What is it?

The Somatic Soul Method is a deep & profoundly effective body-focussed therapy. It looks like a counselling session - we sit and speak about your experience together - but our focus is on including and tracking the responses from your body, rather than the story of the event or situation.
This methodology helps you unwind stress and stories held in your nervous system, reshape habitual and automatic behaviours and re-pattern new ways to Thrive.These packages are perfect for: 🌟 Improving boundaries and unlearning the “fawn” response,
🌟
Healing attachment wounds and creating more openness to love,
🌟 Making more room for clear decisions and business success,

🌟
Refining communication skills for more harmony in relationship,
🌟
Deepening trust in your body intelligence and desires (so you dont need to rigidly plan everything or repeatedly find yourself in chaos making terrible decisions),
🌟
Shedding stress and the "rev" in the nervous system, so you base rate becomes more calm and settled, and live more smooth,
🌟
Or dealing with trauma or abuse history.

"Just WOW. Amanda is a gifted healer and therapist" - Naomi

"Amanda is magical. I have a much deeper ability to connect with my internal experience, integrate my subconscious drives, emotions and blocks, and emerge with epic readiness to thrive in business and relationships. She will help you move through your internal challenges to discover something deeper and more profoundly fulfilling than what you were anticipating. Lot's of Wow moments"
Asher
Embodied Business Coach
"I’m finding this work incredibly spiritual. Not in an obvious pointing and leading way.
But in a “soft opening and ground laying way”. Like guiding me to the moss where I can just melt
and rest in the soft greenness. It has always been there but I was too busy trying
to avoid the brunches in my way instead of looking down.Thank you for what you do".

Who this is For

This is for practitioners and seasoned travellers of the inner realms. For people who mentor and support their own clients and who desire mentorship and guidance to embody more of what they already know.

For all genders and identifications, these 1:1 sessions will meet you where you are with compassion and presence, while always pointing to what is good, strong and True in you.

If you've explored talk therapy to the ends of where it can take you. If you love embodiment and all things somatic and have done a reasonable amount of inner work on yourself, but still find yourself looping issues around boundaries, overwork or love and relationship, this is for you!

The Method

The 3 Layers

The Top Layer (that we often begin with) we meet the Parts of you running the show. 

Do you have an internal Pusher or Critic, making your life harder than it needs to be? Do you have a collapsed or rebellious inner child stalling your healthy momentum? 

We use Voice Dialogue like an internal relationship counselling session, and get the Parts of you working harmoniously together.

So you don’t get so pummelled by that inner critical voice. So you don’t need to rebel so strongly in order to find balance. So you can tend to your inner child with presence and true connection.

The Middle Layer is where we address the somatic and body memories you hold. 

We meet the automatic, programmed responses held in your nervous system and resolve trauma or attachment rupture on the level of your nervous system for foundational change.

This work is done with mindfulness, guided tracking and allowing frozen or stuck responses to unwind and express to resolution.

So you no longer react or shutdown when things are stressful. And you have more presence and ground as your foundational way of Being = more loving parenting or relationships, more patience and clear boundaries, and a much healthier sense of self in the world.

The Bottom Layer is your Essential Self. This is the “magic” of a session where your own Being does the healing/transformation for you. 

This layer is most accessible when you have mapped the Parts in you, and have learnt to regulate your nervous system responses so the undigested trauma from the past doesn’t take over. In this bottom layer, acceptance and Presence invite a radical transformation from the inside out – guided by your own Being.

And you make your own medicine, every time.

So your trust deepens that Life is intelligent and listening to you with benevolence. That under your challenges is fundamentally LOVE, and more and more, your willingness to be present for all of Life expands and gives joy to you and those you interact with

Before I began my 6 week package with Amanda, I believed that I had all the necessary tools to work with my own nervous system.But from the first session to the sixth, I am absolutely awe struck by Amanda and all her professional tools and skills. I felt held in a beautiful and safe container with deep respect, active listening and unconditional acceptance and love.I can honestly say that in 6 weeks my internal sense of myself and my nervous system has dramatically changed. I feel more integrated, have clearer boundaries, can rest more deeply in my own skin and an awakening of aliveness.Thank you Amanda with heart felt gratitude

Shiatsu therapist
"I loved the different somatic ways of accessing my experience, drawing, dialogue and staying with the somatic feeling. After my work with Amanda I have more awareness of what I really want and the different parts in me. Much more alignment with my feminine and masculine parts and how they now support each other. More integration of my different selves and more clarity on how I relate to others and in intimacy".
Simone Maus
This work has been helping me immensely. I feel held in a deep, nurturing and present way. On a practical level the PTSD I’ve been dealing with has reduced markedly… My nervous system feels soothed, I am generally calmer and no panic attacks since I started the sessions. Thank you Amanda

"Today with Amanda’s calm invitation to notice, and not follow my racing, busy thoughts, I became aware of how fear is driving them and how petrified I am of never getting to where I want or need to be! The mind does not want to hand over the reigns to God, essence life-force etc. But by slowing down and allowing fear to be present - I experienced a subtle and so gentle relaxation.
And right here I rediscovered a simplicity and awe of wonderment.
Thank you so much for holding such a steady loving opening space to rest, Amanda. I feel like I was hibernating and you were allowing the seed to gently, ever so slowly feel the warmth.
Then in it’s own time the seed could crack and bloom something so deep, rich, comfortable and nourishing

"I came to see Amanda because I had been numbing myself ,so as not to feel some very deep painful emotions. From the first 3 minutes of the first session I knew I had made the right decision to trust my emotional vulnerability with Amanda. I felt safe, and that enabled me to go deeply to feel my pain.
As we progressed I experienced better sleep and deeper rests. After 2 months the excruciating physical pain I was in daily has reduced so much that I have been pain free for a week now. My ability to relate in difficult situations has improved as I trust myself and learn that putting my needs for emotional safety first is OK. I have been going to the beach on my own again. Something I was unable to do the last 2 years. I have found out things about myself I didn't realise and thats always helpful. highly recommend Amanda. 

Her ability to hold you in a safe space and teach you how to hold yourself is her special gift. Everyone would benefit from her work as the tools she shares are invaluable life skills. This stuff should be taught in schools and we could create a stronger more connected society based on honest heartfelt connections."
