Ana Liz Ceregatti, RSMT/E

Hi, I'm glad you're here!

I'm a Somatic Movement Therapist and Educator, and an Embodiment Facilitator trained in Expressive Arts Therapy.

I support processes of self-discovery, healing, and personal growth through body-rooted and research-backed methods.

Together, we re-member the wisdom of your body and use your creative expression to make your unconscious more known, elaborate on deeper issues, integrate past and present, and develop resources and skills to navigate emotions and life's challenges feeling grounded, connected, and supported.

WHY SOMATIC ARTS?

In traditional therapies, we often spend a lot of time talking about feelings and not enough time feeling and being with them. In somatic arts therapy, the emphasis is on what is showing up in your experience now. We ask: What does your experience of yourself, your body, and the world around you today have to say?

This approach allows your present experience to inform and transform the patterns and defense mechanisms that have carried over from earlier years.

 

Instead of merely talking about these issues, the somatic-expressive arts encourages you to engage with them creatively and actively. The focus is less on asking, "Why do I do what I do?" and more on practicing how to build new possibilities of feeling, thinking, and behaving.

HOW I SUPPORT YOU

In a nutshell, I listen deeply not just to your words but also to the unconscious cues and subtle messages your body communicates, offering ways to explore and process what emerges.

I guide you to become aware of meaningful aspects of your experience and expression that might otherwise go unnoticed, supporting you in gaining self-awareness, a sense of embodiment, and autonomy. This allows you to tap into your own capacity for healing and expanding yourself and your life.
