Anxiety and depression are pervasive in our society.  It can be difficult to know what to do or where to turn when stress gets the best of us or we struggle with emotional ups and downs.  Sometimes we feel stuck and get into difficult patterns of relating with ourselves and with those we love. 

Somatic (body-oriented) psychotherapy helps us to slow down and be present with what is actually happening inside.  When we want change there are ways to shift feeling stuck from the inside out and to practice new ways of being. 

My name is Jackie Richards and I am a California Licensed Somatic Psychotherapist who works with people from all different backgrounds to find relief from anxiety and depression.  Together, we help you to cultivate greater ease and fulfillment in relationships and in life's transitions. 

PLEASE NOTE: I am unable to take on new clients at this time and will be on leave starting June 2024. See Contact/Resources page for additional referrals.
