It takes courage to let someone see where we feel stuck, hurt, or unsure. I’m grateful for the trust my clients bring to our work.
These are the words of people I’ve had the privilege of accompanying through somatic therapy, Core Energetics, relationship work, and personal transformation in Washington, DC and online.
“Sofia’s work is hard, but worth it. She holds a safe space, makes sure I feel seen, and incorporates the body in ways that I’ve never experienced before. The work has allowed me to take risks in relationships, and feel safe enough to stand up for myself and for what I want in my life. It’s real.”
The body holds so much of our story. Through this work, we explore the patterns, emotions, and protective layers that shape how we move through life.
“I feel more grounded in reality and able to separate what I want to be true versus what is really true.”
— E.H.

Finding New Ways of Relating
Our relationships reveal where we protect ourselves, struggle to express our needs, or long for a different kind of connection.

Space to be met
There is room for all of you here.
Somatic therapy brings the body into the conversation. Together, we make space for the feelings, needs, and parts of your experience that may have been difficult to express.
Sometimes our greatest shifts happen through difficult, honest encounters with ourselves, with the support of another person who can meet us there.
“As I learned to trust Sofia and the process, I was able to open things slowly and intentionally, safely examining each life experience or belief, discovering where it lives in my body…”
— MICHELE K.
“Sofia’s work has helped me through one of the darkest periods of my life and she did this with more compassion and understanding and patience than I ever thought possible.”
