Virtual vs. In-Person Sessions: Can Online Somatic Therapy Feel Just as Powerful?




In today’s ever-evolving world, the question often arises: Are virtual sessions as effective as in-person sessions? As someone who deeply values the connection I share with my clients, I can say I love the energy of being together in person; however virtual sessions hold their own unique magic. 



Many of my clients have experienced beautiful transformations through virtual sessions, proving that distance does not dilute the power of our work together. I myself have had profound shifts form this work as the client with other practitioners via online. In fact, the comfort of being in a familiar environment—whether that’s curled up on your own bed with your favorite blanket and pillows, or in your cozy living room—can enhance the experience significantly. Being in a safe space allows for deeper relaxation, enabling you to engage fully in the process. Now that safe space could be your bed, couch, office, or even the car. It doesn’t have to look perfect for it to work. 


One of the most profound aspects of virtual sessions is the accessibility. Many clients who live close to my in-person location often choose virtual sessions simply for the convenience. This flexibility removes barriers, allowing more individuals to prioritize their healing and personal growth. 


When we connect virtually, the work remains deeply transformative. Releasing limiting beliefs, processing trauma, and navigating emotions are just as powerful online. Allowing us to focus and shift the mindset towards the internal journey, empowering you to tap into the wisdom that resides within. This inner connection is crucial for releasing unprocessed emotions, which in turn allows you to step into your fullest potential.




The beauty of virtual sessions lies in their adaptability. Whether you’re in your pajamas, sipping tea, or nestled in your favorite chair, the space you create for yourself is conducive to deep healing. It’s about meeting you where you are and supporting you in your journey, regardless of the medium.



As we continue to embrace this digital age, it’s essential to remember that connection transcends physical proximity. The energy, intention, and commitment to growth remain constant, whether we’re sitting across from each other in a room or connecting through a screen. The virtual platform is simply another way for us to explore your inner landscape together.


In conclusion, while I cherish the moments spent in person, the magic of virtual sessions is undeniable- it's definitely there. Allowing  for a deeper connection to your body and emotions, fostering the release of what no longer serves you. Together, we can navigate the path to your greater wisdom and fullest potential—no matter the distance. 


So, if you’re considering a virtual session, I encourage you to embrace it. The journey towards healing and self-discovery awaits, right from the comfort of your own space. And if you're still not for sure , book a consultation call and let's chat about any worries and see if it is a good fit for you!





Big Love, Meg
