Integrative Anxiety or Depression Support
Most anxiety or depression sufferers reside almost completely in their minds. Somatic coaching strengthens the bodily connection, bringing you to the present moment, and supports the development of everyday coping skills. I offer integrative coaching sessions, focusing on skills-based outcomes to support clients in supporting themselves.
Parts Work (IFS)
I'm an IFS-informed practitioner, which is an evidence-based psychotherapy modality grounded in the idea that we all have parts, which can be forced into extreme roles due to life experiences. Working with these parts can help us heal and reconnect to self. These parts are often connected to bodily sensations and feelings of shame, doubt, inadequacy, and fear.
Somatic Experiencing
Receive support, whether you are going through life transitions, wanting to recover from trauma, managing relationships, or experiencing symptoms of anxiety, stress or grief. A form of alternative therapy, Somatic Experiencing is a body-oriented form of therapy designed to heal trauma and other stress disorders.
Kundalini Yoga
I offer private Kundalini sessions individually or as part of somatic therapy (if requested). Kundalini yoga (also called the Yoga of Awakening) is a form of yoga that uses very basic poses in combination with breathwork to support healthy functioning of your energetic body and the nervous system.
Nicole St.Pierre
Integrative Somatic Practitioner
Somatic Experiencing teaches us that we sense the world with so much more than the stories we tell ourselves. Our meaning-making, which is largely used in psychotherapy, is just one way of processing our experiences . We can also process and explore our sensations, our emotions, imagery, and our behaviour, or movement. ​

Actually, our bodily experience is as integral to our sense of Self as our mind is. Unfortunately, we are taught from a young age to prioritize our minds and when we detach from our bodies, we separate from ourselves as well. Engaging with your body and bodily sensations can repair trauma, help to heal attachment, relieve with chronic pain, and alleviate anxiety and depression.
