Meet Isabella Houareau
Hi! My name is Isabella Houareau - a Somatic Therapist based in Seychelles and offering online therapy. I am passionate about mind-body healing and a firm believer that each human being possesses the power to heal into wholeness- body, mind and self.
I am intrigued by the unique qualities of each person I meet! As a Somatic Therapist who is informed by the approach of Compassionate Inquiry, I endeavor to empower others by creating a safe space for people to express themselves openly, figure out who they are, and explore what they truly want out of life.
How I can help you
Life comes with many challenges and it is easy to feel trapped by our physical and emotional stress. We may feel disconnected from our family, jobs and life in general. It is even more stressful when we are constantly suffocated by our emotional suffering but we cannot comprehend where it is coming from (our mind, body and self are not in a state of balance). Because of this; we feel anxious, burnt out, and unable to experience joy.
What is Somatic Therapy?
Somatic Therapy is a body-centered therapy that looks at the connection of mind and body. It is a therapeutic approach that engages body awareness as a powerful tool. It combines both traditional talk therapy and physical therapies and techniques for holistic healing.
My approached is inspired by Compassionate Inquiry, a somatic psychotherapeutic approach, developed by Dr. Gabor Mate. I also incorporate:
Principles of Spiritual Psychology
Mindfulness
Somatic Awareness Training
Guided visualisations
Meditation
Yin Yoga
Kundalini Yoga
Breathwork
Reiki
I am a certified Compassionate Inquiry Practitioner. My intention is to meet you with respect, kindness and presence, wherever you may be on your journey, and to accompany you , towards a deeper understanding of yourself. In my life, Compassionate Inquiry has led me down an incredible path of self discovery, where I continue to reconnect with love and acceptance for myself. My wish is that you too, reconnect with your wholeness.
My session take place online.
