somatic therapy for highly sensitive people

Your body holds the keys to your deepest healing.

a gentle approach

Somatic Therapy with Tanya Corrin is a gentle body-based approach to resolving anxiety, stress, and trauma. Using scientifically proven techniques, insights from polyvagal theory, and trauma resolution methods from Somatic Experiencing® (SE) and Inner Relationship Focusing (IRF), Tanya supports you and your nervous system to experience a felt sense of relative safety and stability that allows healing and transformation to occur.

When you work with Tanya, you don’t have to perform or explain — or even know what happened to you in the past that is causing your current challenges.

Slowly, you’ll grow more able to sit with parts of you that may be uncomfortable, even painful — parts of you which contain, often trapped inside, essential aspects of who you long to be, and who you are becoming.

Even when words are hard to find, something inside begins to shift. You are becoming more you. Together with Tanya, you are unbinding old stress and trauma patterns, integrating that previously bound energy into vitality and wellbeing and a body that is capable of healthy self-protection and aligned action.

“Tanya has been instrumental to my healing and helped to resolve past traumas. She is truly a gifted healer!”

Hi, i’m tanya

I’m a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner and Embodied Parts Practitioner (IRF/Focusing), offering body-based support for adults navigating trauma, overwhelm, and the impacts of early attachment wounding.

Before training in somatic therapy, I taught yoga and mindfulness in New York City for over a decade. I now assist in SEI’s professional training program and continue to deepen my learning through practice and community.

When I’m not seeing clients, you’ll likely find me cold-plunging in the Long Island Sound or thrifting with my two teenage daughters.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

  • "Recently, I was faced with some life-altering transitions that required me to thoroughly weigh my options. I sought out Tanya's support and wisdom - and I am so glad I did! Even while working with the most intense material, she steadily 'held the rope' for me to go down into my well of uncharted territory. Tanya's genuine and grounding presence, expert somatic help, and profound attunement supported my psyche and body to make healing quantum leaps, prompting some unforeseen but lasting changes."

    Annette Knopp, Meditation Teacher, Somatic Counselor, Co-Founder Blue Spirit Costa Rica

  • "Working with Tanya helped me get closer to the parts of myself that were protecting me, but also keeping me stuck. Our work was gentle, but so powerful. I was able to truly befriend parts of me that I thought I would always be at odds with, always an internal war that was using up so much of my energy. Since we started, I've been able to allow myself to honor my needs and really give myself the nourishment I need to heal. I've been able to learn how to be a good friend and partner to myself. That's something I'll treasure forever."

    Jonathan Mead, Somatic Movement Teacher

  • "Tanya has been instrumental in my healing and helped to resolve past traumas. She is truly a gifted healer!"

    Laura Futterman, ND

  • "Tanya’s work moves slowly and gently, and she takes her time to get to know your nervous system and you as a person. She truly listens to you and explains the intention behind an exercise or technique. I could share anything on my mind with Tanya without fear of judgment. After working with Tanya, my emotions no longer overtake me. Rather, I can see when I'm getting activated, notice my experience, and be with the feelings. I appreciate Tanya so much!"

    Tyla Taylor, High School Teacher

  • "Tanya is a gifted and highly trained somatic therapist with a tremendous ability to hold space for you and your process. I work with Tanya weekly and am amazed at her capacity for healing, offering resourcing, and helping me tap into my own wisdom. I highly recommend that anyone with high levels of post-traumatic stress work with her! In addition, if you want to know yourself more deeply, you would benefit from having some sessions with Tanya."

    Kanika Sethi, Psychodynamic Therapist & Somatic Practitioner

  • “I recommend working with Tanya Corrin with all of my heart. Merely being in her presence--whether remotely or in-person--is deeply calming and grounding, but her instinct for knowing what YOU, and only YOU need in order to become your most inspired and empowered self is what will make her your secret weapon. Tanya is a healer through and through; she is also a creative force herself, which makes her an extra-special guide for writers and artists.”

    Genevieve Field, Writing Coach, Ghostwriter, Editor

  • Dr. Danielle Greenman suggested I see Tanya Corrin for PTSD. I didn’t know much about somatic therapy when I started, and what struck me most about Tanya was how kind & respectful she was of me and that she was totally present during our sessions. I felt safe to let go and let her guide me to feel what I sensed in my body in relation to particular issues, or say anything that was on my mind. 

     I came in seeking to overcome my fear of death, anxiety over past relationships, and irritability. Through Tanya's caring guidance, I can say I hardly have any anxiety or irritability now. My fear of death has lessened, and I feel more confidence that when the time comes, I will be at peace with loving family members around me. 

    Marjorie Joffee 

  • “Tanya has an energy and presence that immediately allowed me to feel held. And seen. And heard. Deeply. I felt this new permission to allow myself to receive. I mean really receive.”

    Tara Gibson, Physical Therapist and Pelvic Wellness Expert

  • "Working with Tanya was a crucial next step for me in terms of being able to connect with my authentic self."
