Alma Brock

Hello, I’m Alma. I’m a human like you, walking on this earth and experiencing this interesting journey that we call life.

I’m an Integrative Somatic Therapist, who supports people to reconnect mind, body, and soul. I believe that at our core we all are love and that the experiences we’ve had in life, including the protective mechanisms that emerged as a result, have led to us forgetting our true essence.

I reckon every person can live a fulfilling life, which is the purpose of my work. I use a modality called Spinal Energetics as well as embodiment practices, and person-centred somatic therapy to help people find their way back home to themselves so they can live a life they love.

For years I experienced life as a struggle. Since I can remember I’ve felt emotions quite deeply; however it’d feel intolerable to be with them because I didn’t know how. As a result, I developed an eating disorder and body image challenges, I experienced suicidal thoughts at times, I had many interpersonal relationships with poor boundaries, and overall I had no sense of self.

This is something that I see a lot in my work; people don’t get taught how to regulate their emotions and tend to their nervous system. What ends up happening is people find adaptive strategies to get through life, which only work in the short term, leaving them feeling in despair in the long term.

These days, I love myself and my life. It touches my heart to say this because I never thought it’d be possible. Being able to experience this deep love and a sense of peace every day (knowing how I used to feel) has confirmed to me that lasting change is possible, which is what my work is about.
