Specializing in Complex Trauma, Anxiety, & Depersonalization / Derealization

Perhaps from the outside you look like you're holding it all together, while inside you feel trapped in survival mode, watching life from behind a pane of glass that traditional talk therapy can't seem to reach.
Somatic Therapy for
Complex Trauma in Boulder County
Hi, I’m George.
I approach therapy through a somatic and attachment based lens that goes beneath symptoms to get at what’s actually shaping patterns and distress. This perspective is rooted in the body and in early relational experience.
Healing here is about creating safety, building connection, and moving at a grounded pace so you can feel at home in yourself. Based in Niwot, I provide specialized, in-person care for individuals across the greater Boulder and Longmont regions looking to move beyond traditional talk therapy.
When Insight Doesn’t Lead to Change
While many who find their way to Solroot Counseling are just discovering therapy, some arrive having already done years of work on themselves. They may have a deep intellectual sense of their patterns and have gained important insights, but they are still left wondering why they don’t actually feel better in their daily lives.
Often, the missing piece is addressing complex trauma. Along with attachment wounding, trauma doesn’t just live in our stories, thoughts, or beliefs… it lives in the nervous system. The human body can stay trapped in survival mode long after the external danger has passed, shaping chronic anxiety, dissociation, and behavioral patterns in ways that traditional talk therapy simply cannot reach.
These symptoms are not flaws or failures of willpower. They are highly intelligent survival strategies created in your past, designed to protect you when there wasn't enough safety around you.
A Different Approach to Trauma Therapy
Many of us carry the heavy weight of unintegrated trauma without realizing it. If you are ready to try an approach that honors the deep wisdom of your body, you are in the right place. Let's connect to see how we can help your nervous system return to a state of ease.
