When life gets rough, it's important to know there are safe and supportive spaces you can turn to for support. Whether you're seeking real relief from anxiety or depression, needing help establishing better boundaries, questioning your identity, sexuality, or personal relationships or just having trouble managing the day-to-day, we can help. At Life by Design Therapy we believe change is possible for you. We offer holistic and somatic therapy to support you in navigating life's challenges without having to dismiss, avoid, or disconnect from what you truly want. It's time to live life on your own terms and Create A Life You Love!
Holistic therapy offers a well-rounded and complete approach to healing and personal growth leading to change and a deeper understanding on a mind, body, and spirit level. Our somatic therapists have extensive training and specialize in incorporating body-centered and mindfulness-based approaches to help you manage your very real and very physical symptoms.
We understand you may be struggling and looking to find someone that understands you and can actually help! We currently offer daytime, evening and weekend video or phone appointments and have offices in both Downtown Berkeley and Richmond CA.
