Alison Cariello
(She/Her/Hers)
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)
Welcome! I love to support my clients to safely live more in their body using somatic techniques. Please call for a NO risk consultation!
Welcome! I'm Alison, a licensed somatic therapist with nearly 10 years of experience helping individuals live more embodied life. If you're seeking a deeper connection to yourself and looking to address issues that traditional therapy may not fully address, you are in the right place. As a somatic therapist, I believe that true healing and personal growth occur when we reconnect with our bodies and the sensations they hold. My approach integrates both traditional talk therapy and body-centered practices to address the mind-body connection. I am deeply passionate about somatic psychotherapy because I believe that our bodies hold valuable insights and pathways to healing. Witnessing clients reconnect with their bodies and experience profound shifts in their lives is incredibly fulfilling. I am dedicated to supporting you as you explore this approach and discover new ways to live more fully.
