Living from a loving, soft heart is possible, but talk therapy can feel like just so much mental gymnastics or venting. By contrast, embodied methods such as meditation and breathwork focus on the heart-body inner experience as the core of therapy. Rather than changing through thought alone, mindful therapy works from the bottom up, connecting with your body’s intuition to address issues through Inspiration. The answers lie in a special way of listening to your heart and inner body. I’m Asher Lyman, a licensed Jungian-Somatic therapist with 20+ years of experience, helping you to feel more loving, confident, lively, and clear-eyed.

As a practitioner, my core focus is to create a space that is built on transparency, trust and integrity.

There are so many reasons to seek out therapy. One common theme is feeling overwhelmed by a lack of clarity—not knowing what direction to take or what to do next. Or maybe relationships feel difficult or unsatisfying, whether that’s a recent change or something that’s always been true. You might be asking yourself: Do I really feel like I can be myself in the world? These kinds of questions can be uncomfortable, but they’re also deeply human, and central to our identity and our life story.

I’m passionate about creating because creating is a way of connecting our internal experiences with the world around us and seeing ourselves as a part of the world. When art is part of a therapy session, it is another way to connect to the world, to see how events and those around you influence our emotions.
I employ an eclectic approach with a firm reliance on Art. My role as an art therapist when you are making art is 1) to support and free up your process, and 2) to help you describe and find meaning in your creation and to relate it to your more extensive therapy process. I believe we are capable of creating our answers.
