Caroline Gebhardt, LPC

I am a somatic psychotherapist who enjoys helping people with their relationship to food, body image, motherhood and parenting. I draw upon nervous system science, attachment theory and trauma-informed body-based therapy to help individuals and families feel deeply nourished in their bodies and lives.

I believe connecting to the body's wisdom can be a rich source of healing, nourishment and integration. As a somatic psychotherapist, I blend talk therapy with body-based techniques to help clients rediscover their innate wisdom and hunger for life. Sometimes our head says one thing while our body knows another. Habitual coping mechanisms, compulsive behaviors or messy relational dances can be signs of deeper relational needs to fulfill. Instead of getting caught in a spiral of thoughts or prescriptive “shoulds,” inviting curiosity and slowly reconnecting with the body allows clients to become more aware of their unique bodily rhythms, gut instincts and deeper hungers. Using a relational, trauma-sensitive, and nervous system-informed approach, I incorporate mindfulness, movement and expressive arts practices to help clients find a deeper sense of nourishment from the inside-out.
