TRAUMA THERAPY FOR ADULTS + TEENS IN CALIFORNIA, MARYLAND + DC

Trauma leaves deep, invisible scars on our wellbeing and shapes our lives in ways we don’t even realize.

At Bay Area Somatics, we understand that trauma is more than an event…

Trauma is a difficult moment in time that gets trapped in our nervous system. Trauma from the past can wire us to respond in unhelpful ways to current circumstances.

We help people transform past pain into present-day resilience.

Our compassionate therapists are dedicated to providing you with a safe space to process your trauma, learn from it, heal wounds, and grow into a stronger, wiser version of yourself.
