Somatic Therapy in Surrey, BC
Andree Patenaude, RTC Relational Somatic Therapist ACCT #3270
You feel wired and tired at the same time, and the world feels out of control.
It’s hard to navigate your big feelings, so you hold them all in.
You shut down or numb out, and end up isolating from the people you love.
Does this sound familiar?
If this sounds like you, you're not alone.
Somatic therapy can help you reconnect with yourself and your body.
What a Session Feels Like:
In somatic therapy, you don’t have to retell your whole story.
Instead, we slow down and listen to what your body is saying.
Through sensation, breath, movement, and gentle awareness,
you begin to notice patterns — all of the ways you’ve been holding, bracing, or shutting down.
I help you to identify what your body's been holding onto.
Through experiential practices, you learn to track, release, and shape-shift.
Not to erase your past, but to help you reconnect with yourself and feel lighter...
so you can meet life with more presence and ease.

"As someone who has experienced intense anxiety since I was a child, I’ve gone through numerous types of therapy.
Andree has helped me to connect and be in tune with how my body is feeling when I’m anxious. Somatic therapy takes me out of my head and helps me to recognize how I’m feeling, where my body is holding the anxiety and to release it. My brain and body are connecting and working through memories and experiences together."

Somatic Therapy Can Help You....
✅
✅
✅
Having to explain everything all over again or relive the whole story.
We follow the body’s cues to understand what parts of your story are ready to be processed and released in each session.
Judgement, labels, or being put into a box.
Your story, identity, and experience are honoured here. This is a collaborative process guided by curiosity and possibility.
Overthinking, analyzing yourself, or needing another mindset shift.
This is not about fixing or reframing— it’s about feeling, sensing, and creating space to explore what’s true for you.

If you're here, you’ve probably already done a lot of inner work. You’re thoughtful, self-aware — maybe even the one others turn to for support.
But there's only so far you can go with reframing your thoughts, and now you're looking for something deeper.
I’m Andree (she/her), a certified Relational Somatic Therapist and Registered Therapeutic Counsellor.
At the time of my worst mental health, I needed an approach that didn't try to categorize or fix me.
What helped me navigate my big feelings, dissociation, anxiety, rage and panic... was learning to listen to my body.
With a background in human geography, harm reduction, community advocacy, and ongoing training in clinical somatics, I support people to unravel survival patterns, reconnect with themselves, and access the deep wisdom that lives within their bodies.
This a confidential and non-judgemental space for you to explore what you've been holding inside. This work is both nervous system-based and intuitive — and rooted in the belief that you are already whole.
Lets begin together.
Welcome!

Take the first step together: book a free 20 minute consult call with Andree.

There is no pressure to commit, just a conversation to see how I can help.
"Andree is kind, patient, attentive, supportive, and explains things clearly for those who like to understand the method behind the techniques.
My sessions with Andree are simply exquisite. She guides and supports with just the right amount which allows me to learn how to trust in how I feel. She is truly an intuitive and wonderful teacher and I consider myself very fortunate to work with her as I continue to explore the intricacies of my emotions."
