Somatic Therapists in West Nyack, NY
My approach is relational and integrative, trauma-informed, goal-oriented, and may combine talk therapy, CBT tools, somatic (body) awareness, and meditation to access mindfulness, presence and focus.
Stress, anxiety and depression can surface as reactive anger, sadness, as isolating from others, and just feel exhausting. I work with adults (many men) to remove obstacles, find emotional clarity and meaning, and open the door to lasting change. I believe therapy to be a partnership where we build trust, become curious and collaborate on how best to remove blocks and old patterns, and acquire tools along the way toward a more fulfilled life. I seek to empower adults who struggle with trauma/PTSD, grief, at-risk behaviors, self-esteem, relationship and attachment difficulties, the codependency-narcissism bond, and life transitions.

Have you had a spiritual or religious experience that feels real and meaningful—but difficult to explain? You might find yourself sensing guidance, connection, or communication in ways that don’t quite fit into everyday language. At times, these experiences can feel profound, even sacred. At other times, they can feel confusing or overwhelming. There’s space here to explore what’s happening—whether it relates to spirituality, faith, or something you’re still trying to understand—while also staying grounded, oriented, and connected to your day-to-day life.

Transitioning into young adulthood is difficult enough. Coupled with the impact of a now-fading pandemic, it’s no wonder that many young adults report feeling distressed and unprepared to launch into a healthy independence with their self-esteem and confidence intact. I work extensively with young adults struggling with the transition into and out of college, who may be experiencing anxiety and depression, to help make sense of this difficult period in their lives; together we will collaborate and create a path forward. I also specialize with adults dealing with grief and loss, and work with communication and relationship issues.

Life is a journey, it may be a cliché, but it's a statement of truth. Now imagine traveling that journey in a car. Sometimes the road is smooth, and other times, we hit a bump or two and keep on going. Maybe a pothole slows you down, so you pull over because you can't move any longer. You're stuck and can't figure out how to get moving again. You realize you need someone to help you get back on the road.

I am a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and a Certified Gestalt Therapist.
I bring over 25 years of clinical experience to my practice as a psychotherapist. It is my belief that we each have a quiet place of truth within us that has been buried by the demands of life. Our habits and beliefs hold us back from our true nature and the life we desire. Together, we will work in the present moment to increase self awareness, uncover obstacles, and access this place of inner truth and strength. In my work with clients I often see individuals struggling with relationship conflicts, anxiety, depression, parenting concerns, life transitions, and the effects of trauma.

I tailor our work, integrating EMDR, when appropriate, along with somatic, mindfulness-based practices informed by my background in yoga and meditation.
You may be carrying experiences that still feel tender or unresolved. You may notice patterns in relationships, waves of anxiety, or a quiet sense that something deeper is asking for attention. If you are longing for a space to slow down and gently explore your inner world, you are not alone.
I believe healing unfolds in connection. In a space rooted in safety, curiosity, and compassion, we can begin to explore the parts of you that feel overwhelmed, hidden, or difficult to hold alone. As insight deepens, long-standing patterns begin to soften, creating room for meaningful change.

Does it feel like the once healthy relationships with your loved ones have become a source of conflict and discourse? You find yourself thinking: “What happened to the loving connection we used to have?” If your interactions with your spouse and children turn into fights, arguments, and miscommunication, you may find yourself mourning for what’s lost. These changes in our lives often feel unmanageable. And while they can leave you feeling helpless, you don’t have to face them alone. Therapy can guide you towards resolving conflicts, improving communication and rebuilding the loving connections you yearn for.

We are born innately curious, equipped with tools and perseverance to succeed in life. We are so strong and capable, full of great intuition and instincts. As babies and young children, we know our own truth and speak it confidently. As we grow, in order to fit in with life and society around us, we compromise our needs and ideals. We want to please others and feel acceptance. As a result, we may sacrifice our own beliefs. Trauma and oppression become obstacles in our path to healthy relationships, with our self and others. We feel individual, collective, and societal pain.

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.
