Somatic Therapists in San Marcos, CA
Using a culturally and trauma-informed approach, I blend modalities like IFS, EMDR, and Somatic interventions for trauma.
Being human is both beautiful and hard. If you're feeling stuck, maybe caught in self-doubt, old survival patterns, or the pain of narcissistic abuse, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I offer a space where your emotions are welcome, your story is honored, and your nervous system can begin to exhale. Healing isn't about fixing what’s broken. It’s about reconnecting and evolving with the parts of you that were never truly lost. Therapy with me isn’t one-size-fits-all. It’s intuitive, collaborative, and rooted in deep respect for your inner wisdom.

Are you struggling to find the right therapist? Let me help. The key is finding someone you feel comfortable with, but how to know in advance? Reading profiles can help you get a feel for the therapist.
I am a tools therapist, not a talk therapist. I listen with openness and compassion, then teach you how to shift patterns in your brain, body, and relationships. Using evidence-based approaches, I help you reduce anxiety, heal trauma, optimize communication, and restore balance.

I have experience supporting diverse populations and enjoy helping clients navigate family boundaries, particularly when cultural expectations and generational differences are involved. For many individuals with immigrant family backgrounds, balancing personal goals with family values can feel complicated, and therapy can be a space to explore those dynamics and find a path that feels authentic.
My style is warm, practical, and collaborative. I aim to meet clients where they are while helping them move toward greater clarity, confidence, and balance.

I use EMDR, Inner-Child Work, CBT, Somatic Therapy, and Forgiveness Therapy to help clients resolve core negative beliefs.
I love working with and specialize in helping clients who struggle with perfectionism, people pleasing, and codependency. I find that these ways of being in relationship can often be traced back to early childhood traumatic experiences of neglect, abuse and/or abandonment. Clients who cope in these ways typically believe that they are not enough in some aspect of their personhood and often compensate for their lack by being overly responsible and overly doing in many aspects of their relationships. Left unresolved, these ways of coping can lead clients to experience burn-out, anxiety and depression.

I utilize an integrative and supportive approach that blends evidence-based practices with subconscious and somatic tools that support mental, physical and emotional healing.
Maybe you are carrying anxiety that never fully turns off. Maybe past experiences still shape your relationships, & sense of safety. Or maybe life simply looks fine from the outside while everything inside feels heavy and tangled.
My approach is designed to empower you towards lasting change with practical support, encouragement, & whole-person care.

I incorporate somatic interventions into my work to also help your body work through the trauma that you may not have words for.
Building on a solid foundation of somatic EMDR psychotherapy, my goal as a therapist is to treat the whole person- mind, body, and spirit- with integrity and non-judgmental compassion. I want to help you create a quiet, safe space where you can learn to find the wisdom of your true self, and your body's own innate ability to heal.

Do you ever feel alone in the world, even when surrounded by people? Maybe you’ve spent years feeling different, misunderstood, or exhausted trying to meet expectations that don’t match how your brain works. Some begin to notice their own neurodivergence after their child is diagnosed with ADHD/Autism, and suddenly lifelong patterns start to make more sense. Maybe you've spent years masking, overthinking, in burnout mode, wondering why everyday life feels much harder than it seems for everyone else.

"It's not forgetting that heals. It's remembering." - Amy Greene. My area of focus is working with women and men who want to heal their mind and bodies from negative or traumatic experiences. Forgetting is not always an option because our bodies do remember. Common symptoms and complaints that can be related to traumatic events may be anxiety or depression, irritability and anger, frequent headaches, stomach-aches and fatigue. It can be difficult and overwhelming to reach out for support, but "forgetting" may no longer feel like an option for you.

I approach therapy with the Nervous System in mind and its impact on our thoughts, memories, and reactions with the use of EMDR, Somatic, & Parts Work.
Do you find yourself stuck in a cycle of intrusive thoughts, react from 0 to 10 in seconds, and start to feel out of control? After, feel guilty, embarrassed, want to hide and keep to yourself? Only leading to loneliness and sadness? You wish you could avoid this happening ever again.
Somehow, deep down inside, you know it can be better.
And it can. At Trevino Counseling and Wellness, I help individuals break the cycle and overcome anxiety and traumatic experiences that continue to impact their lives today. Whether it was a one-time occurrence or several throughout one's life.

I offer collaborative, non-pathologizing therapy grounded in psychodynamic, somatic, and parts-based work.

At your pace, we explore emotions, the nervous system, and your personal story to cultivate grounding, insight, and connection. I strive to offer a space where you feel seen, heard, and safe to heal, explore meaning, and reconnect with hope and purpose.

" My approach combines IFS, ACT, somatic work, and a bit of DBT-inspired tools, all guided by the therapeutic relationship.
Lately, you’ve been reacting in ways that don’t feel like you. You're snapping faster, overthinking everything, struggling to relax even when you get a moment. You keep telling yourself you should be able to handle this, but something feels off. Whether you’re pregnant, postpartum, or deep in motherhood, things feel louder, harder, and more constant than they used to. You’re still showing up, but quietly wondering, "what is happening to me?" It's exhausting trying to keep up appearances when you feel this way inside. I help moms in this exact place slow things down, make sense of what’s underneath, and start feeling steady again.

You're a mom in the postpartum period or early motherhood who feels like she's barely holding it together. You did everything to prepare- read all the books, made all the plans, but motherhood still blindsided you. The anxiety is constant, the exhaustion is bone-deep, and somewhere along the way you stopped recognizing yourself. You're overwhelmed, carrying everything, and you're silently wondering if it will ever feel better. At Happy Moms Therapy, I help postpartum moms with anxiety, unresolved trauma, and the exhaustion of holding everything together so they can stop pushing their needs aside and feel more like themselves again.

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.
