It is so nice to meet the brave people who are wanting to address their mental health. My practice is as a generalist, so we can address a wide range of topics. Somatic psychotherapy is used to integrate the body and mind. If previous trauma or stress was a part of your life, we can explore together how to work with the past, present, and future.
