NA Touch – Neuro Affective Touch Therapy
Neuro Affective Touch Therapy – this is a blending together of talk / psychotherapy and somatic / body work. This approach respects the fact that the body stores trauma and has its own story to tell, as well as the mind, and attempts to integrate the two. This modality is especially effective in healing unresolved developmental trauma, particularly in older teens and adults, through the use of appropriate touch and self-touch. Younger children can also benefit from many aspects of this modality, although a parent or carer would need to be present and the sessions would be modified according to the developmental age of the child. Sessions are 70-80 mins in length.
