EXCELLENT Based on 49 reviews Princess Jessica10/09/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't express enough how much Dara has helped me in my journey of spiritual growth and overcoming debilitating anxiety. Her warmth and kind-hearted nature instantly made me feel comfortable, and her knowledge and expertise in somatic therapy are truly impressive. Dara has provided me with tools that have completely transformed my life, allowing me to manage my anxiety in ways I never thought possible. She is not only incredibly personable but also deeply caring, always taking the time to understand and meet my needs. I also appreciate her flexibility with scheduling, which makes the whole experience even more supportive. I highly recommend Dara to anyone seeking meaningful healing and growth. Rabbi Gershuny12/08/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amanda took me to an incredibly deep and tender place. Her somatic atunement is profound, and her compassionate care is truly genuine. I will be forever grateful. Marc Azoulay26/06/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Chris and Emma's team bring an unique lens to counseling. They take a truly holistic view that combines cutting edge neuroscience with spiritual principles. I'd highly recommend them if you're feeling lost in your life or want to improve yourself. Sarah Rose22/06/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Chris Cannon is a dedicated practitioner who walks the walk. He is invested in his clients and his own continued growth personally and professionally. I highly recommend Chris as a solid Somatic Psychotherapist. Kellee Trautmann21/06/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've known Chris as a colleague for years and not only would trust him with any of my therapy clients or loved ones, but admire him as a human who never ceases to make me laugh and a courageous fellow spiritual seeker! Stephen Hutchins21/06/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amanda Goodrich is an angel and an amazing healer! She walks the walk that many only talk Andrew Rose20/06/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Chris demonstrates real compassion, attunement, and care, and brings deep curiosity to the science and art of psychotherapy. Highly recommended. neil peppler24/08/2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. There is no other therapy worth money. Somatic experiencing is the only way to heal your little one inside while understanding there is magic underneath the constructs of this goofy world. In my humble opinion all other therapy is a waste of money. Come bend your mind. I am a grumpy Marine veteran with a fair amount of adversity in my life. I have probably had 15 therapists in my life and a handful of mystical experiences self inflicted. Nothing came close to what I have been able to accomplish with somatic experiencing for both individual and couples therapy. Janet Fedeles06/08/2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had weekly sessions with Asa Dean, for 6 months. He is an excellent practitioner. Very knowledgeable in all aspects of this field. He is compassionate, warm, understanding, and very accepting. I highly recommend him. I also had 2 sessions with Dara Del Rio and she is an excellent practitioner as well. A gentle and kind person and also extremely knowledgeable. She has my highest regard and recommendation, as well. I believe the mission of Somatic Spritual Counseling, to help clients through their trauma and all this encompasses, is the best I have ever encountered. Thank you. Margaret Crowley23/04/2021Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did not have an 1:1 session with Emma but I did do one of her guided meditations and wanted to share my thoughts because it is something that is available for download for anyone who'd like try. Her offering, Finding Your Inner Ally, was a really great experience. I have done guided meditations before, but what stood out to me about this one is that Emma's approach is so accessible. Her style is very direct and creates a feeling of safety and empowerment. I never felt pressured to feel certain things and knew if I wanted to I could stop at any time. Ultimately, I did meet an ally and it brought me a message that was very timely and appreciated in that moment. I look forward to revisiting the practice in the future as well. If anyone would like to get a feel for what working with Emma might be like I definitely recommend trying one of her meditations.
I have seen many counselors throughout my life. Not only is Emma very personable and easy to talk to, but her unique
counseling approach is much more effective than any counseling I’ve ever had. Instead of trying to overcome my issues, she uses a technique to help me delve more deeper into them. Incredibly, she is able to do this with the sense of safety and support.
I have made more progress in my two months with her than I have in all the previous years of my counseling combined. Highly recommended. She’s amazing!
