Carolyn Kutsko, PhD
Dr. Kutsko created the S.O.M.A Method from hundreds of her own client sessions. She is a licenced therapist and holds her PhD in Somatic Psychology with certificates in: EMDR, Relational Somatic Psychotherapy, Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy, BodyWay Emotional Eating Recovery, The Daring Way, Thai Massage, and Somatic Breathwork.
She wrote her dissertation on “Full Emotional Expression,” an exploration in relational support within catharsis, where she challenges theories cautioning expressive emoting and demonstrates through a phenomenological study the efficacy of relationally supported catharsis and the often miss-used and miss-understood use of "window of tolerance".
She describes S.O.M.A Method as a powerful processing sequence unwinding the contractions of the adaptive self through the voice of the body. She shares, "we can not verbally talk our way out of a non-verbal wound. The body must speak because implicit memory (where trauma and defensive strategies are stored) is experienced physiologically and conveyed through sensation and emotion, not words".
Dr. Kutsko’s SOMA Method™ training was both extremely informative and also engaging. She provided a mixture of interesting didactic education and experiential exercises demonstrating how to get clients unstuck and able to express what has been held inside. I feel I have lerned a whole new language.

I am so excited about the Soma Method Foundations course provided for my clients to help prepare them for this powerful work. An incredible bonus to becoming a Soma Method™ Practitioner.
