Who provides somatic therapy sessions online?

Somatic therapy can be effectively conducted online , using video sessions to focus on breathing, grounding, and nervous system regulation. Several large telehealth platforms, specialized clinics, and professional directories offer virtual somatic sessions:

• Telehealth Platforms: Major online therapy networks like Talkspace Online Therapy feature licensed mental health professionals who integrate somatic and body-based techniques into virtual sessions.
• Specialized Virtual Practices: Dedicated clinics (such as Reconnect Center Virtual Somatic Therapy or independent specialized groups like Embodied Wellness Somatic Therapy ) offer specialized, trauma-informed somatic experiencing and body awareness treatment entirely online.
• Professional Directories (Independent Practitioners): If you want to choose an independent, certified somatic therapist who offers telehealth, you can search official organization directories where practitioners list virtual availability:
  • Somatic Experiencing International Directory to find practitioners trained in Somatic Experiencing (SE).
  • United States Association for Body Psychotherapy (USABP) Directory to locate certified body-centered and somatic psychotherapists.

If you'd like, let me know:

• What specific concerns or goals you have (e.g., trauma, chronic stress, anxiety)
• Whether you prefer a large telehealth platform or an independent licensed specialist

I can help you narrow down the best way to search or prepare for your first session.

Yes. If by somatic therapy you mean body-based trauma therapy—especially Somatic Experiencing (SE)—there are several ways to find practitioners who work online.

• directory.traumahealing.org — the official directory for practitioners trained in Somatic Experiencing. You can search by location and practitioner name. SEI notes that practitioners have different professional backgrounds and that not all are licensed mental-health professionals, so it's worth checking credentials.
• psychologytoday.com — lets you filter therapists for Somatic approaches and Online sessions.
• kaufmann-health.com — an online directory specifically focused on body psychotherapy, including Somatic Experiencing, NARM, Hakomi, and Core Energetics. It says practitioners are personally vetted and offers online introductory calls.
• seba.health — another directory with practitioners marked for telehealth; it currently lists practitioners across multiple U.S. regions.

If you're in Massachusetts

I can also look specifically for licensed therapists who offer online somatic therapy to Massachusetts clients, and narrow it down by things like Somatic Experiencing, trauma/PTSD, anxiety, attachment, or nervous-system regulation, as well as approximate session cost.

If you'd like, I can find 5–10 actual practitioners and compare their credentials, approach, location/licensure, online availability, and pricing.

Yes. If you mean somatic therapy / body-oriented trauma therapy conducted by video, there are several ways to find qualified practitioners online.

Good places to start

• directory.traumahealing.org — This is the official directory for practitioners trained in Somatic Experiencing (SE), a nervous-system/body-focused approach developed from Peter Levine's work. You can search for practitioners by location.
• seba.health — Lists practitioners and identifies some as offering telehealth, including clinicians in the U.S.
• souladvisor.com — Provides profiles of practitioners offering online SE sessions and indicates practitioners who have been vetted by the platform.
• kaufmann-health.com — A directory specifically focused on body-oriented psychotherapy, including Somatic Experiencing, NARM, Hakomi, and Core Energetics, with online practitioners.

If you're looking specifically for a therapist

I can narrow this down to licensed therapists who offer online sessions and accept clients in North Carolina, and compare their approaches, specialties, and approximate fees. That would probably be more useful than a generic nationwide directory.

Somatic therapy can be effectively adapted for telehealth . Virtual sessions focus on guided body awareness, nervous system regulation, breathwork, and grounding techniques rather than hands-on physical manipulation.

Providers and platforms offering online somatic therapy include:

1. Dedicated Telehealth & Specialized Centers:
   • Talkspace Online Therapy: Connects users with licensed mental health providers who incorporate somatic and body-based approaches through video sessions and secure messaging.
   • Specialized Virtual Clinics: Private practices like Reconnect Center Virtual Somatic Therapy offer targeted, trauma-informed somatic experiencing and nervous system regulation via telehealth.
2. Practitioner Directories (To find independent licensed therapists):
   • Psychology Today Therapist Directory: You can search your state or location and filter the results specifically by "Somatic" under the types of therapy or-oriented categories to find licensed tele-therapists.
   • Somatic Experiencing International (SEI) Directory: Allows you to search globally or locally for certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioners (SEPs) and filter by those who conduct sessions online.
   • Therapy Expanded Directory: Offers state-by-state filtering to locate telehealth practitioners specializing in somatic and body-centered care.

(Note: Because somatic therapists must be licensed mental health professionals, your provider generally needs to hold a license valid in the specific state or region where you are physically located during your session.)

