Waitlist for new clients Hi, I’m Elizabeth, a trauma therapist specializing in holistic and somatic therapy. I help people who feel disengaged from life and are navigating the effects of past or recent trauma. Trauma can show up as fear, loss of motivation, confusion, disconnection from yourself or others, difficulty sleeping, or feeling unsafe in your body and relationships. Many find talk therapy hasn’t fully helped them process these experiences. I provide in-person therapy in San Luis Obispo and Los Osos, California, and online sessions for clients across California, including Santa Monica.
Whether online or in-person, my approach is somatic and relational, working with your body and nervous system, not just your thoughts. Using body-based therapy and Brainspotting, we gently process trauma as it arises in the present moment, helping rewire your nervous system, release stuck patterns, and feel safer, and more connected in your body and life.
I create a supportive space where you feel seen and understood. Together, we explore difficult experiences and open the possibility for new, healing experiences in the moment. Clients often leave sessions feeling more grounded, confident, and connected to themselves and others. If you’re ready to go deeper than talk therapy, I'd be honored to support you.

I help adults gain awareness of core wounds and heal trauma through somatic and holistic therapy. In a compassionate, present-moment space, clients learn to embody themselves fully, releasing shame, self-criticism, and stuck patterns, while reorganizing their system toward wholeness, presence, and resilience.
