Somatic Attachment Coaching for Embodied Healing in Relationships
Somatic Work - Attachment Theory - Internal Family Systems
At Lindsey Bourne Coaching, I take an integral approach to working with clients—integrating the mind, body, and spirit.
I incorporate a range of theoretical frameworks and modalities including somatic work, attachment theory, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) in order to identify where you are holding yourself and your relationship back and how to liberate yourself from your early childhood wounds and/or past relationship experiences.
Together, these methods will uncover the roots of your limiting self-beliefs, attachment wounds, and stuck emotions, allowing for profound transformations in your relationships so that you can finally break free of your relational patterns and create/sustain the connection and intimacy that you know is possible.
Somatic Work
I work with you somatically by guiding you to connect with the wisdom of your body, using techniques that help access, process, and release stored emotions and memories. Through the lens of Polyvagal Theory, we’ll explore how your nervous system responds to stress, conflict, and connection, helping you shift from survival states (fight, flight, freeze, fawn) into a place of greater safety, openness, and ease. This approach ensures we’re not just talking about these patterns, we’re actually shifting them—in your body and subconscious mind—in real time.
Attachment Theory
I work through the lens of attachment theory by exploring how early caregiver relationships and past experiences have shaped your attachment style, emotional responses, and patterns in relationships. Together, we’ll uncover how these subconscious dynamics influence connection, conflict, and self-worth. By bringing awareness to these patterns, you will gain the tools to shift from reactivity to security, fostering deeper intimacy, emotional regulation, and more fulfilling relationships.
IFS
I use IFS to help you explore and build compassionate relationships with the different “parts” of yourself—those carrying wounds, protective roles, strong emotions, or critical voices. By fostering understanding and harmony within these parts, especially the ones that get activated in relationship, you will gain greater self-awareness and clarity in your relationships as well as tools to take care of your wounded, protective parts, in order to shift repetitive relational dynamics once and for all.
