My name is Shalini Cameron. I’m a psychotherapist and yoga teacher specialising in somatic psychotherapy and nervous system education. I work in the areas of complex trauma, trauma, chronic stress and the relationship between the body and healing.
I’m currently available for one to one somatic psychotherapy.
Hello,
I’m based in the UK and work online. I specialise in complex trauma, chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation.
My work is grounded in somatic psychotherapy and nervous system science. I specialise in complex trauma and chronic stress, working relationally and sequentially — beginning with safety and stabilisation, building capacity, and supporting integration over time. I’m the founder of a number of offerings:
Somatic Psychotherapy Sessions
One-to-one therapy for complex trauma, chronic stress, and nervous system dysregulation. Relational, paced, using sensorimotor psychotherapy, trauma informed yoga, polyvagal therapy, EFT and hypnosis.
The Safety Within Membership

Somatic and nervous system resources designed for therapists and clients, offering clear and visually soothing trauma-informed worksheets, deck cards, and professional somatic tools. Practical resources to support regulation, client work and nervous system education.
Somatic Resource Studio
Somatic Art Embodiment Workshops
