I am a somatically oriented psychotherapist. This work has a long history leading back through Alexander Lowen to Wilhelm Reich who was in the psychoanalytic world and a student of Freud’s. Utilizing somatic work adds a dimension that is missing in verbal analysis alone. Rather than depending on talk therapy alone, I help people through work with both the body and mind to access their true self and resolve traumas and patterns that are in the way of living a satisfying life. As I am with people I listen to find the path to healing that is unique to them. My extensive training in Somatic work enables me to help people recover their authentic self with all its passion, aliveness and potential for wholeness. While I address the needs for grounding and boundaries the emphasis is on the resolution of trauma, the restoration of aliveness, spontaneity, and the capacity for pleasure. I can help people work with the body in order to resolve trauma and find the resilience to enjoy the goodness of life. Somatic work is effective in working with depression, anxiety, PTSD, relationship problems, substance abuse, eating disorders, life transitions, and self-assertion. If you are interested please contact me. I provide an initial session at no fee so that you can meet me and we can explore working together.
