I’m Mira, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC, MA).

I’m a somatic therapist offering research-grounded care for teens, adults, and couples in Sebastopol, California and online via telehealth. I offer effective, trauma-informed care rooted in Relational Somatic methods.

My approach is spiritual, relational, embodied, and rooted in care.

My practice is justice-centered, trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, sex-positive, and shame-free.

For couples

Is couples therapy right for us?

Many couples arrive feeling stuck - not broken. You might benefit from somatic couples therapy if any of these feel familiar:

• You keep having the same fight, cycling through conflict without resolution

• Emotional or physical intimacy has faded and distance has grown between you

• You're committed to each other but need new tools to actually connect again

Who I work with

Many of the people who find their way here are thoughtful, sensitive, or deeply feeling people who have spent years trying to think their way out of pain. I also work with:

• Couples

  Partners seeking reconnection: Recovering from distress, conflict cycles, or sexual and emotional disconnection.

• Adults

  Seeking relief from trauma symptoms, burnout, or emotional overwhelm that talk therapy alone hasn't resolved.

• Teens

  Navigating anxiety, depression, or questions about sexuality and gender identity.

Work with me:

I offer a blend of traditional talk therapy and optional bodywork / touch therapy grounded in somatic trauma therapy and relational developmental research. My work draws on somatic trauma therapy, helping the nervous system process experiences that talk therapy alone can’t resolve. This approach helps clients restore safety, reconnect with what matters most, and soften internal barriers.

I practice in-person in Sebastopol, CA on the traditional homelands of the Southern Pomo and Graton Rancheria peoples, and online via telehealth.

Why Somatic Therapy?

Trauma Recovery

When something overwhelming happens, the body holds what the mind can't process. Trauma lives in our nervous system long after the event has passed, shaping how we respond to stress, connection, and even our ability to truly rest. In our work together, we approach trauma gently, at the pace your body can integrate, helping you find safety again from the inside out.

Emotional Regulation

Emotions aren't problems to solve. In fact, they're information - important and valuable information. But when feelings arrive too fast, too big, or seemingly out of nowhere, it can be hard to manage them. Somatic therapy helps you build capacity to be with your emotions without being overwhelmed by them, developing a steadier ground to stand on.

Mind-Body Connection

We often live from the neck up, disconnected from the signals our body is sending. Somatic work invites you back into relationship with your whole self, which means learning to read the language of sensation, tension, and impulse.

Relational Healing

Our earliest wounds happen in relationship, in the space between child and caregiver. They shape how we connect for years afterward, with our partners, friends, colleagues, and ourselves. Relational Somatic therapy goes to the source: the body, the nervous system, the lived experience of connection. We create a new, lived experience of secure connection that can transform how you relate to yourself, others, and the world. Healing happens beyond words, through undoing aloneness and being held in your pain.

Stress Relief

Stress settles into the body over time. It lives in the jaw, the shoulders, the breath. Somatic therapy goes to the source, working with your nervous system to help it settle, release, and restore. We're building resilience, a body that knows how to find its way back to calm.
