Embodiment, Intuitive Healing & Transformation
The core vision of Romi Cumes Somatic Therapy, P.C. is to offer a holistic approach to mental health, somatic therapy, intuitive healing, somatic education, and embodiment in Santa Barbara, and online aross California. With that intention, I support individuals in connecting with the lived experience of the body while exploring how it serves as a gateway to mind-body integration and transformation. I empower my clients to identify, explore, and ultimately shift stuck patterns, guiding them toward greater balance and trauma-informed resilience.
A Holistic Approach to Mental Health & Healing
Somatic psychotherapy can be a powerful vehicle for self-awareness and meaningful healing. Drawing from a background in psychology, bodywork, intuitive healing, yoga, and somatic therapy in Santa Barbara and beyond, I offer a unique and integrative approach. In both therapy and life, we are often invited to meet our edges in order to grow. My style is guided by empathy and intuitive curiosity, while remaining clinically grounded, trauma-informed, and rooted in the present moment.
While I am a licensed psychotherapist, I also bring an intuitive healer’s lens to my work—supporting clients in sensing and processing both somatic and subtle experiences. My approach extends beyond traditional talk therapy, opening a deeper, body-centered pathway toward healing and self-discovery.
With that, welcome to a space that honors your journey. Whether you’re seeking recalibration, transformation, or a new way forward, I honor the courage it takes to begin.

Transformative Healing Arts: Bodywork, Intuitive Healing and Yoga
Transformative Healing Arts centers on somatic bodywork and massage modalities, including Myofascial Release (MFR) and Craniosacral Therapy. Sessions support relaxation, nervous system regulation, pain management, injury recovery, and ongoing self-care. These approaches also invite deeper emotional and energetic awareness within the body. Sessions are offered in Santa Barbara, California, as well as nationally and internationally for retreats and special events.
Romi’s integrative approach draws from decades of experience in massage therapy, bodywork, and yoga instruction, along with advanced training in John F. Barnes Myofascial Release and Upledger Craniosacral Therapy (also referred to as cranial sacral therapy). These healing arts services support a deeper connection to the body and remain distinct from the psychotherapy services offered by Romi Cumes, LMFT and Associate Marriage & Family Therapists.
