Somatic Therapy for High-Functioning Anxiety in South Florida

Anxiety is often a sign that your nervous system does not feel safe, even when you are not in real danger. It is the body’s “flight” response, meant to protect you from threats. While it is normal to feel anxious from time to time, when your system stays on high alert, the tension, spiraling thoughts, and overreactions can start to take over daily life.

In therapy, the focus is on healing the lack of felt safety. Through somatic work, your nervous system learns to recognize when you are safe, so it does not stay stuck in survival mode. This work supports both mind and body, creating more steadiness and capacity over time.

As your system settles, the patterns of anxiety shift. You feel more resilience, more room for connection, and more freedom to live in line with what is important to you. You also build more capacity for stress, so you are more likely to stay grounded when challenges arise.

Yes. Anxiety doesn’t have to take over your life. It is normal to feel anxious from time to time, and those feelings can even carry helpful information. But what you’re experiencing now does not have to be your normal.

Somatic therapy helps your nervous system recognize the difference between real danger and everyday stress. This makes it easier to recover after anxious moments and respond in ways that feel more steady and clear.

Over time, you build more capacity for stress. That means you’re less likely to spiral, shut down, or overreact, and more able to stay grounded when challenges arise. Healing is possible, and so is growth.

Weekly sessions are an important part of how I work. Meeting regularly creates the rhythm and consistency this therapy needs. It helps us build trust, gain momentum, and allow the work to deepen.

This process makes space for what your body has been carrying, while also allowing room for emotional processing, insight, and reflection. Together, we bring both mind and body into the healing work.

On rare occasions, someone with a very specific trigger may find that a few months of therapy is enough. But most people are working through more complex anxiety, trauma, or long-term overwhelm. For them, healing and growth usually unfold over a longer stretch of time, often one to three years, with consistent weekly support.

Sessions are online.

Virtual therapy works especially well for this kind of somatic work—you’re in your own environment, which helps your system feel safe.

Plus, you can use personal comfort items (even pets!) and skip the commute.

Sessions are $200 for 55 minutes.

Payment is due at the time of each session. I accept credit or debit card, HSA, and Zelle.

If you’re interested in adding the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) or Rest and Restore Protocol (RRP), these are offered as additional services with their own pricing. You can read more on the SSP page and RRP page, or we can talk together about whether either is a good fit for you.

I don’t accept insurance, but I can provide a monthly superbill if you’d like to submit for out-of-network reimbursement. Some clients are able to get partial reimbursement, depending on their plan.

You’ll always know the cost up front. Under federal law (the No Surprises Act), you’re entitled to a Good Faith Estimate of the expected cost of services. If you ever receive a bill $400 or more above that estimate, you can dispute it.
