Therapy Can Help You Take Back Control Of Your Life

Unresolved trauma can worsen if left untreated. Somatic therapy is a holistic approach to healing. We combine psychotherapy and physical therapy to reduce tension and discomfort. Our therapists create a safe and compassionate atmosphere where you can identify the source of emotional disconnection. 

Who We Are

Why Choose JuneDay Therapy

Do you remember the pure spirit you embodied at 6 years old? Over time, life’s challenges can distance you from the beautiful enthusiasm, excitement, and energy you felt for living.

When this happens, many of us develop defense mechanisms – be it anger, striving for perfection, or other distractions – as a way to cope with past traumas, the aftermath of loss, or the weight of having to mask your true identity.

At JuneDay Therapy, we believe you don’t have to feel alone on this journey; you don’t have to cover up who you are or diminish your light. We will use our experience and expertise to help you rediscover the inherent value and lovability of your true self.

Our mission is to guide you towards releasing those burdens, approaching your struggles with understanding rather than blame, and helping you reconnect with the inner person you know is striving to shine.
