Structured therapeutic work that leads to lasting change

Many people find themselves stuck in repeating patterns, despite support or therapy.

Our work recognises that lasting change doesn’t come from insight alone, but from engaging both mind and body.

Somaia delivers structured programmes that integrate psychological and physiological approaches, creating the conditions for meaningful, sustained change.

Through a combination of education, reflection, and practical experience, participants develop greater regulation, clarity, and resilience that carries into everyday life.



The people we work with often arrive after years of feeling stuck.
Our structured, trauma informed delivery helps them feel seen, safe and supported.

Leadership

Somaia Health Consortium CIC was founded by Dr Marion Wachet and Alex Broadbent, combining clinical psychology and physical activity expertise to design the RESET model. As a not-for-profit organisation, Somaia delivers funded programmes in partnership with community organisations across the Midlands.

Dr. Marion Wachet, a Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience, became a therapist to transform her family’s story. Working as a Consultant Clinical Psychologist with the NHS and Priory, Dr. Wachet is on a mission to empower individuals not just to survive, but to thrive. 

Alex Broadbent, a seasoned athlete with over 30 years of experience in strength and conditioning, is driven by a personal mission. Having witnessed the impact of depression and anxiety in his own family, Alex is dedicated to helping others discover joy through physical activity, rather than chasing a perfect body.

A structured, trauma-informed approach

Our work is grounded in an understanding of how experiences shape both mind and body over time. Patterns of stress, adaptation, and survival are not just cognitive, they are held across systems, influencing how people think, feel, and respond in everyday life.

We deliver structured programmes that integrate psychological and physiological approaches, creating environments that are consistent, supportive, and focused on real world application. This allows individuals and groups to move beyond insight alone and begin to work directly with the patterns that maintain difficulty.

Grounded in trauma informed principles, our work prioritises safety, clarity, and individual agency, enabling people to engage at their own pace while developing the capacity for lasting change.
