Hey, I'm Alena

(like, ah-lane-ah)

I help women and mothers come home to themselves with somatic therapy so they can start enjoying their lives again.
 
I believe there are two fundamental things that stop women from feeling good in early midlife — depletion and disconnection.

But once these are tended to, everything else gets easier — running a successful business; thriving at work; showing up as the best human, partner, friend, or mother possible; or simply enjoying the life you already have.

Book a connection call and access my powerful framework so you can start feeling like yourself again.

What is somatic therapy? 


Somatic therapy (sometimes called somatic experiencing therapy) aims to treat mental and emotional health concerns, even PTSD, through the connection of body and mind. This approach is effective in helping to release stress, tension, and trauma through the body. 
 

Rather than a top-down approach working through the mind to effect change in the body, somatic therapy is flipped the other way. Somatic practices centre on the body, and set up strong connections between body and mind (or within the 'body-mind'). 

Somatic Experiencing is a term coined by Dr Peter Levine, but the practices used in somatic therapies span centuries of healing practices used in cultures all over the world. 

Unlike standard mental health therapy, such as, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, which focuses predominantly on the mind, somatic sessions often includes body-oriented modalities such as movement, breathwork, and meditation to support healing in both the mind and the body. Somatic therapy sessions also include talk therapy and mind-body exercises. 

These sessions are proven to assist in the  treatment of grey-area or non-specific energy or health concerns, unhlepful patterns of behaviour, and emotions arising from traumatic events. 

Feel-Good Womanhood

Life can get complicated — and it can be difficult to show up as the kind of partner, friend, worker, or parent we want to be without sacrificing our own needs.

Old hurts and frustrations got dredged up and spill over in the worst ways.

After many years of feeling lost, lonely, single, and bereft of any lasting stability, I found my way back to a deeply fulfilling, authentic and purposeful experience of motherhood in midlife. 

We may be struggling but that doesn't mean we are broken. It means we have not yet found the right support....

I specialise in supporting women to interrupt the cycle of burnout and reconnect to their innate personal power for good.

And I've been doing just that, since 2009. As a member of the International Institute of Complimentary Therapists, I am committed to upholding industry standards of excellence.

Since 2009, the Soul Mama brand has been synonymous with communities set up by women and mothers, for women and mothers.
