About this listen

 When intimacy feels impossible, your body holds the answers. Welcome to SOFT in Practice—the podcast that brings Somatic Oriented Fascia Therapy out of the clinic and into your everyday life. Created by Dr. Misty Gibson, somatic psychotherapist, certified sex therapist, and creator of the SOFT method, each episode takes you behind the scenes of embodied trauma healing. Through rich, relatable stories and realistic (anonymized) client vignettes, you’ll discover how trauma, pain, and pleasure all live in the body—and how fascia-focused therapy can help you find freedom, connection, and genuine rest. Whether you’re a therapist, a healing professional, or just someone looking for real talk about sex, intimacy, and body-based recovery, SOFT in Practice unpacks the science and soul behind the method in down-to-earth language anyone can understand. Join us to explore how bodies heal, why talk therapy isn’t the whole story, and what it really takes to feel safe, alive, and at home in your skin. Because healing is more than a theory—it’s a practice.© 2025 Hygiene & Healthy Living Personal Development Personal Success Psychology Psychology & Mental Health
