Relational Somatic Processing Group for Adult Survivors of Childhood Abuse/Trauma
** New group forming for adult survivors of childhood trauma. Estimated to begin April 2026 **
Find commonality, learn by listening to your body and connecting with others. Experience what it feels like to give and receive empathy, compassion, and acceptance. Whatever you’ve been through, whatever you struggle with, you can talk about it here. The embodied community built among group members helps to promote safety, decrease shame and repair attachment wounds.
This relational and somatic therapy group helps people process, in community, the overwhelming experiences of childhood trauma, including physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, gaslighting or manipulation, and negligence.
Show up exactly as you are, say what you need to say. Find commonality and learn by listening and connecting with others. Experience what it feels like to give and receive empathy, compassion, and acceptance. Whatever you’ve been through, whatever you struggle with, you can talk about it here. The safe community built among group members helps to decrease shame and repair attachment wounds. Choose being seen/heard, disrupt protective patterns of withdrawal and isolation.
Consistent participation in this relational processing group can help you:
- Feel more embodied, seen, heard, and connected
- Increase self-acceptance, decrease guilt/shame
- Build mindfulness (of body-emotions-mind interactions) and resourcing (calming nervous system) skills
- Develop insight into (and ability to shift) habitual relational patterns
- Be in the present moment, living more fully and authentically
- Cultivate your voice, using this embodied facilitated environment to develop the skill of assertiveness
Group structure:

Group Facilitator:
- Nikki Williams, LPC brings a relational somatic approach that is direct and open. She is a developmental (childhood) trauma specialist (and survivor) whose intuitive style is grounded in mindful nervous system resourcing, somatic-focus, self-compassion, attachment, and polyvagal theories. These pillars guide participants toward self-discovery by providing space to be vulnerable and embodied with others, while also learning about themselves through interactions and varied perspectives.
Requirements:
- Joining a therapy group is different than starting individual therapy. We require you to meet with the group’s facilitator at least two (2) times (maybe 3) for brief individual screening sessions to ensure you, the facilitator, and the group are a good fit for your personal goals.
- The two-three (2-3) individual 30-minute screening sessions to explore joining the group are $50/each and are scheduled after a free 15-minute discovery consultation with the facilitator.
