Somatic Therapy in Santa Barbara with Romi Cumes
My intention is to support individuals to get in touch with the lived experience of the body, as it pertains to body-mind-spirit healing, personal development, and relational growth. In therapy and in life, we sometimes need to challenge our edges in order to grow. I empower my clients to identify, explore, and ultimately transform stuck patterns and energy, so that they become more capable of living happy, balanced lives. My style is empathetic, nurturing, and direct.
The core vision of my practice is to deliver a transformative model of holistic wellness, and though I am clinically-trained and licensed, new clients should know my approach is not one of a standard psychotherapist. I draw from over twenty years of healing arts experience across the spectrum of psychology, bodywork, energy-healing, yoga and movement. From this perspective, I see through the lens of both a clinical somatic-relational psychotherapist and an intuitive healer.
So – welcome to a space that respects your journey, and understands that you may be seeking a recalibration, an awakening, or a new way forward. I recognize the courage it takes to forge your own path of growth and healing, and invite you to explore these pages to get a deeper sense of our offerings. If what you discover feels like it resonates, I encourage you to follow that feeling.
My intention is to support individuals to get in touch with the lived experience of the body, as it pertains to body-mind-spirit healing, personal development, and relational growth. My approach is theoretically holistic, however I am inspired by somatic and relational psychology, yoga/movement, intuitive (energy) healing, and the power of nature. I empower my clients to identify, explore, and ultimately transform stuck patterns and energy, so that they become more capable of living happy, balanced lives.
