WHAT I OFFER:

Nervous System Healing

At slow body somatics, I offer somatic therapy and bodywork designed to support nervous system regulation, emotional processing, and deeper connection to your body. This work is rooted in Somatic Intuitive Healing®, a trauma-informed, presence-based approach that blends elements of:

Somatic Experiencing

This work is gentle, nourishing, and deeply relational to support your system in unwinding patterns of stress, tension, and overhwhelm. What makes SIH® unique is the meaningful integration of bodywork, somatic parts work, trauma awareness, and presence. All sessions are grounded in:

Slowing down the nervous system

Listening to the body rather than overriding it

Supporting natural resolution rather than forcing change
Gender affirming care

Our work together is a relational process, where change happens through presence, pacing, and attunement. You will be held in deep listening, attention, and care as you are carefully guided to connect more deeply to your own inner wisdom.

WHAT IS SOMATIC THERAPY?

Somatic therapy is a body-based approach to healing that works directly with the nervous system

Rather than focusing only on thoughts or symptoms, this work supports your body in processing stored stress and trauma, increasing capacity for regulation, reconnection with sensation and internal awareness, and restoring a sense of safety and ease.

This approach is especially helpful for people experiencing anxiety or chronic stress, burnout or emotional overwhelm, trauma or PTSD, chronic tension or pain, gender dysphoria, and disconnection from the body.

Your session may include:

Attuned craniosacral touch

Somatic awareness and tracking

Somatic parts work

Breath or movement exercises
Verbal reflection or integration

ABOUT ME:

hannah rubin, SIH is a certified Somatic Intuitive Healing® practitioner and educator in Los Angeles, CA/Tovangar. hannah specializes in Somatic IFS parts-work, nervous system regulation, holistic emotional wellness, biodynamic practice, and embodied intuition. A queer artist and writer, hannah is fascinated by the animal nervous system and how it intersects with philosophy, spirituality, theory, art, and the psyche. Their work is focused in Los Angeles/Tovangar where they run an experimental writing school, teach group somatics workshops, work with clients one-on-one, and co-host a monthly local radio show.

hannah has trained with Somatic Intuitive Healing Training Center (Portland, OR), The Life Energy Institute (Los Angeles, CA), Internal Family Systems International’s Open Circle Program, Peter Levine, Kai Cheng Thom, Sarah Peyton, The Embody Lab, and Alternatives to Violence Project. They hold an interdisciplinary MFA from California Institute in the Arts, where their work engaged with dams, rivers, and reservoirs as landscapes shaped by blockage and extraction, thinking alongside trauma, bodies, and what it means to turn a river into a reservoir and insist it is a lake. This inquiry continues to inform their somatic and creative work.

hannah has experience supporting folks with anxiety, depression, complex emotional trauma, religious trauma, unprocessed grief, neurodivergence, and providing gender affirming care. They especially love working with members of the trans and queer community, of which they are a proud member.

My prayer with this work is to support you in finding the safety in your body that you deserve and to help you believe, on a cellular level, that you are deeply worthy of love.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

That said, everyone’s needs and schedules are different. If a regular rhythm isn’t possible right now, one-off sessions are also available as a meaningful way to connect with the work or receive focused support.