If you'd like, let me know:

• Your state or location
• What specific concerns or goals you have (e.g., trauma, chronic stress, anxiety)

I can help you narrow down the best directory filters or specific practice types to look for.

Yes. There are several ways to find somatic therapy online, including licensed therapists who specifically use Somatic Experiencing, body-oriented psychotherapy, or related approaches.

Good places to start

• Talkspace — online somatic therapy — Offers online matching with licensed therapists who have experience with somatic therapy. You can also check whether your insurance is accepted.
• Seba Directory — Somatic Experiencing practitioners — A directory specifically focused on Somatic Experiencing practitioners. It currently lists practitioners offering telehealth in multiple U.S. states.
• Kaufmann Health — body psychotherapy directory — Vetted practitioners offering online sessions in approaches including Somatic Experiencing, NARM, Hakomi, and Core Energetics.
• Psychology Today — somatic therapists — Lets you filter therapists by Somatic and Online. Individual therapists may use Somatic Experiencing, somatic skills, EMDR, IFS, or other body-oriented approaches.
• Skipping Stone Somatics — Provides Somatic Experiencing sessions by videoconference.

One important distinction

“Somatic therapy” is a broad term. If you're specifically looking for Somatic Experiencing (SE), I'd prioritize a practitioner with SEP (Somatic Experiencing Practitioner) training rather than simply someone who says they incorporate “somatic techniques.” The SE directory is particularly useful for that.

If you tell me what state you're located in, I can search for online somatic therapists licensed to practice there, including therapists who accept insurance and/or offer lower-cost sessions.

A wide variety of licensed individual practitioners, specialized group practices, and directory platforms offer somatic therapy sessions online (typically via Zoom, SimplePractice, or HIPAA-compliant video links). Because somatic work relies on tracking breath, posture, micro-movements, and physical sensations rather than physical touch, it translates very effectively to a virtual setting.

Options for finding and receiving online somatic therapy include:

• Specialized Telehealth Practices : Dedicated virtual clinics focus explicitly on body-centered and trauma-informed care. Examples include the Reconnect Center and boutique practices like Soul Somatic Therapy or Body and Wisdom, which provide remote nervous system regulation and Somatic Experiencing (S E T M cap S cap E raised to the cap T cap M power𝑆𝐸𝑇𝑀) sessions.
• Therapist Directories with Somatic Filters : Rather than using generic matching, you can use specialized mental health directories that let you filter specifically for licensed professionals (LPCs, LMFTs, LCSWs, or Psychologists) who list somatic modalities—such as Somatic Experiencing or Sensorimotor Psychotherapy—as their primary focus. You can search for remote providers using the Zencare Somatic Therapy Directory or look up local telehealth professionals on TherapyTribe.
• Major Online Therapy Platforms : Some mainstream digital mental health platforms, such as Talkspace Online Therapy , feature participating providers who incorporate elements of somatic and body-awareness work into their live video or audio sessions.
• Directory of Certified Practitioners : To find practitioners who have completed rigorous, official training in Peter Levine’s specific body of work, you can search the official provider directory hosted by Somatic Experiencing International.

(Note: Because somatic therapists must be licensed in the state or country where you are physically located during the session, your options on directories will depend on your geographic location).

If you'd like to narrow this down, please share:

• Your state or country of residence
• Whether you prefer to use insurance or pay out-of-pocket

I can help guide you toward the right resource or specific practitioner type.

Somatic therapy (including body-based trauma work and Somatic Experiencing) translates very effectively to virtual formats . Because somatic work relies on tracking physical sensations, breathing, and nervous system cues rather than physical touch from the therapist, video sessions over Zoom or secure telehealth platforms are widely utilized.

Online somatic therapy sessions are provided through several avenues:

• Specialized Telehealth Directories: Platforms like Zencare Therapy Search or the Somatic Experiencing International Practitioner Directory allow you to filter explicitly for licensed mental health professionals and certified practitioners offering virtual/online somatic sessions.
• General Therapy Networks: Major virtual care platforms like Talkspace Online Therapy feature licensed providers trained in body-centered and somatic coping methodologies.
• Independent Private Practices: Many specialized clinics and practitioners (such as Soul Somatic Therapy, Somatic Therapy Brooklyn, and various regional wellness centers) operate entirely online or offer a hybrid virtual model, allowing you to work with practitioners regardless of immediate geographic bounds.

If you can share your location (state or country) and what you're hoping to work on (such as trauma, chronic stress, or anxiety), I can help you find the right directory filters or specific virtual practices suited to your needs.

