Somatic Therapy for Trauma, Neurodivergence & Chronic Illness
I support people who feel overwhelmed, disconnected or stuck in patterns of survival to gently come home to their body, slow down and move forward with more trust in themselves.
Through trauma-informed somatic therapy, I offer a compassionate space where you can feel seen, heard and supported as your full self. My approach is neurodivergent-affirming and chronic illness aware, with sessions adapted around your individual nervous system, capacity and needs.
Somatic therapy is available in person in Leith, Edinburgh, and online, allowing you to access support in the way that feels most comfortable and accessible for you.
Hi, I’m Astrid
As an integrative and trauma-informed somatic practitioner, I hold space for people to feel seen and supported as their full selves.
My work is centred around helping you reconnect with your body, nervous system and innate sense of wholeness, so you can begin to feel more grounded, connected and safer within yourself.
I particularly support people navigating trauma, neurodivergence, chronic illness, burnout and overwhelm and sessions can be gently adapted around sensory needs, fatigue, fluctuating capacity and what feels accessible for you on the day.
Alongside somatic therapy, I also offer Reiki, shamanic healing, sound and holistic bodywork as a separate complementary part of my practice but can also be woven into sessions upon request.
My Offerings
Somatic Therapy Online & in Leith
Trauma-informed, body-based somatic therapy supporting nervous-system regulation, deeper self-connection and greater capacity around overwhelm.
Rather than asking you to push through or override what your body is communicating, sessions offer space to gently explore sensations, emotions and nervous-system responses at a pace that feels manageable.
Sessions are neurodivergent-affirming, chronic-illness-aware and available in person in Leith or online.
Holistic Healing & Energy Work
For those looking for a more holistic or spiritual approach, I also offer Reiki, shamanic healing, sound healing and integrative sessions.
These sessions create space to slow down, reconnect and receive support through complementary healing practices, either as standalone sessions or alongside your wider wellbeing journey.
Reiki Training in Edinburgh
Learn to heal yourself and others through Reiki Level 1 & 2 trainings held in a small group setting. My trauma-informed courses blend traditional teachings with modern insight.
I also hold occasional circles, sound baths and community wellbeing events in Edinburgh.
