Somatic Coaching is a body‑based, evidence‑informed approach that blends traditional coaching with advanced somatic (body‑oriented) practices, offered through Unapologetically Robertson—a nervous‑system‑first mental‑wellness studio in Christchurch for bold, sensitive women. Grounded in science and self‑discovery, this method supports you to notice, process and transform emotional patterns through the wisdom of your own body—not just your thoughts.

Drawing on training from The Somatic School in London, this approach enhances self‑awareness by exploring the physical sensations tied to emotions, improves emotional regulation by calming the nervous system, reduces stress while increasing mental clarity, builds emotional resilience and supports trauma healing by working gently with what is stored in the body.​

Perfect for high-achievers, sensitives, or anyone feeling ‘out of sync,’ overwhelmed, or disconnected—especially women experiencing high‑functioning anxiety, burnout or chronic stress. Somatic Coaching is especially supportive if you are navigating burnout, chronic stress, emotional overwhelm, people‑pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, anxiety in the body, or feeling disconnected from yourself. It is also a powerful complement to therapy and other mental‑health supports.

Unlike traditional talk therapy, which often stays “in your head,” Somatic Coaching meets you where mind and body intersect. Sessions integrate gentle movement, breathwork, body awareness, and mindfulness to help shift stuck patterns, rebuild resilience, and support lasting change from the inside out.​

Somatic Coaching is especially supportive if you are navigating burnout, chronic stress, emotional overwhelm, people‑pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, anxiety in the body or feeling disconnected from yourself.

Somatic coaching in Christchurch with Unapologetically Robertson gives you a grounded, body‑based way to regulate your nervous system and rebuild resilience in real life.

• Regulating stress and calming anxiety

• Building emotional intelligence and resilience

• Releasing limiting beliefs held physically

• Restoring mind–body balance during life transitions (career, burnout, postpartum, reinvention)

• Improving self-trust, boundaries, and confidence

• Reconnecting with joy, pleasure, and vitality in your daily life.​

Sessions are collaborative and gently paced. You will be guided through simple yet powerful practices—such as breathwork, grounding, gentle movement, imagery and present‑moment awareness—to help you tune into your body’s signals and what they are trying to tell you. Together, we explore patterns, triggers and responses with curiosity, not judgement, so you can find new options where you previously felt stuck.

Across sessions, you build practical tools you can use between appointments, so regulation and resilience become part of everyday life—not just something that happens in the room.

No experience required. Come exactly as you are. Somatic Coaching is suitable for all bodies, backgrounds, and comfort levels. Wear comfortable clothes and bring curiosity.​
