Has anyone tried somatic therapy?

General Question/Discussion

Hi everyone! I’m curious, has anyone tried somatic therapy before?

I seem to be the type who intellectualizes my emotions. It’s not that I don’t feel, I do, it’s just that I put a word to it first, and then I feel. It’s hard for me to experience the feeling of my emotions without intellectualizing them first. I’ve been learning more about somatic therapy and it seems like something that could help me, but I’m also afraid that it could be harmful for somebody like me who has to analyze before I feel.

Has anyone tried somatic therapy? If so, what was your experience with it?
