Somatic Therapists in Mountain View, CA
I draw upon Jungian, psychodynamic, somatic and transpersonal psychologies in my work with clients towards this goal.
The world is really challenging right now; it makes sense that you would feel anxious, depressed or not yourself. No part of our lives has gone untouched. I find that having someone to listen, remind you of your strengths, and help you discover new parts of yourself and new ways to feel better are what make a difference. I help adults with depression, anxiety, loss of meaning, phase of life issues, unresolved life events, and transitions.

I am here to partner with you on your healing journey - to help guide you back to a state of greater freedom, wholeness and connection. In our work together, we aim to activate your innate resiliency, repair old relational injuries and release oppressive binds of shame-based conditioning. I see our work through a lens of possibilities. Most importantly, I already see you as a whole being.

As a licensed yoga instructor & EMDR practitioner, I go beyond traditional talk therapy to utilize mindfulness and somatic exercises that work to soothe the nervous system for a greater sense of wellbeing.
I work predominantly with first & second generation Asian-American millennials seeking help with perfectionism, people pleasing, career burnout, and challenging family dynamics. One of the most important things to know when you are struggling is that you are not alone. As a biracial (Chinese-Irish) therapist, I'm familiar with the nuances of overcoming current stressors while understanding the influence of cultural identity issues and intergenerational trauma.

My personal path to practicing psychotherapy has traversed academic internal medicine, a rich breadth of psychological training from depth psychology to somatic psychology to evidence-based approaches, teaching & facilitative work in small group and classroom settings, a creative life in ceramics and painting, and a Zen-Taoist path of meditation and inquiry.
As we live our lives, all of us face challenging curves in the road from time to time. Whether it be anxiety or depression, relational difficulties, troublesome patterns at work or school, or turbulence along a personal or spiritual path, we can all benefit from support navigating these consequential turns. Dissatisfaction or suffering on any scale can serve both as a signal and motivation towards greater understanding, integration, and alignment with ourselves, significant others, and our deepest values. Whether it’s anywhere from a modest course-correction to inner transformation you're seeking, let's explore the path together.

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.
