Somatic Psychotherapy for passionate relationships
Raia Kogan, LMFT Do you long to express yourself more fully and freely in your career and creative pursuits?
Are you an individual or a couple seeking deeper intimacy, satisfaction, and authentic self-expression in relationships? Do habitual patterns or early traumatic experiences restrict your ability to attain your heart's desire in some part of your life? I specialize in helping clients deepen intimacy, passion, authenticity, and self-expression in relationships. I work with individuals and couples wh
o are growth-oriented and seeking to express their heart's desire more fully in career, relationships, spirituality, sexuality, and creative pursuits. Through a somatic and mindful approach, I will help you develop increased love and compassion for yourself and to bring curiosity to habitual patterns that no longer serve. I believe that our most difficult psychological and relational patterns initially emerged as a wise adaptation to early experiences that we were unable to deal with otherwise. Through somatic psychotherapy, we can gently melt through the layers of this conditioning, while learning and developing new resources and skills, so that your true nature can shine through more brightly and express more freely in your life. Healing begins when we can contact our experience in the moment with love, compassion, and acceptance, including the painful or uncomfortable parts of ourselves. Through developing increased awareness of your inner life and experience, you will learn to express yourself more fully with others in your life. Through developing acceptance and compassion towards yourself, you will be able to meet others in your life with greater receptivity and openness. Through the container of our work together, you can begin to practice relating with another person in a more intimate, vulnerable, and honest way.
