Boston Somatic Collective

an embodied practice supporting nervous system regulation, healing & resilience

Somatic Experiencing®, yoga, EMDR, and psychotherapy in Boston and online.

Supporting Nervous System Capacity & Embodied Wellbeing

You may look like you are managing life well on the outside while internally feeling overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or stuck in patterns of stress and survival.

At Boston Somatic Collective, we take a whole-person, present moment approach that integrates psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing®, EMDR, and yoga therapy. Our focus is on supporting nervous system regulation and creating meaningful, lasting change that goes beyond insight alone.

Rather than only talking through challenges, we work with how stress and experience show up in the body in real time. This allows healing to be something you directly experience through greater awareness, regulation, and connection, not just something you understand intellectually.

Over time, many clients notice a stronger sense of groundedness, emotional resilience, self-trust, and ease in their daily lives. The intention is not perfection or fixing yourself, but expanding your capacity to feel safe, flexible, and supported as you move through life.

Sessions are personalized and may include talk therapy, Somatic Experiencing®, EMDR, yoga therapy, and other embodied practices based on your needs and goals.

In-person sessions are available in East Boston, with telehealth offered throughout Massachusetts, Maine, and Rhode Island.

If you are ready to feel more connected to yourself and supported in your daily life, we invite you to reach out to schedule a consultation.

Modalities

Somatic Experiencing

Somatic Experiencing® is a gentle, body-centered approach designed to help release deeply held stress and tension from the nervous system. Developed by Peter A. Levine, it supports the body in resolving stuck fight, flight, or freeze responses while building greater presence, resilience, and emotional balance.
Yoga Therapy

Yoga therapy is a holistic approach that uses movement, breathwork, and mindfulness practices to support physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Traditional yoga techniques are thoughtfully adapted to meet each person’s needs, helping cultivate greater self-awareness, resilience, and a more connected relationship with the body.
EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapeutic approach that helps reduce the emotional distress connected to traumatic memories. EMDR supports the brain in reprocessing difficult experiences through guided eye movements and other forms of bilateral sensory stimulation.
Somatic Therapy Groups

Now recruiting! Somatic therapy processing groups offer a supportive space to explore emotions through the body. Using gentle, body-based practices and group reflection, participants build awareness, regulation, and deeper connection to themselves and others. Email for more details.
Relational Talk Therapy

Relational talk therapy focuses on the role of healthy, supportive relationships in your overall well-being. It explores how past experiences, along with social and cultural influences, shape how you connect with others today. Sessions blend traditional talk therapy with skill-building, psychoeducation, and somatic practices.
Therapy Intensives

Therapy intensives are longer-format sessions designed to be effective and efficient to support your treatment goals. They can be focused on EMDR or Somatic Experiencing. Intensives are 90 or 120 minutes done 1-5x per week depending on treatment goals, modality and timeline. You can also have an intensive session as part of ongoing therapy.
Reiki

Reiki is a gentle energy-based practice that supports relaxation, stress reduction, and overall nervous system regulation. It can be especially helpful for those with stress, burnout, anxiety, or feeling disconnected from their bodies. It can be done on its own or as a part of individual therapy.
Workshops

Customizable workshops are designed to support nervous system regulation, embodiment, and trauma-informed growth for clinicians, organizations, and community groups. Topics can be tailored to meet the needs of your group. To learn more or to arrange a workshop, please email us to discuss details and availability.
