Somatic Therapists in Austin, TX
I tend to lean into self-compassion, mindfulness, and somatic based modalities with clients.
A sense of belonging. Feeling seen and understood. Feeling comfortable with your actions and responses to loved ones, co-workers, and acquaintances. To make meaning of how your life has gone so far and, perhaps, find some peace within your story. Sometimes these real, human desires can feel daunting without some support... My approach is extremely genuine, compassionate, and ... real. I have many years of experience working with clients who have encountered challenges in life transitions, identity/sexuality, relationships, historical family trauma, depression/anxiety, and questioning what it means to live their truth in life.

My therapeutic approach combines mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral strategies, somatic inquiry, and positive psychology theory and techniques.
Please note: The VERY best way to get in touch is by email rather than phone. Are you feeling stuck in your life? Let’s sit together and explore all that weighs on you. I think of counseling as a form of mentoring. You have the answers in yourself. My role is being your companion and facilitator in accessing your own wisdom and power. You are stronger and more creative than you know. Therapy is an experience where I stay completely present to you, and help you heal, explore, and grow.

I also incorporate somatic release into my work with you.
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure..."
My work with clients revolves around the truth that we are all born perfect and worthy of love. Traumatic experiences may have taught you that closing off your heart is safer or creating defenses protects you from being hurt again. You may hold core beliefs about yourself and the world such as: “I am worthless and unworthy of love”, “the world is not safe”, “people I love and care about will leave me”. I will guide you as you break free from the past, feel safe and calm, and begin to live fully in the present.

At my disposal are a rich repertoire of somatic, behavioral, mindfulness, and insight-oriented modalities.
Are you struggling with intimate relationships, past trauma, or cultural differences? Do you feel like, despite your best effort, you can't seem to follow through on your true intentions and end up feeling trapped in defeat and self-doubt? You sense there is meaning beneath the surface - of your emotions, your patterns, and your dreams - and you are seeking someone to gently help you clear away the dust and find your essence.

Though my background is in Social Work, I practice coaching with a body-up, whole person focus, based on a certification as a yoga teacher (Neuro Somatic Yoga & Bodywork), and additional trainings:
Welcome to Viva Integrative Coaching & Consulting, a NeuroSomatic, Trauma-informed, and Transformative approach to journeying and healing. If you’ve tried it all or don’t know where to start, please consider this your invitation, for yourself or child for whole person support.
The nervous system connects the seen and unseen. When we take a journey, especially alongside another person, and we choose to do what is needed to be more real, we are able to integrate our sense of self, mind/psyche/soul, nervous system, and even bodies in ways that we are more grounded, regulated, functional, and connected within and with life.

I am a therapist who utilizes holistic approaches, so I incorporate EMDR, mindfulness, meditation, and somatic practices into our sessions.
I enjoy working with women who view themselves as people pleasers that want to change that. These same women want to reverse self-doubt and overthinking. I also work with motivated adults who want to understand how their past has impacted them. If you are a young adult who is looking for goal-oriented therapy that can help you move toward your future with confidence, I can help! Do you feel like you care a lot about the thoughts and opinions of others and would like to change that? We can talk through that too. You might feel like you can't talk about how you're feeling with those around you. I’m here to support you.

My approach is shaped by my own healing journey and years of experience, including training at The Meadows with experts like Pia Melody (Developmental Immaturity Model), Claudia Black (It Will Never Happen to Me), and Peter Levine ( Somatic Experiencing).
You're realizing it’s time to focus on healing. Life hasn’t been easy for you. You've faced a number of challenges that haven't been healed. Or, perhaps, you’re facing a loss that has left you disoriented and raw. Survival mode feels like a daily routine, and you don’t even know what “normal” feels like anymore. You may struggle with anxiety, depression, or intrusive thoughts and images. You find yourself swinging between overwhelm and detachment, anger and numbness. You feel alone. Only those who’ve been in your shoes can truly understand. You know it’s time to seek help toward healing and enjoying more of what life has to offer.
