FAQ
Q: What makes somatic narrative facilitation different from traditional therapy?
A: Traditional therapy primarily operates from the neck up, focusing on analyzing thoughts. Somatic narrative facilitation recognizes that our deepest stories, trauma, and creative blocks are held in the body. By combining body awareness with creative storytelling frameworks, we bypass cognitive loops to create immediate, cellular shifts. It should be noted that these sessions are not meant to replace therapy.
Q. Our members and clients are not artists or writers. Are these sessions for them?
A: Absolutely. You do not need any background in the arts to experience the benefits of a Story as Medicine session. "Storytelling" in this container isn't about writing a book or painting a masterpiece; it is simply the tool we use for self-reflection, personal alignment, and emotional processing.
Q: How many sessions are needed before our clients see a shift?
A: While many clients report feeling a profound sense of relief and grounding after their very first session, sustainable transformation happens over time. I typically recommend a container of 3 months (12 sessions) to fully integrate these somatic practices and solidify your new internal narrative.
