I am not currently accepting clients whose main areas of focus are: Major Depressive Disorder, Complex Trauma (when trauma has been pervasive, throughout the lifespan), personality disorders, crisis management, suicidality or self-harm, active addiction, chronic illness, recent grief & eating disorders. [If some of these issues arise in the course of our work, we can address those areas I have training in. However, I am gearing my practice towards other main focus areas (see below)] Please answer the below question honestly, as I'd like you to find the best therapeutic fit:

The above listed focus areas are not my main areas of therapeutic focus

The above list includes my main areas of therapeutic focus, so we are not a good fit to work together

Yes

No, I need a therapist who can support me between sessions and in crisis situations

What is your experience with somatic work?

Beginner: It's hard for me to know what I'm feeling and to sense how those feelings show up in my body

Intermediate: I'm good at noticing my body's signals, feelings, and needs, but want help going deeper

Advanced: I have had training and practice in sensing how my emotions live in my body and following my body's impulses and signals to find healing, expression, regulation, and empowerment
