidence-based emotional regulation, as supported by Mindful.
- Faith-Based Therapy: For those seeking a Christian lens, trust in God’s love for soul-led healing.
Why Somatic Therapy Works
Unlike traditional talk therapy, somatic therapy addresses the 95% of behaviors driven by the subconscious, as noted in neuroscience research. By working with your body’s wisdom, we unravel patterns from narcissistic abuse, codependency, or intergenerational trauma. This is particularly effective for chronic psychosomatic ailments (e.g., bowel syndromes, autoimmune disorders) that resist other treatments. Whether you’re in Toronto or seeking virtual therapy, our holistic approach fosters safety, creativity, and purpose.

- Intense emotions, identity confusion, or codependency.
