Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics & Somatic Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, HES
Living with chronic pain or illness can be physically, emotionally, spiritually, and financially exhausting. Our work honors the wisdom of your body while supporting greater resilience, self-compassion, and a more connected relationship with yourself. We address healing medical trauma, developmental trauma, and chronic stress, all of which create inflammation and chronic illness and pain.
Note: I specialize in helping thoughtful, sensitive adults whose symptoms don't fit neatly into one category. Anxiety, chronic inflammation, complex trauma, nervous system dysregulation, relationship patterns, burnout, and feeling disconnected from yourself often share deeper physiological and early developmental roots.

Dr. Cristal Lopez
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Welcome! You might be feeling disconnected from your family, friends, children, job, or even the world. I'm Dr. Cristal Lopez, and I believe that we all have powerful strengths. Together, we will explore yours to help you unlock your full potential, connect authentically with others, and show up as your true self. My training at top U.S. children's hospitals, including Children's Hospital Los Angeles, California Pacific Medical Center, Texas Children’s Hospital, and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, has provided me with over 6 years of experience working with children, adolescents, young and mid-life adults, and families.
For my younger clients, I use behavioral and play therapy techniques, while also supporting parents and families to foster healthy connections. With adolescents and adults, I draw on strength-based, humanistic, and relational principles to guide our work together.
Beyond traditional mental health concerns, I specialize and publish work in: coping with chronic illnesses, career-related issues (burnout, work-life balance), trauma, adverse childhood experiences, and stress related to first-responder families. I’m committed to guiding you, your child, or family to a more connected and fulfilling life. Invest in yourself!
