Somatic Therapy For Kids: How Parents, Therapists, and Teachers Can Help Children Heal Anxiety, Trauma, and Stress Through Body Awareness and Connecti (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798269839240)

Help children reconnect with calm, confidence, and safety starting from the body.

In Somatic Therapy for Kids, child therapist and educator Rowan Mason introduces a compassionate, body-based approach to supporting children through anxiety, trauma, and emotional overwhelm. Rooted in neuroscience and trauma-informed care, this book shows parents, therapists, and teachers how to help children regulate their nervous systems and rebuild trust in themselves and others.

Through vivid real-life examples, simple practices, and step-by-step guidance, Somatic Therapy for Kids teaches readers how to:

• Recognize how stress and trauma show up in a child's body

• Use breath, movement, and gentle touch to restore calm

• Foster emotional awareness through play and creativity

• Support co-regulation at home, in therapy, and in the classroom

• Create environments where safety and connection thrive

Both practical and deeply empathetic, this book bridges science and compassion helping adults understand that healing doesn't start with words, but with presence.

Whether you're a parent seeking better ways to support your child, a teacher navigating emotional outbursts, or a therapist integrating somatic tools into your practice, Somatic Therapy for Kids offers clear, actionable methods to help children feel grounded, connected, and free.

Safety begins in the body. This book shows you how to nurture it, one breath, one moment, one child at a time.
