Felt Sense Psychotherapy: Transform Your Mental Health Through the Body

At Felt Sense Psychotherapy (FSP), we believe that true healing begins in the body. While many therapy approaches focus primarily on thoughts and behaviours, felt sense psychotherapy emphasizes the importance of fully experiencing and processing emotions physically and emotionally. This emotion focused and somatic approach to therapy helps clients move beyond intellectual understanding to embody real, lasting change.

What is Felt Sense Psychotherapy?

Felt sense psychotherapy is a body-centered therapy developed from the work of Eugene Gendlin's Focusing. It’s based on the principle that the body holds emotional experiences—including stress, trauma, and unresolved feelings—that may not be accessible through cognitive processing alone.

Through guided sessions, clients learn to:

    •    Tune into the physical sensations of emotions

    •    Explore the meaning of these sensations in a safe environment

    •    Release trapped emotional energy to reduce stress and anxiety

    •    Build self-awareness, resilience, and emotional regulation

Unlike talk therapy alone, felt sense psychotherapy allows clients to experience emotions fully, rather than merely analyzing them. This deepens insight, fosters emotional healing, and creates real, long-term transformation.

Who Can Benefit from Felt Sense Psychotherapy?

FSP’s approach is effective for a wide range of challenges, including:

    •    Anxiety, stress, and panic disorders

    •    Depression and low mood

    •    Trauma, including childhood trauma and complex PTSD
