Over the past five decades, I have conducted a licensed clinical psychology practice. As a counselor, author and innovator, those who seek my services feel better, think better and have better relationships. The focus is on helping people identify, then achieve what they want, rather than trying to manage problems. Using cutting-edge tools, I lead clients to where positive states are expressed in their bodies, then build the skill sets they will need to hold that somatic form through time, as they make useful, life-enhancing decisions.

This is a somatic, or body-based modality of healing and wellness.
As an Advanced Certified Core Energetics Practitioner, I work with a variety of clients who are looking for a better way of being. They may have challenges with depression, anxiety, shame, fear, and traumas, or (not so) simply looking for something more out of life, continually asking, "Is this all there is?" Talk therapy can be valuable in gaining a cognitive understanding of WHY you feel as you do, and it can provide some relief. But how much does it change your lived experience? Core Energetics works emotions/feelings/thoughts through your systems, through your body in a way that frees stuck energy for purposes that YOU direct.

You’re so tired. And you’re tired of saying you’re tired. Especially after these exhausting COVID years. It’s so hard to turn your mind off from your worries and your endless to-do list. You’re overwhelmed, wondering when things will get easier. You provide so much care to others, but you get lost in the shuffle. Your temper flares easily. So much has changed in your life, and you wonder if you will feel like yourself again. Care work is incredibly hard and often invisible, and caring for yourself in the midst of that is even harder.

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.
