Somatic Counseling
I have been a counselor for over 20 years, and a somatic counselor for 10. My purpose as a professional is to provide you with an open and supportive place to explore and process your thoughts, feelings and experiences while on your healing journey. You can explore whatever is important to you: your relationships, vocational choices, personal goals and or blocks to what you desire to change. I will also help you explore issues that may be impacting your growth that you may not have considered--my overall goal is to support you as you explore.
It is my experience as a therapist that "talk therapy" addresses about 80% of what a person needs to process. The other 20% of a person's process must be FELT-not just talked about. For many people, a somatic counseling approach helps them access this material.
Somatic Counseling is counseling that adds your felt experience into the session. This material can be accessed by various exercises and interventions that include breath awareness, locating tension in your body, grounding exercises, meditation, visual imagery, body dialogue, deep relaxation, and for in-person sessions--some table work/body awareness. (Clients will be ALWAYS fully clothed).

My fees are $150 per 55-60 minute session. If you desire additional time beyond the first hour, I am happy to provide it ($50 for 30min., $75 for 45min., $100 for 60min.) However, insurance plans do NOT cover additional time, and so additional time will be an out-of-pocket cost to you.
I provide telehealth services to clients in both New York and Illinois.
