Somatic Therapists in Sacramento, CA
Mental health challenges are due to the aftereffects of traumatic experiences. Trauma can place a strain on your family, work, relationships, and even cause issues with self-worth. I specialize in trauma therapy along with treating personality disorders, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and addiction. All these disorders can look different from person to person, and that is where our therapeutic journey of empowerment and self-exploration begins. I concentrate on creating a safe space of growth and self-discovery through unconditional positive regard, emotional regulation, and guided activities.

My approach is holistic and compassion-driven, blending somatic (mind-body) practices, EMDR, PACT, and parts work to help individuals and couples heal and reconnect.
You're checking all the boxes: relationships, responsibilities, obligations, and career and you are great at doing what needs to be done. But inside, you are constantly in survival mode, nervous system dysregulated, anxious, and disconnected. You’ve been performing, perfecting, and doing for so long and you need to find your joy, your ease, your clarity, yourself. Or maybe it is your relationship that is stuck on autopilot. You two are getting through the days, managing tasks, and avoiding blow-ups. But the spark, intimacy, and real connection you once had feel far away. You want to re-connect and build intimacy.

Do you and your partner feel more like roommates or co-parents than romantic partners since having a baby? If conversations revolve around schedules, feedings, and who’s doing what—while closeness, ease, and emotional connection feel harder to access—you’re not alone. Becoming parents can deeply shake even the strongest relationships, leaving many couples feeling distant, overwhelmed, or unsure how to find their way back to one another. Therapy can help you make sense of this shift, feel less alone in it, and gently work toward reconnecting as partners again—not just teammates getting through the day.

Do you feel stuck, unworthy, or unsure about yourself and your choices? Do you struggle to find joy, move through your feelings, or feel consumed by your thoughts? Life is full of challenges that can leave us feeling lost, confused, disconnected, or even hopeless. We can distract ourselves with our work, technology, and sometimes healthy habits.

And we can’t share what we’re going through with anyone around us. All we need is someone to listen. Someone to care.

Many of us feel disconnected from ourselves and experience symptoms that constrict
our lives and relationships. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe, supportive
environment where you can explore longstanding patterns, work through past trauma,
integrate previously disowned parts of self, and discover your inner strengths. Using a
holistic, integrative approach grounded in psychodynamic, attachment, and
developmental theories, I help clients gain insight and self-awareness, empowering
them to make intentional decisions that align with their values and transform their
present experiences.

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.
