Working from an attachment perspective, I also draw on somatic approaches to help people increase insight about negative patterns that are keeping them stuck and disconnected from themselves and the people they care about.
I love supporting women and nonbinary folks who are self-identified over-thinkers. I help people bridge the gap between mind and body and learn how to use both as a guide to break through stuck areas and places of stagnation. I help women reconnect to self-trust and gain clarity about how to build a more fulfilling life. I often help people heal from anxious or avoidant attachment styles to build the kinds of relationships they want. Sometimes this involves setting healthy boundaries and often this involves processing pain from the past.

We’ve all struggled at times, in ways both big and small. If you are interested in changing your relationship with yourself and others, I can help. People come to me to better their communication skills, unlearn patters that negatively impact their significant relationships (including with self), and make room for joy and meaning. Some clients come looking for tools to manage anxiety; others seek tips and insight for navigating through grief and loss; still others wish to improve their intimacy and communication with their partners. I work with individuals, couples, and families on a wide range of life's 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.
