About Home Body Counseling
A somatic therapy practice helping busy, high-functioning adults break free from chronic stress, anxiety, & trauma
Specialized Somatic Therapy
Home Body Counseling was created out of a deep understanding that past experiences & trauma aren’t just something we think about—it’s something we feel, hold, and carry in our bodies. Many of my clients spent years in talk therapy, gaining insight but still feeling stuck in patterns of anxiety, overwhelm, and relational struggles. For deeper healing, we work directly with your body and nervous system using somatic-based therapies, such as Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, and Brainspotting.
Home Body Counseling offers specialized trauma therapy tailored for busy adults seeking effective, time-efficient healing. EMDR & Brainspotting Intensives provide deep trauma processing in a focused, accelerated format without the need for weekly sessions. Somatic Experiencing Touch Therapy uses gentle, hands-on support to release stored trauma and restore ease in the body. Supportive Somatic Therapy offers ongoing guidance to help clients feel grounded, navigate emotions, and strengthen relational skills. Each approach is designed to meet you where you’re at while creating meaningful, lasting change.

Hi, I’m Sarah Shelton, LPC. I founded Home Body Counseling to help others recover and heal from the life-sucking impacts of accumulated stress & trauma.
I know the pain of trauma wounds because I’ve experienced it. For years, I felt stuck in patterns of anxiety, people-pleasing, and a sense of unworthiness. Once I discovered trauma-focused, somatic therapies, I began to make profound shifts in my ability to set healthy boundaries, value myself, and feel safe to connect deeply with others. My healing journey drives my passion for helping others do the same.
