The Somatherapy Collective is a trauma-informed, body-based healing space for those who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or like they are carrying more than they can process alone.

This work supports you to reconnect with your body, restore your nervous system, and move what has been held through somatic therapy, matrilineal repair, attachment, parts work, and rage work.

If you’ve done the talking and something still feels stuck - this is where we begin to work differently.

Welcome to The Somatherapy Collective: A Sanctuary for Deep Healing, Empowerment,
and Reclamation.

Our Work Together

This is not just therapy; this is revolution.

Why I do this work

How I work

What this work makes possible

I don’t believe you are broken.

I believe your body has adapted intelligently to everything it has lived through and what it has inherited.

My work is grounded in supporting you to:
• feel safe in your body
• process what has been held
• expand your capacity to feel and respond
• reconnect with your power, purpose, and pleasure

This is not about forcing change.
This is about creating the conditions for your body to release, reorganise, and return to flow.

Many of the people who come into this space feel like they have tried everything.

They understand their patterns.
They’ve done therapy.
They’ve done the mindset work.

And yet, something still isn’t shifting.

Because what they are carrying is not just cognitive.
It is held in the body.
And often, it is inherited.

This is where this work becomes essential.

My approach integrates:

• Somatic therapy - working directly with the nervous system
• Attachment work - restoring safety in connection and relationships
• Parts work - meeting and integrating the different parts of self
• Rage work - safely accessing and moving anger held in the body
• Matrilineal repair - addressing inherited relational and emotional patterns

This is slow, intentional, relational work, centred on humanity and decolonisation.
And it creates real, lasting change.

Over time, this work supports you to:

• feel grounded and safe in your body
• move out of overwhelm and reactivity
• build emotional capacity and resilience
• set boundaries and trust yourself
• feel connected to your body, your truth, and your life
• access your power, purpose, and pleasure

This is not surface-level change.
This is a shift in how you experience yourself and the world.

About Me

A woman with long brown hair is standing outdoors on a beach, smiling and laughing. She is wearing a white tank top with a tropical scene and the words "Cuba" on it, a long mustard-colored skirt, and a light embroidered jacket.

I’m Briony, somatic psychotherapist and founder of The Somatherapy Collective.

My work is grounded in both lived experience and over 20 years in therapeutic practice, alongside ongoing study in psychotherapy. I support people in healing trauma, restoring their nervous systems, and reconnecting with their bodies through somatic, attachment, parts, and rage work, alongside matrilineal repair.

This work is deeply personal to me. I understand firsthand the impact of trauma, the mother wound, and the experience of carrying more than you can process alone. Through my own journey of healing ancestral patterns, navigating relational wounds, and reclaiming my body, I’ve come to know that true change happens when we move beyond managing symptoms and begin working with what is held underneath.

I work with those who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or like they are holding more than they can carry - supporting them to return to flow, connection, and a deeper sense of power, purpose, and pleasure.

Why Book a Session?

If you’re here, it’s because you know something needs to change. Perhaps you’ve been stuck in the same patterns for years, trapped in cycles of emotional overwhelm, anxiety, or trauma that feel unmanageable. Maybe you’re seeking a deeper connection to your body and intuition, or you feel a strong pull to finally heal the motherline that has shaped your life.

When you book a session with Briony Montgomery, you’re choosing to:

  • Feel seen, heard, and held in a safe, non-judgmental space

  • Reconnect with your body to heal emotional wounds and trauma

  • Release what no longer serves you and step into your true self

  • Experience personalised, somatic therapy and practices designed just for you

  • Regain your power and create a life filled with clarity, peace, and joy

Together, we will explore the pain, fear, and limiting beliefs you’ve been carrying. We’ll gently guide you through somatic practices and healing rituals that allow you to access your body’s innate wisdom and reclaim your voice.

If you’ve found your way here, something in you already knows.

Knows this isn’t about doing more.
Knows something deeper is ready to move.

You don’t need to wait until it gets worse.
