Service Description

IPOC Somatic Healing, also known as Intergenerational and Polyvagal-Oriented Counseling Somatic Healing, is a holistic approach to healing and well-being that combines elements of somatic therapy, intergenerational trauma work, and Polyvagal Theory. This innovative therapeutic modality aims to address not only the symptoms of mental and emotional distress but also the underlying somatic and intergenerational patterns that contribute to a person's overall health and well-being. Description of IPOC Somatic Healing: Somatic Awareness: IPOC Somatic Healing places a strong emphasis on somatic awareness, recognizing that our bodies store and express emotional and intergenerational experiences. Therapists trained in this approach help individuals connect with their physical sensations, bodily responses, and nervous system reactions as a means of understanding and healing from past traumas and stressors. Polyvagal Theory Integration: Polyvagal Theory, developed by Dr. Stephen Porges, is a fundamental component of this approach. It explores the role of the autonomic nervous system in regulating emotions, behavior, and social engagement. IPOC Somatic Healing uses Polyvagal Theory to help clients understand how their nervous system responds to stress and trauma, and how to regulate it for optimal well-being. Intergenerational Trauma Work: This approach acknowledges that trauma and stress can be passed down through generations. Therapists working within the IPOC Somatic Healing framework help clients explore and heal ancestral trauma patterns that may be affecting their lives. By addressing these intergenerational patterns, individuals can break the cycle of suffering and promote healing not only for themselves but for future generations as well. Benefits of IPOC Somatic Healing: Holistic Healing: IPOC Somatic Healing takes a holistic approach, recognizing that emotional, psychological, and physical well-being are interconnected.
