Somatic trauma therapy for adults in St. George, UT
Therapy for deeper self-trust, embodiment, and connection.
Come back to yourself.
You’ve spent a lot of your life taking care of everyone else, keeping the peace, and trying to be what other people need.
You may understand where your patterns come from, but knowing why you do something doesn’t always make it easier to change.
I create a space to slow down, learn how to actually start shifting the patterns you feel stuck in and build a relationship with yourself that feels more grounded, authentic, and connected.
Healing from sexual abuse or other relational trauma
Struggling with boundaries or relationships
Constantly putting everyone else’s needs before your own
Easily overwhelmed, overstimulated, or emotionally exhausted
Feeling disconnected from your body or emotions
Struggling with shame, self-worth, or people-pleasing
Tired of knowing what you should do but struggling to actually do it

More than talk therapy
Trauma recovery involves more than understanding your story. My work incorporates a combination of somatic therapy, EMDR, Brainspotting, parts work, trauma-sensitive nervous-system practices.
You don't need to toughen up, feel less, or become someone you're not. Therapy can help you understand yourself, honor your emotions, and feel more at home in your own body and life.
“Trauma creates change you DON'T choose. Healing is about creating change you DO choose.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Rooted in eastern, indigenous and native healing practices, somatic therapies differ from traditional talk therapy in its unique focus on body sensations and movement in order to release emotions stored in the body. Somatic modalities are incredibly effective at helping you regain emotional balance and release physical tension related to emotional distress and trauma.

Your first therapy session, also known as an intake session, is an opportunity for you to discuss your concerns, goals, and any questions you may have. I will gather information about your background, current struggles, and previous experiences with therapy to develop a personalized treatment plan. This session is also a chance for you to determine if you feel comfortable working with me as your therapist. If for some reason it’s not a good fit, I’ll help direct you to someone who might work better!

The duration of therapy varies depending on your individual needs, goals, and progress. Some people may find relief in a few sessions, while others may benefit from longer-term therapy. I will work with you to establish realistic expectations and regularly review your progress to ensure you're getting the most out of your sessions.

I’ve chosen to work outside of insurance so I can have more freedom in how I practice and tailor therapy to each person’s needs. This means I’m not required to diagnose a mental health disorder or fit your experience into an insurance-defined treatment plan in order to provide care.
Working privately also gives us more flexibility in the approaches we use, the pace of therapy, and the goals we work toward. My focus can stay on you and what you need, rather than what an insurance company requires.
I am able to offer a superbill that you can submit to your insurance for reimbursement if you have out of network benefits. Please contact your insurance to see if your plan offers this option.

I offer both in-person and teletherapy options to accommodate your preferences and needs. Teletherapy provides a convenient and flexible way to access therapy from the comfort of your own home. My teletherapy services adhere to strict privacy and security standards to ensure your confidentiality. I do not offer therapy over the phone.
