Online Somatic Therapy in Florida
You Don’t Have to Keep Pushing Through on Your Own
Online therapy for trauma, anxiety, and midlife stress throughout Florida.
You may understand yourself well and still find yourself reacting in ways you wish you could change.
Anxiety, trauma, chronic stress, and earlier experiences can leave lasting patterns that insight alone doesn't always shift.
I provide online therapy for adults throughout Florida who want an approach that works with both mind and body.
How Online Somatic Therapy Works
Somatic therapy brings your thoughts, emotions, and body into the work together. During sessions, we'll move between conversation and gentle somatic practices to notice what is happening in the present moment. That might include grounding, orienting, supporting different parts of your body, or simple movement, depending on what you're experiencing.
Because I work online with adults throughout Florida, you can attend sessions from wherever you have privacy and feel comfortable.
Many people begin to notice changes such as:
Feeling less pulled into automatic stress responses
Recognizing anxiety, tension, or shutdown sooner
Recovering more quickly after difficult moments
Feeling more connected to themselves and the people around them
What you might be Experiencing
-
Past experiences may not be on your mind every day, but you still notice their effects. You might find yourself becoming overwhelmed, shutting down, staying constantly on guard, or reacting more strongly than you'd expect. Your body continues to carry experiences that haven't fully settled.

You may spend a lot of time managing, anticipating, or trying to stay ahead of things, yet your body rarely feels at ease. You might notice tension, a racing mind, difficulty relaxing, or feeling pulled into stress more easily than you'd like.

Midlife can bring caregiving, career changes, relationship shifts, health concerns, or questions about what's next. It can also be a time when old patterns become harder to ignore and you begin wanting something to feel different.

Meet Your Florida Somatic Therapist
Hi, I'm Amy Hagerstrom.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP), providing online therapy for adults throughout Florida.
Like many of my clients, I spent years trying to understand myself through insight alone. Discovering Somatic Experiencing changed the way I understood myself and continues to shape the way I practice today.
If you're looking for therapy that includes both mind and body, I'd be honored to work with you.
What is Somatic Therapy
Somatic therapy brings your thoughts, emotions, and body into the work together. Along with conversation, we pay attention to how stress, anxiety, and trauma are showing up in your body and gently work with those patterns.
I primarily use Somatic Experiencing (SE), with the option of incorporating the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) or Rest and Restore Protocol (RRP) when appropriate.
