Soma Aloia, SolDance Therapy & Somatic Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, CYT, OrdM
I create a safe space for you to slow down, settle, and be yourself. Always an invitation. My work is deeply meaningful and something I am passionate about - knowing how we can come into our full potential given the right support - kindness, patience, acknowledgement, and deep listening. "Being-with" holds the greatest potential for transformation. I hold you in the place you need the deepest support. We sit and listen, together. Understanding our stories is important for starting healing, but learning to be with the body to allow the unspoken voice of frozen traumatic imprints to thaw and heal, is the only way to true behavior change and transformation. My work with you helps you do all this. Schedule a 15-minute complimentary intro call to find out more. https://www.somaaloia.com/contact-soma-aloia
While highly trained and educated, my greatest professional growth and abilities come from the Health of my own healing experiences - my inner laboratory - and from deep learning with my clients themselves. It brings me great joy to be of service to all ages, supporting and witnessing our "being and becoming" as humans, in spite of what is going on around us. Can we heal years and layers of deep wounding and hurt? Yes we can! Over and over again, I have witnessed it... yes we can! We create secure attachment in a turbulent world, one person at a time.
I dedicate my practice to my teachers who've come before me and to my precious clients - who always believe enough in themselves to be courageous... to trust their hearts even if "the seas catch fire". It is an honor to witness and support this, along with supporting the shift happening in the whole world because of this work, and because of love. I look forward to meeting you in the spaciousness of this work together.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I work as an integrative art psychotherapist and IFS practitioner, offering a thoughtful and collaborative way of working. Therapy with me doesn’t need to involve art unless it feels useful; some sessions focus on conversation, while others may use images, objects, or simple creative materials to explore experiences that are difficult to put into words.
Before training as a psychotherapist, I spent many years working in design and technology. That background continues to shape how I work – I’m interested in patterns, systems, and how different parts interact, both internally and in our wider lives. My decision to retrain grew out of lived experience as well as professional curiosity, and I bring both into the therapy room.
I work in an engaged, grounded way, staying close to what matters and adjusting pace as needed. Clients often come to me when they want to understand themselves more clearly, work with complexity rather than bypass it, and make changes that feel considered and sustainable.

Tendril Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
At Tendril Therapy, we believe growth happens in spaces that feel safe, supportive, and genuinely human. Like tendrils in nature gently finding their way toward light, we see healing as a gradual, organic process of connection and expansion. Our work honors each person’s unique story, supporting clients as they move toward deeper self-understanding, meaningful change, and a more connected way of being.
