Sensorimotor Art Therapy
Clay Field Therapy
Clay Field Therapy is a trauma-informed, sensory-motor approach that engages both body and mind through direct, hands-on interaction with clay. By working with the texture, resistance, and movement of clay, clients access deep, nonverbal layers of experience often stored in the body.
This process supports the healing of trauma, helps repair developmental interruptions or deficits, and fosters a sense of grounding, safety, and self-regulation. It allows clients to rebuild inner strength and restore natural patterns of growth and connection at their own pace.
Neurological research shows that trauma is stored in the body and needs to be treated through physical therapies. ​ Sensorimotor Art Therapy helps by regulating the nervous system, building resources, encouraging active responses to past events, and addressing developmental needs.
Clay Field Therapy is touch therapy with a focus on haptic perception; a breakthrough modality, endorsed by leading somatic experts.
