Read this amazing personal story of a Licensed Clinical Social Worker becoming balanced and whole again through Sensorimotor Psychotherapy.
As a licensed marriage and family therapist working for many years with traumatized clients, I feel that I know the vast benefits of therapy. Working with Marie Davis in my own therapy, however, has been and continues to be a life changing process more than I could have ever imagined. Marie utilizes Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, a therapeutic model to really dig deep and address both attachment issues, or issues from our childhood, as well as trauma we have experienced such as an abusive relationship, difficult marriage, accident or even something as horrific as rape. She has helped me to peel back the layers so to speak of my own trauma to address my struggles on a cognitive, emotional and sensory level so I can once again become balanced and whole. Therapy with Marie has brought “new meaning” to “old hurts” so I can move past irritability, depression, anger and even physical pain in my body towards a once again happy and healthy Kelly. If you yearn for things to be different in your life, relationships to be whole again, thoughts to be clear with intention and to move past a history of trauma, Marie Davis can help you reach that place.

Our bodies are continually communicating information. Research has shown that at least 80% of communication is non-verbal. Sensorimotor psychotherapy is a form of body based psychotherapy that can help to unlock old thought, feeling, and behavioral patterns that get stored in the body. From a young age, many of us developed beliefs, relational styles, and feelings that are now hidden inside of our ‘personality’ and held in our body. In order to get access to these old unconscious belief systems, we work to access them through the body, so that we can get to the ‘root’ of the problem.
