Hi, I’m Lara (She/Her).

I’m a seasoned somatic psychotherapist, couples counselor, coach, writer, and artist. And I’m the creator of SomaField—my signature integrative approach to transformational client work.

SomaField is rooted in the belief that transformation happens when therapy is more than talk—it’s relational, somatic, and intelligent.

  • Not like talking into the void while someone nods from behind a clipboard.

  • It’s not about fixing you—it’s about listening closely for what you need and facilitating that unfolding.

  • It’s rooted in real relationship—and the genuine care I bring to every session.

What is SomaField?

At its core, The SomaField Approach to Transformational Client Work is more effective, more attuned, and more alive. It helps you experience real support, meaningful progress, and deep heartfelt care.

SomaField is guided by 8 core principles that shape how I work with clients:

  • Client Centered – You can expect empathy, respect, and true collaboration.

  • Socio-Cultural Attunement – I honor the social, cultural, and systemic forces shaping your lived experience.

  • Nervous System Literacy – I track and work with not just your story, but your inner state in relation to it.

  • Attachment Awareness – I pay close attention to how your early relationships shaped your current patterns, and I prioritize creating an alive, secure, and growth-nurturing relationship with you.

  • Synchronous Field – Together we create a kind of relational flow state where insight, presence, and transformation emerge.

  • Psychoeducation – I explain therapeutic concepts in plain language to help you name, normalize, and integrate your experiences.

  • Experiential + Somatic – We work directly with the body, emotions, imagination, and the present moment—this is where deep change happens.

  • Artistry – I draw on intuition and skill to navigate each session responsively, meeting you where you are and helping the process unfold in just the right way.

What a session feels like

  • You feel deeply seen, heard, and held in a spacious, compassionate field

  • You experience embodied shifts—so the work is felt, not just discussed

  • You receive grounded guidance rooted in experience and relational depth

  • You learn somatic tools, nervous system regulation, and relational clarity you can take into everyday life

Is SomaField right for you?

You’ll likely resonate if you’re...

  • Seeking grounded, spiritually alive support that feels real—not trendy

  • Craving both practical skill and deep insight—with clarity, nuance, and even humor

  • Drawn to relational and somatic work, not just cognitive processing

  • Longing for lasting change—a shift that carries forward beyond the therapy room
