All mental health issues, be it depression, anxiety or personality disorders comes from trauma "stuck" in the subconscious mind, whether one realizes it or not. A somatic approach to therapy is necessary to identify this trauma in the body and look to heal it by transcending the egoic rationalization that is holding the trauma in place. (i.e. fear of being vulnerable, self-pity, victimhood, need acceptance from others, vindication against others etc.)