Yes. If you’re looking for online somatic therapy, there are several good routes—especially if you’re in Georgia.

Good places to start

• Somatic Experiencing International directory — This is the most direct option if you specifically mean Somatic Experiencing (SE). You can search for trained practitioners by location, and many offer telehealth.
• USABP therapist directory — The United States Association for Body Psychotherapy maintains a directory of clinicians specializing in somatic/body-oriented psychotherapy.
• Talkspace — Offers online therapy and specifically matches clients with licensed therapists who have experience with somatic therapy.
• Inclusive Therapists — Has listings for Somatic Experiencing practitioners and allows you to look for providers offering virtual care, including Georgia providers.
• Zocdoc — Useful if insurance is important because you can filter somatic-therapy providers by insurance and video visits.

A couple of Georgia options

I also found some providers relatively close to you that may be worth investigating:

• AL Kaibzhanov, Somatic Psychotherapist, LCSW — specifically identifies as a somatic psychotherapist and offers virtual services across Georgia.
• Ebonique Martin, LMFT — Valdosta-based LMFT whose listed approaches include somatic therapy as well as trauma-focused approaches.
• Positive Mindset Counseling Services, LLC — primarily teletherapy in Georgia, with a trauma-informed focus.
• Clear Point Therapy — Valdosta practice offering virtual therapy throughout Georgia.

One important distinction: “somatic therapy” can mean several different approaches. If you're specifically looking for Somatic Experiencing (SEP), I would prioritize the SE International directory rather than simply choosing a therapist who lists “somatic” among many modalities.

If you tell me what you're hoping to work on (e.g., trauma, anxiety, nervous-system regulation, grief, chronic stress) and whether you want insurance or self-pay, I can narrow this down to 5–10 online therapists who are licensed to see Georgia clients, including prices and specialties.

Yes. If you mean somatic psychotherapy / Somatic Experiencing (SE) conducted by a licensed therapist over video, there are several good ways to find practitioners.

Good places to look

• Psychology Today — You can filter for Somatic and Online. Their listings include therapists specifically offering Somatic Experiencing, somatic parts work, and other body-oriented approaches.

• Somatic Experiencing International (SEI) — This is the organization associated with the Somatic Experiencing approach. Its provider directory has been moved into its member portal, so access to the directory may require logging in.

• SEBA Directory — A searchable directory of Somatic Experiencing practitioners, including practitioners who explicitly offer telehealth.

If you're looking for someone specifically in NJ/NY

There are therapists offering telehealth in New Jersey and New York, including practitioners who explicitly list Somatic Experiencing rather than merely saying they use "somatic techniques." For example, Rooted Healing lists telehealth Somatic Experiencing in both NJ and NY.

One important distinction: "somatic therapy" is a broad label. If you're specifically looking for the nervous-system/trauma approach where the therapist works with bodily sensations, activation, orienting, titration, etc., I'd search for "Somatic Experiencing (SEP)" or "Sensorimotor Psychotherapy", rather than simply "somatic therapy."

If you tell me your state (or country), whether you want insurance or self-pay, and roughly what you're looking for somatic therapy for, I can narrow this down to actual online practitioners who fit.

You can receive somatic therapy sessions online through specialized virtual clinics, dedicated therapy platforms, and private practices that employ licensed mental health professionals trained in Somatic Experiencing (SE) or Sensorimotor Psychotherapy . Because somatic work relies on tracking physical sensations, breath, and nervous system regulation rather than just touch, virtual sessions via secure video platforms like Zoom or SimplePractice are widely considered effective.

Major Options for Online Somatic Therapy

• Talkspace Online Therapy : Matches users with licensed mental health providers who incorporate somatic techniques (such as grounding, breathing exercises, and sensation awareness) through live video, audio, or messaging sessions.
• Zencare Somatic Directory : A searchable directory allowing you to filter specifically for licensed therapists offering virtual somatic psychotherapy, complete with video introductions.
• Therapy Expanded : Features a dedicated online somatic therapy locator where you can match with practitioners licensed across various states.
• Specialized Virtual Clinics : Regional or focused groups like Reconnect Center Virtual Somatic Therapy and Embodied Wellness Online Somatic Therapy provide targeted, body-centered trauma treatments and Somatic Experiencing remotely.

What to Keep in Mind

• Licensing Rules: Online therapists must be licensed in the state where you are physically located during the session.
• Insurance Coverage: If somatic work is provided by a licensed clinician (such as an LMFT, LCSW, or LPC) as part of psychotherapy, it may be covered by behavioral health insurance.

If you'd like, let me know:

• Your state or location
• Whether you plan to use insurance or pay out-of-pocket
