Come home to your body.
Individual Somatic Therapy in New York for women, queer, and trans adults.
Your body holds your story.
It whispers the truths your mind might overlook—the quiet ache in your shoulders or the knot in your stomach. These sensations are more than discomfort; they are messages. They tell a tale of stress, sorrow, joy, and resilience.
Maybe you’ve been carrying tension for so long that it feels like part of you: the tightness in your chest, the lump in your throat, the exhaustion that no amount of sleep seems to cure. Or perhaps you feel disconnected from your body altogether, as though it’s a stranger you’re unsure how to approach.
These sensations are not random; they are your body speaking to you in its own language. Your body holds those memories, emotions, and unmet needs waiting to be acknowledged.
The Weight Your Body Carries.
Therapy isn’t just about talking; it’s about noticing.
How does your body respond when you speak about a boundary you’re afraid to set? What happens when you let yourself sit with the weight of an old memory? Together, we’ll explore these questions in a way that feels safe, gentle, and honoring of your pace.
We’ll use grounding practices to bring you back to the present when emotions feel overwhelming. Playing with breath, feeling the ground beneath your feet, or simply holding a moment of stillness… these small acts create space for your body to soften and release.
You might also find expression through movement or touch, exploring how your body can shift from holding tension to finding ease.
The body's special wisdom...
Your body holds the truths that words can’t always capture. It remembers, even when you’ve tried to forget, and it protects, even when that protection no longer serves you.
Somatic psychotherapy creates a bridge between your mind and body, allowing you to understand and gently transform the patterns that keep you stuck.
By connecting with your body, you’ll learn to trust its wisdom, release what no longer serves you, and cultivate a sense of safety within yourself. This is not about “doing it right”—it’s about showing up with curiosity, presence, and a willingness to explore.
Somatic psychotherapy offers a way to pause, to listen deeply, and to begin tending to the parts of you that have carried too much for too long.
What Somatic Therapy looks like with me.
Central to somatic psychotherapy is the concept of the mind-body connection. Traditional psychotherapy often focuses on exploring thoughts and emotions through verbal communication.
Somatic therapy, however, recognizes that our bodies store memories and emotions, and by accessing these physical sensations, individuals can gain a deeper understanding of their psychological state.
These are some of the interventions you might expect:
Embodied Awareness:
Breath and Movement:
Mindfulness and Presence:
Life can feel SO much lighter!
Imagine moving through your day without tension in your chest or stress aching in your shoulders. Picture reconnecting with your body as a source of grounding and strength… rather than a burden to manage. Envision a life where you respond to your emotions with compassion, knowing they’re simply part of the story you’re learning to hold. This work is a return – to your body, to your breath, and to yourself.
