Somatic Psychotherapist
Shalini Cameron
I'm a somatic psychotherapist specialising in trauma, attachment and the relationship between our emotional experiences and the body.
My approach brings together an understanding of how our past experiences shape the way we feel, relate to others and experience ourselves in the present.
I work from a compassionate, body-oriented and integrative perspective, recognising that each person's experiences, needs and journey are unique.
How I Can Support You?
I work with women experiencing the lasting effects of complex trauma and chronic stress — including overwhelm, anxiety, exhaustion, chronic pain, difficulty feeling safe and patterns that continue to repeat within relationships.
Through somatic psychotherapy and nervous system education, we begin by understanding what your body has learned to protect against. From there, we build greater safety, capacity and connection at a pace your nervous system can work with.
Therapy, nervous system education and practical somatic resources.

TRAUMA THERAPIST | SOMATIC PSYCHOTHERAPIST | EDUCATOR
Hi, I’m Shalini, I’m so glad you’re here.
My work is shaped by professional training and lived understanding. Following my own experience of nervous system illness and recovery, I came to understand how deeply trauma and chronic stress can affect the body — and how important it is for healing to feel accessible, practical and safe.
This experience changed the direction of my work. I trained across psychology, sensorimotorpsychotherapy, somatic approaches and nervous system education, bringing these perspectives together to support women living with the lasting effects of complex trauma and chronic stress.
My approach begins with understanding. When we can recognise what the nervous system has learned, our patterns begin to make more sense. From there, we can introduce experiences that build greater safety, capacity and choice without forcing the body to move faster than it is ready for.
Ive worked with over 100 women in the last five years specialising in :
Complex trauma, CPTSD and the lasting effects of difficult or overwhelming experiences
Carry the imprint of trauma — whether from sudden shocks, childhood wounds, or years of chronic stress
Anxiety, hypervigilance and a nervous system that rarely feels able to settle
Chronic pain, functional symptoms, autoimmune conditions or persistent physical exhaustion
Burnout, overwhelm and the feeling of being continually tired yet unable to fully rest
Freeze, shutdown, dissociation or feeling disconnected from yourself and your body
Attachment wounds and repeated patterns within relationships
People-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries or feeling responsible for everyone around you
Shame, low self-worth and difficulty feeling safe enough to be seen or fully yourself
Grief, loss and significant life experiences that continue to be carried within the body
Alongside my therapeutic work, I create courses, workshops and carefully considered somatic resources that allow this understanding to reach beyond the therapy room.
You can begin with the support that feels right for you — through therapy, nervous system education, practical somatic resources or The Nervous System Sisterhood.
“I’ve walked that path and I’m here now to help guide you through yours” - Shalini
