SOMATIC EMOTION THERAPY IN CAPE TOWN
You know what needs to change... Anxiety. Overthinking. High-functioning burnout. Patterns that keep repeating. So why is it so hard?
WHEN SELF REFLECTION ONLY GOES SO FAR
You’ve done the talk therapy. You've read the books. Sometimes understanding the problem isn't enough to change it.
Together, we’ll explore what your body may still be holding onto so you can feel calmer, clearer, and more like yourself again.
Emotions affect the body. Sometimes we carry emotional stress longer than we realise. When we process what’s underneath, life often feels lighter.
HAVE YOU NOTICED HOW EMOTIONS SHOW UP IN YOUR BODY?
Your nervous system’s primary job is to protect you. Even when an experience is over, your body can continue carrying the effects of it. Stress tightens your shoulders. Anxiety knots your stomach. Fear makes your chest feel tight.
WHY WORK WITH ME
You don't need to find the "right words". We simply start at a pace that feels comfortable and supportive using a combination of grounded, non-invasive modalities.

"I know what it feels like to live in a body that feels dyregulated, even when life looks perfectly fine from the outside."
Jacques Minnaar
Grounded in experience
This practice was built out of years of research; it came from my own journey of figuring out how the body holds stress and emotional experiences—and discovering that gentle, somatic regulation creates the shifts that willpower alone cannot.
Maybe you've carried it long enough... You don't need to have everything figured out before reaching out. If something on this page resonates with you, let's start there.
Somatic Emotion Therapy can support people experiencing anxiety, chronic stress, trauma, emotional overwhelm, burnout, and nervous system dysregulation by helping the body shift out of survival mode and into a more regulated state.
