Frequently Asked Questions

What is Somatic Experiencing?

"Somatic Experiencing (SE) aims to resolve symptoms of stress, shock, and trauma that accumulate in our bodies. When we are stuck in patterns of fight, flight, or freeze, SE helps us release, recover, and become more resilient. Somatic Experiencing facilitates the completion of self-protective motor responses and the release of stuck survival energy bound in the body, thus addressing the root cause of trauma symptoms. This is approached by gently guiding clients to develop increasing tolerance for difficult bodily sensations and suppressed emotions."

Where are you located?

We offer virtual therapy to residents in New York and New Jersey. 

What is your cancellation policy?

We require at least 24 hours notice to cancel a session. Failure to cancel within this time frame means you will be responsible for paying the full fee for that time. This allows us to offer the time slot to someone else who may want it. We appreciate your understanding with our cancellation policy.

What are your therapy services?

We specialize in anxiety, trauma, stress, depression, self esteem, people pleasing, relationships, PSTD, C-PTSD, attachment, developmental trauma, cultural and racial trauma. 

Do you take insurance?

For therapy appointments, we are not in network with insurance at this time. Therapists at our practice are out-of-network providers. Being out-of-network provides you with more privacy and confidentiality, while in-network providers are required to share more information with insurance companies, such as session notes. We are happy to provide you with the necessary paperwork (superbill/invoice) for you to submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement for a portion of your session fee. Please know that not all insurance plans offer reimbursement for out-of-network prodivers and some plans have deductbles. We recommend calling the customer service number on the back of your card and speak to a representative for details about your specific plan.  

How much does it cost?

Our session fee vary depending on the clinician. Please book a free consultation call to discuss session fees.

How does it work?

Schedule a 15 minute consultation call:

This gives us the opportunity determine if we are the right fit to work together. This conversation allows us to learn more about each other before deciding to work together.

 

Schedule ongoing Sessions:

If we both agree to work together, we’ll schedule our first 45 minute session at a day and time that matches both of our schedules. 

 

Experience trauma resolution: 

As we gently work together you will experience a greater capacity for emotions and sensations. Learning how to connect with your intuition, instincts, and emotions. We will work the edges of your experiences building up your capacity while discharging activation. You can think of it as taking a bite and letting it digest then taking another bite and letting it digest. This gentle approach allows for long term integration and the connection with your bodies deep and innate wisdom.
