Common questions
- What is interoception, and how can therapy help?
- Interoception is the ability to sense what's happening inside your body, like hunger, pain, or emotions. Therapy helps you become more aware of these signals and respond to them effectively, leading to better self-regulation and overall well-being.
- How does interoception impact emotional regulation?
- Recognising internal body cues is crucial for understanding emotions. For instance, a racing heart might indicate anxiety. Interoception therapy teaches you to link physical sensations to emotions, enabling you to manage your feelings more effectively.

- Yes! We provide tailored interoception therapy for children and adults. We adapt our approaches to suit each individual's needs and developmental level.
