A Six-Week Experiential Group with Kelly Gant, MA, LPCC, E-RYT
Mondays, August 3 – September 7, 2026 · 6:00–7:00 PM Mountain · Virtual
Stress is something most of us know intimately and understand very little. A lot of that comes down to the nervous system, but most of us have never been introduced to ours.
Your nervous system isn't just "on" or "off." It moves between three states (calm and connected, fight-or-flight, and shutdown) that shape how you think, how you feel, and how you respond to the people and situations around you.
This group is an introduction. Over six weeks, you'll start to “map” your own nervous system, and its patterns, understand why you respond the way you do, and build a set of practical tools (somatic, EMDR-based, and mindfulness practices) you can actually use in daily life. All of it experiential, grounded in current neuroscience, and practiced alongside a small group of people asking the same questions.
No prior experience needed, and all abilities are welcome.
Somatic Skills Group:
Stress, The Body, & How We Heal
-
Session 1 - Welcome
Introductions, group agreements, and an opening practice to take into the week.
Session 2 — Why Your Nervous System Does What It Does
We'll look at what actually happens in the brain during stress and overwhelming experiences, how those responses get wired in over time, and what that means for everyday life.
Session 3 — Body-Based Tools
Some of the most effective ways to shift your nervous system happen through the body, not the mind. We'll explore why that is and try a few practices firsthand, including a Qigong-rooted (“shaking the tree”) practice and a tapping technique for anxiety.
Session 4 — EMDR
EMDR is an evidence-based approach that helps the brain process experiences that got stuck. We'll cover what it is, how it works, and practice a resourcing exercise you can use on your own.
Session 5 — Mindfulness
We'll look at what mindfulness actually is, what it does in the brain, and try a few practices together, including a breath-based meditation and a Savoring or Walking Meditation.
Session 6 — Closing
Takeaways, intentions, and a look at what might support you going forward.

Community rate: $180
Suggested rate: $240
Supporting rate: $300 Helps make this group accessible to others who need it.

Kelly Gant has spent 19 years helping people understand and befriend their bodies — first on the yoga mat with professional athletes, veterans, and people living with PTSD or chronic pain, and now as a somatic and EMDR therapist at Centerpoint Healing.
She makes neuroscience approachable and fun; people leave her sessions with things they actually remember and use in “real” life.
She holds an MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Naropa University, with a concentration in Mindfulness-Based Transpersonal Counseling. Kelly is an E-RYT, a Warriors at Ease Certified Teacher bringing the principles of yoga to veterans and active duty military, and a Y12SR Certified Teacher, a framework that connects the ancient wisdom of yoga, the tools of the 12-step program, and the latest research on trauma healing and neurobiology.
Kelly Gant, LPCC works under the clinical supervision of Raphaelle Cuenod, LCSW (CSW.09931319).
Events offered are educational in nature, not therapy, and do not establish a therapeutic relationship with Centerpoint Healing, PLLC, or its facilitators. Groups and workshops are not a substitute for individual mental health treatment. If you're currently in crisis or experiencing acute symptoms, please reach out to your provider or contact 988.
