Somatic Trauma Therapy for Women in Milford, MA & virtually beyond.
Move out of survival mode into an authentic, embodied life.
At a time when it mattered, you didn’t have a say.
A choice was made for you. And you’re still living with the consequences.
Maybe it was in your childhood, where staying small was how you stayed safe. Or when hands were on your body without your consent. Maybe that moment was in the birth that went nothing like you planned. Or when you became locked in a constant state of doing and achieving, because that’s how you learned to earn your worth.
From the outside, you've got it all together. Inside, you're running on fumes. You show up, but feel like a shell of yourself. Boundaries seem impossible to hold, so you keep giving until there's nothing left to give. You long for connection that doesn't leave you flattened afterward.
Chances are, you carry deep grief or shame that these experiences shaped you in ways that are still costing you relationships, opportunities, and joy. And yet, something inside you refuses to accept that this is simply who you are.
Perhaps you’ve tried talk therapy before, but it didn’t create the change you were hoping for. Many women arrive here after years of trying to think their way out of patterns that live in the body.
This work offers a different way.
Here, there’s space to go deeper than just managing symptoms. Based in Somatic Experiencing®, each session is tailored to your unique nervous system and guided by what’s unfolding for you in the moment.
I’m Amy Williams, founder of Felt Sense Psychotherapy. If you wish to stop reacting from your trauma history and begin responding to your actual life with presence and choice, you’re in the right place.
My goal is to help you come home to safety and connection within- so you're finally living your life, not just getting by.
Felt Sense Psychotherapy supports women healing from complex trauma, sexual trauma, birth trauma, and burnout, in person in Milford, Massachusetts and virtually across the state.

I work with women who:
What Others Are Saying
I came to this work through my own healing journey.
I spent years in talk therapy exploring my patterns before I ever felt them shift. Somatic therapy is what finally did that. I built this practice so other women could experience a real shift too.

Why Felt Sense?
A felt sense is your body’s way of knowing something before you have words for it. It’s the tightness that rises before a hard conversation, the heaviness in your chest that won’t explain itself, the gentle softening when something finally feels right.
A felt sense arises from being in your body, experiencing yourself directly, without the constant narration of the thinking mind. We can use our felt sense to better understand ourselves and what lies beneath the surface of our thoughts and emotions.
This matters for healing, because your nervous system doesn’t speak in logic. It speaks in sensation. When we slow down and listen to your felt sense together, patterns stuck at their root in the nervous system can begin to loosen. What your body has held for years finally has room to move.
Trauma healing on your timeline.
At Felt Sense we honor the pace and rhythm of your body- where small shifts are just as meaningful as big breakthroughs.
