What’s the difference between a coping skill and a somatic resource, and why does that distinction matter in the therapy room?
This month’s Therapists’ Third Place virtual networking chat is all about Somatic Resourcing vs. Coping Skills, with a practical focus on how to help clients move beyond symptom management and into a more embodied experience of safety, support, and regulation.
We’re welcoming Myra Hurtado to share:
The difference between coping skills and somatic resources
Why somatic resourcing matters in trauma-informed therapy
How to identify resources that feel meaningful and accessible to clients
Ways to help clients move from thinking about a resource to actually embodying it
Practical ideas for using somatic resourcing to support regulation, grounding, and deeper therapeutic work
