Somatic Psychotherapist
There’s more to you than what you’ve been through.
I’m Glad You’re Here! Let’s Talk About What Brought You In.
I know these issues, no matter how they show up, aren’t what you hoped for in life. Maybe you struggle with persistent anxiety, past traumas, or troubled relationships. Perhaps, even when you’re surrounded by loved ones, it can feel impossible to share the real, deep parts of yourself.
Whether you've tried tackling these issues before or are working on things for the first time, breaking free is possible.
Lets figure it out together....
I believe everyone deserves to love and be loved. In us, even if it doesn’t feel like it, we have the strength to heal and move beyond the past hurts into a fulfilling life. Together, you and I can figure this out and find the relief and fulfillment you’re looking for.
Why Somatic Therapy?
Each of us has a natural capacity to heal and move beyond old challenges. Talk therapy can be powerful in our healing process by helping us gain insight and understanding, but some challenges go deeper than words can reach.
Healing Beyond Words
Rather than beginning with words and intellect, our sessions emphasize psychological, emotional, and somatic experiences to uncover the roots of issues and process the past more deeply.
Using techniques like EMDR and somatic experiencing, we follow these signals to more deeply process past wounds, which accelerates your natural healing process.
Therapeutic Approach
Gently Accelerate Your Mind's Natural Healing
-
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing uses bilateral stimulation to help you process past experiences and trauma. This evidence-based therapy helps the mind heal from psychological trauma by creating new neural pathways in the brain.
-
Somatic Experiencing
In Somatic Experiencing, we focus less on retelling difficult stories and more on noticing and working with your body. By gently tuning into your responses, we unlock answers and safely release tension, helping restore balance and reduce the impact of past experiences.
-
Mindfulness Therapy
Mindfulness focuses on building self-awareness at your own pace, offering flexible practices that keep you in control, so you can reconnect with yourself safely and manageably, even when challenging emotions arise.
Hi, I’m Bree
I’m an EMDR-trained somatic therapist in Santa Monica, and I love the work I do. My own healing journey showed me just how powerful somatic approaches can be in creating real change.
I want you to know that you deserve to feel connected, at ease, and free from what’s holding you back. You can get there, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.
