Why Try Therapy in Motion?
If you’ve tried traditional therapy but still feel stuck, you’re not alone.
Therapy in Motion uses light movement to get your heart rate up to prepare your body for healing conversations. By starting with gentle physical activity, your body enters a state that mirrors how trauma feels.
Then, as your body naturally calms, your mind begins to link difficult memories with a sense of safety and relief.
How It Works
1. Gentle Movement (5 minutes)
We’ll start with light exercise — like jogging in place, jumping jacks, or skipping — enough to feel warm and a little activated.
2. Talk Therapy in a New State
While your body shows safe stress signals, we begin exploring difficult memories or emotions.
3. Integration & Relief
As your body recovers and relaxes, your mind connects those challenging thoughts with calm instead of panic.
The Benefits
✔ Feel in control of your healing process
✔ Reduce the risk of retraumatization
✔ Break the cycle of avoidance — therapy feels safer
✔ Pair trauma work with the “afterglow” of exercise
✔ Build lasting resilience in both body and mind
Who It’s For
-
Adults who want a new approach to processing trauma
-
People who haven’t fully connected with traditional talk therapy
-
Anyone physically able to do a few minutes of light cardio
(No equipment or gym needed — just your body and a safe space.)
About Me

“I was in a spin class when it happened. My heart was pounding and suddenly, tears were rolling down. I realized movement could unlock what my mind had been holding back. That moment inspired me to create Therapy in Motion, so others could safely access the same breakthroughs.”
