Karen Formisano, Somatic Guide and Psychotherapist

Hello there. I'm Karen.

I am a psychotherapy-trained clinician, Somatic Practitioner, and Alignment Coach committed to being of service to others on their healing path. With over five years in private practice, my mission is to help people thrive by identifying the blocks keeping them from living in alignment with their Truth.

Through compassionate somatic guidance rooted in trauma-informed therapy and nervous system work, I help clients experience real relief. This is not about forced performance; it is about learning to hold gently what you've been carrying. Somatics is the awareness of the patterns and activations experienced in the body and mind. My work centers on learning to embody those states and be with them in order to gently put them down, incrementally growing our capacity for the unpleasant.

I will guide you through the exploration of your patterns and beliefs, teaching practices and lifestyle changes to help you see what needs to shift in order to be in more Alignment with who you’re meant to Be.
