Background and approach

Her background includes roles in special education and school guidance, plus years of clinical work across inpatient and outpatient settings. That wide experience informs a calm, steady presence in sessions. She has supported people through a broad range of behavioral health diagnoses and situations encountered in medical and veteran contexts.

In the therapy room she uses body-aware somatic techniques alongside cognitive and acceptance-based strategies. Sessions also draw on attachment-focused ideas and a client-centered stance to help people feel understood. Practical skills are paired with attention to how emotions show up in the body.

Naomia aims to make therapy straightforward and useful. She listens without judgment and helps people build tools for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, anger, and compulsive behaviors. She also assists with grieving, relationship conflicts, and navigating major life changes.

Sessions are offered in English and Naomia accepts international clients. She works through common online formats so people can find a rhythm that fits their life. The emphasis is on steady progress and real-world coping skills.

How somatic and evidence-based approaches work online

Somatic-informed work helps people notice how emotions appear in the body and learn simple grounding and movement strategies to reduce distress. This approach can be useful for trauma, chronic pain, anxiety, and stress by pairing body awareness with practical coping steps.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and build actions that match those values, even when uncomfortable feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to change mood and functioning. Both ACT and CBT are practical options for depression, anxiety, coping with life changes, and ADHD-related challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose or blend methods based on each person’s goals, needs, and preferences. That process may shift as progress is made, with regular check-ins about what helps most.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, continue work during life transitions, and access care from different locations. The range of formats also allows people to pick the mode that feels safest and most effective for them.
