Ab (Abigail) Krumbein Somatic Therapy

We all deserve to feel safe and connected. Sometimes, overwhelming things happen that prevent us from feeling safe and settled in the world. In therapy, we support the strengths that have helped you survive and grow your capacity to move towards the life you long for. Whatever you are experiencing, be that anxiety, depression, or the pain of trauma or oppression, together we will collaborate to tend to what hurts and to nurture the vitality that exists inside you. I approach this process somatically, meaning we will listen for your sensations, emotions, movements, and memories as clues to guide the healing journey. I also believe we heal in relationship. I offer a place to explore your experience of connection and to practice how you want to relate with yourself and others. In my therapy practice, I specialize in helping sick and disabled people connect to themselves and their bodies. I am very knowledgeable about hEDS, and common co-occuring disorders like MCAS and POTS. I use this knowledge to help my clients come home to their bodies, learning tools to live well with illness. I work with sick and disabled people, queer, trans, and nonbinary people, folks practicing non-monogamy and polyamory, artists, healers, and activists. My style is warm, playful, gentle, and experiential. Please feel free to reach out for a free consultation to see if we feel like a good fit.
