Somatic Therapy in Maryland

Supporting High-Achieving Black Women Ready to Reconnect With Themselves and Live Fully Again

There’s a point when holding everything together stops working. When the strength that once protected you starts to feel heavy. When success doesn’t feel like success anymore because you’re too overwhelmed, shut down, or numb to enjoy the life you’ve worked so hard to build.

Maybe you feel like you’re watching yourself live from the outside.
Maybe you’ve been moving through your days on autopilot.
Maybe you feel disconnected from your body, your joy, your voice, or your purpose.

You know how to take care of everyone else.
You’ve learned how to keep going, no matter what.
But deep down, you’re wondering:

“Who am I now?”
“Why do I feel so tired?”
“What would it feel like to just be… me again?”

If you are longing to feel like yourself again — and not just the version of you built on survival — you’re in the right place.

At Embodied Culture, we offer virtual somatic therapy for women across Maryland, supporting high-achieving Black women, therapists, healers, and helpers who are ready to step out of emotional survival and into embodied living.

This is a space where nothing has to be held alone..

Why Somatic Therapy?

Healing is not just a mindset shift — it’s a nervous system shift.

While talk therapy helps you understand the past, somatic therapy helps your body release the patterns you’ve been carrying so you can experience regulation, freedom, and connection from the inside out.

Through gentle, body-based work, somatic therapy helps you:

  • Interrupt cycles of burnout and emotional overwhelm

  • Shift out of shutdown, numbness, or dissociation

  • Calm anxiety and chronic tension

  • Build capacity for rest and authentic connection

  • Reconnect with your needs, limits, intuition, and voice

  • Feel safe being present instead of performing strength

This isn’t about coping better — it’s about healing deeply.

What We Support

  • Trauma & PTSD

  • Burnout, caregiving fatigue & overwhelm

  • Anxiety, chronic stress & overthinking

  • Emotional shutdown, numbness & disconnection

  • Identity loss & life transitions

  • People-pleasing & self-abandonment

  • High-functioning depression

If you’re tired of pretending you’re fine,
this is where you stop doing it alone.

Our Somatic & Attachment-Focused Approach

Our approach blends evidence-based, body-centered trauma healing with relational safety and nervous system repair, including:

  • Somatic Experiencing® (SE)

  • Dynamic Attachment Repatterning experience (DARe) for attachment rewiring & relational repair

  • Safe & Sound Protocol (SSP) to support nervous system stabilization & presence

  • Embodied emotional processing

  • Optional faith-integrated support for those who desire it

We move at the pace of your nervous system slowly, safely, and intentionally.

There is no pressure here, no perfection, no performance only space to unfold.

  • High-achieving Black women and women of color
