IFS & Somatic Therapy

Having a positive, supportive relationship with a therapist who listens deeply to you and provides appropriate support can be transformative. I primarily use Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Somatic Approaches.

EMDR
Therapy

EMDR facilitates the reprocessing of distressing memories, reducing their emotional intensity. This therapy is effective in treating trauma-related concerns and promoting emotional resilience and well-being.

Support Groups

Sharing with others is an important component of well-being. So much trauma and pain is caused in group contexts (family, school, etc). We have the power to create spaces together to heal past wounds and learn new ways of being.

Clinical Consultation

I offer consultation to other therapists who are looking to deepen their presence with clients. Therapy can be a very isolating profession, and it is important to have spaces to process our work and receive support.

Therapy Sessions

My Approach

I primarily focus on Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Somatic approaches, and make space for exploring how our social context impacts our mental health. I believe connection with nature or spirit, creativity, and community are important foundations of healing and ongoing wellness.

Credentials

I hold a Master of Science in Counseling from San Francisco State University and am a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience.

Contact

"Caren is a caring and intuitive healer, and I have benefited deeply from her support and guidance. I am better able to recognize the physical clues that my body gives me and to respond to them with loving attention. This awareness and growing responsiveness to my own needs and wants has contributed to a clearer and more embodied sense of self and purpose."
