Lauren Maher

LMFT, C-IAYT

Licensed In:
California, Florida
“I work with artists, creatives, and high achieving individuals who are experiencing anxiety, trauma, PTSD, narcissistic abuse, grief, and relationship issues, as well as those who are simply seeking greater self-awareness and personal growth. My clients tend to be curious, insightful people who are highly motivated to create change in their lives. However, even though they have often "done the work" in the past, they still find that their insight hasn't changed things in their day-to-day life. They may notice that they can't stop ruminating, their body stays tense, and that certain memories or situations carry an unpredictable charge that they can't shake. Trauma and anxiety don’t just live in the mind - they live in the nervous system and body. My work focuses on helping individuals process what’s been stored there so they finally feel calmer, clearer, and more like themselves again.”

About Somatic Therapy

Use the directory above to find a therapist who offers this approach. Compare profiles for their approach, availability, fees, and insurance.

Select the states where you’ll attend sessions, then ask the therapist to confirm they can work with you in each state.

What to expect

Somatic therapy is a body-centered approach for addressing a range of mental health issues. Rather than focusing only on thoughts and emotions, somatic therapists also pay attention to physical sensations, breathing, posture, movement, and how stress or trauma may show up in the body. Online somatic therapy sessions may include grounding exercises, body awareness practices, gentle movement, breathwork, and noticing sensations at a pace that feels manageable.

People often explore somatic therapy for stress, anxiety, trauma, emotional overwhelm, chronic tension, burnout, relationship patterns, or feeling disconnected from their body. It may be a useful approach if you want therapy that includes both emotional reflection and practical ways to feel more present, regulated, and grounded.

How to choose a therapist

When comparing online somatic therapy therapists, look for someone whose pacing, communication style, and approach feel safe and collaborative. Because somatic work is body-focused, it is important to choose a therapist who you feel comfortable with.

Review profiles for experience with concerns like trauma, anxiety, stress, nervous system regulation, or mind-body approaches. Before booking, ask how they use somatic therapy in telehealth, what a typical session looks like, and how they handle grounding if emotions become intense. A good fit should feel clear, respectful, and responsive to your needs.

Before you book

  • Ask about the provider’s experience with your concerns and goals.
  • Confirm availability, session fees, and your insurance coverage directly.
  • Check that the provider can work with you in each state where you will attend sessions.

Questions about this approach

How do I use this page to find an online therapist who offers somatic therapy?

Start by choosing the state where you will be located during online sessions. Then use filters to narrow your search by insurance, service type, age group, language, and therapy type. As you compare profiles, look for therapists who mention somatic therapy, body-centered therapy, nervous system regulation, or training in modalities such as Somatic Experiencing or Sensorimotor Therapy. You can then contact a provider or schedule a consultation to ask how they use somatic work in online care.

What should I ask before booking?

Ask how the therapist uses somatic therapy in telehealth sessions, what a typical session may look like, and whether their approach includes movement, breathwork, grounding, body awareness, or other techniques. You may also want to ask about their experience with your concerns, how they pace body-based work, and how they support clients who feel overwhelmed.

Does my therapist have to be licensed in my state, and what happens if I travel out of state?

In most cases, your therapist needs to be licensed in the state where you are physically located during the session. If you travel, move, attend school elsewhere, or split time between states, tell the therapist before booking so they can confirm whether they can continue care. You can also learn more about working with therapists licensed in multiple states.

Can somatic therapy be done virtually through telehealth therapy?

Yes, many therapists offer somatic therapy through telehealth. Online sessions may include body awareness, grounding skills, breath practices, gentle movement, tracking sensations, and talking through what you notice. Your therapist may adapt exercises so they feel safe and realistic in your space. Telehealth somatic therapy works best when you have privacy, a stable internet connection, and enough room to sit or move comfortably if movement is part of the session.

Who is somatic therapy best for?

Somatic therapy may be a good fit if you notice stress, anxiety, trauma responses, shutdown, tension, restlessness, or emotional overwhelm showing up in your body. It may also help if you have tried talk therapy before and want an approach that incorporates physical awareness. It is not only for trauma; many people use somatic therapy to build regulation skills, reconnect with their body, and feel more present in daily life.

Do somatic therapists need special certification or training?

Somatic therapy is a broad term, and different therapists may use different body-centered approaches. Some may have advanced training in specific somatic methods, while others may integrate somatic tools into general therapy. A therapist does not have to use one exact credential to offer somatic therapy, but it is reasonable to ask about their training, experience, and how they incorporate somatic techniques into therapy.

Does insurance cover online somatic therapy, and how does payment usually work?

Insurance coverage usually depends on your plan, the therapist’s network status, your location, and the type of service being provided.  Some providers may accept in network insurance, and others may be private pay or offer superbills for possible out-of-network reimbursement. Check each profile for insurance details, then confirm cost, payment method, cancellation policy, and any out-of-pocket fees before starting.

When is online somatic therapy not the right choice?

Online somatic therapy may not be the best fit during an immediate crisis, when emergency support is needed, when a higher level of care is required, or when you do not have a private space or reliable internet connection. It may also be difficult if body-based exercises feel unsafe without in-person support. If you are in immediate danger or need urgent help, contact local emergency services or call or text 988 right away.

Need urgent support? Therapy Expanded is not a crisis service. If you are in immediate danger, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. If you need urgent mental health, suicide, domestic violence, substance use, or LGBTQIA+ support, visit our crisis and mental health resources page.
