I'm a holistic, trauma-informed therapist and I'd like to help you take good care of your mental health. Do you have anxiety? Racing thoughts? When our nervous systems are in fight/flight/freeze/fawn it can trigger anxiety, avoidance, dissociation or anger. We may feel 'stuck.' We may have the urge to put the needs of others before our own needs. We may be constantly on the go and unable to relax. We may have trouble setting boundaries. We may over-use substances, food or social media. We may struggle to live authentically in harmony with our core values. Over time, we may develop symptoms of depression.

In over a decade of practicing, I've discovered the effectiveness of therapy lies in providing individuals with the necessary time and secure connection to explore beliefs and relationships with self and other. We can reshape detrimental self-perceptions and change our relationship with our emotions. Perhaps you're caught in cycles of behavior that evoke feelings of inadequacy or guilt. Maybe you feel stagnant, unheard, or struggle to express your needs. Here, you'll find a supportive, inclusive setting where you can connect, feel truly seen, and explore without judgment.

Somatic Therapists
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
