Online somatic therapy is available through major telehealth platforms, which provide access to licensed therapists, as well as via specialized, smaller practices or lower-cost directories. For general teletherapy platforms, you can specifically request practitioners trained in somatic approaches. Alternatively, specialized directories and independent somatic practitioners offer more targeted, body-focused trauma recovery sessions.

1TalkspaceBest for those using wide-reaching platforms. While not exclusively somatic, you can request matching with licensed therapists who use body-centered and trauma-informed somatic approaches.
Psychology Today Therapy Directory enables you to filter local licensed professionals by zip code and select "Somatic" under the types of therapy filter, with many offering telehealth options.[](https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists?category=somatic)
Yes. There are several ways to find somatic therapy online, including licensed therapists who specifically practice Somatic Experiencing (SE), Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, or broader body-based approaches.
Since you're in California, these are useful options:
Alma — lists 223 California-licensed therapists who offer somatic therapy, with filters for insurance, availability, and consultations.
Zencare — currently lists 41 therapists serving California with Somatic Experiencing (SE), including providers offering online-only sessions.
Psychology Today — has a somatic-therapy directory for Los Angeles, including therapists explicitly offering online-only sessions and practitioners using Somatic Experiencing.
Somatic Experiencing practitioner directories — if you specifically want SE, rather than somatic therapy generally, directories such as SEBA identify practitioners and indicate which offer telehealth.
Talkspace — offers online somatic therapy and matches clients with licensed therapists who have experience with the approach.
One important distinction: “somatic therapy” is a broad category. If you're specifically looking for Somatic Experiencing® (SE), I'd search for a therapist with SEP (Somatic Experiencing Practitioner) training rather than relying on the word “somatic” alone.
If you tell me what you're looking for—trauma/PTSD, anxiety, relationship issues, chronic stress, or general nervous-system regulation—I can also find 5–10 specific online therapists who serve California, including their credentials, specialties, approximate fees, and whether they take insurance.
Therapy Expanded : A specialized resource and directory highlighting individual online somatic practitioners and holistic counselors (such as Insight Clinical Counseling and Honest Space Psychotherapy) detailed on Therapy Expanded.[]()
If you'd like to narrow this down, let me know:
Your state or country (since telehealth licenses are location-dependent)
Whether you prefer a large national platform or an independent specialist
If you are looking to address a specific focus (like trauma, anxiety, or chronic stress)
I can help point you toward the most appropriate resources.
Yes. There are quite a few therapists who provide somatic therapy online, including clinicians trained specifically in Somatic Experiencing (SE), as well as therapists who combine somatic work with IFS, EMDR, attachment therapy, or mindfulness.
Since you’re in New York, some options I found that explicitly offer online work include:
Sana Idnani, LMHC — online-only; combines somatic therapy with IFS, attachment-based and nervous-system regulation approaches.
Eric M. Hovis, LMHC — online-only; integrates somatic approaches with IFS, EMDR and psychodynamic therapy.
Austin Hodges, MA, LMHC/LPC — online-only; focuses on trauma and grief and uses somatic therapy, EMDR and Brainspotting.
Ruby Garcia, LCSW — online-only; uses a somatic-integrative approach, particularly for trauma, anxiety, dissociation and relationship concerns.
Lauren Kaczmarek, LCSW — online; integrates traditional psychotherapy with Somatic Experiencing and works with trauma and shame.
You can also search the Somatic Experiencing practitioner directory. Their organization says that most SE practitioners offer online sessions, and the directory allows you to search for practitioners based on your needs.
If you tell me what you're hoping to work on (for example, trauma, anxiety, grief, relationship patterns, chronic stress, feeling disconnected from your body) and whether you want insurance, private pay, or either, I can narrow this down to a handful of online therapists who are licensed to see New York clients.
Yes. If you’re looking for online somatic therapy, there are several ways to find a qualified practitioner.
Somatic Experiencing® International (SEI) — SEI maintains an official practitioner directory where you can search for practitioners by location. This is particularly useful if you specifically want Somatic Experiencing (SE/SEP) rather than somatic therapy more broadly.
Rula — has a Florida directory specifically for therapists offering somatic therapy, with virtual therapy available and filters for things such as specialty and insurance.
Amy Hagerstrom, LCSW, SEP — provides online somatic therapy throughout Florida and is licensed in Florida and Illinois. Her practice focuses on adults dealing with trauma, anxiety, and chronic stress.
Seba's Somatic Experiencing directory — lists practitioners and identifies those offering telehealth; its current U.S. directory includes practitioners in multiple states.
SoulAdvisor — offers a directory of vetted Somatic Experiencing practitioners with an online-session filter.
One important distinction: "somatic therapy" is a broad term, whereas Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a specific approach developed by Peter Levine. Also, SEI notes that practitioners in its directory have varying professional licenses and that being listed does not itself constitute clinical licensure or endorsement.
If you're looking specifically for a licensed therapist who does online somatic therapy in Florida, I can narrow this down to several providers and compare their credentials, specialties, approach, insurance/self-pay options, and consultation availability.
Specialized Trauma & Regional Centers: Many private clinical practices operate entirely or partially online. For instance, specialized centers like the Reconnect Center offer virtual somatic and trauma-informed therapy via telehealth for clients within specific regions (such as California).[](https://www.reconnectcenter.com/therapies/somatic-therapy-online/)
Yes. If you’re looking for somatic therapy online in the U.S., there are several good ways to find a provider:
Somatic Experiencing® International (SEI) Practitioner Directory — a specialized directory for practitioners trained in Somatic Experiencing, a body-oriented approach developed by Peter Levine. You can search by location and practitioner.
Psychology Today — has a dedicated somatic-therapy search and lets you filter for therapists offering online/telehealth sessions.
TherapyDen — lets you search licensed online therapists by specialty, including somatic therapy, and filter by state, insurance, cost, and other criteria.
One important distinction: “somatic therapy” is a broad term, while Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a particular training/modality. If you specifically want SE, I'd start with the SEI directory.
If you're in Illinois, I can also look for specific online providers who serve Illinois, including their credentials, specialties, approximate fees, and whether they accept insurance.
Yes. There are quite a few therapists who offer somatic therapy online, including practitioners specifically trained in Somatic Experiencing (SE), as well as therapists who incorporate somatic/embodiment techniques into broader trauma therapy.
A few good places to start:
Somatic Experiencing International (SEI) directory — probably the best place to look if you specifically want a practitioner trained in Somatic Experiencing. Their directory lists practitioners who are in or have completed SE training.
Psychology Today — you can filter for Somatic and Online and then look at each therapist's license, specialties, approach, and fees.
SoulAdvisor — has a directory specifically of certified Somatic Experiencing practitioners offering online sessions.
Somatic Therapists directory — specifically lists therapists who work somatically and offer online sessions in the U.S., U.K., and Australia.
Alma — if you're looking for someone licensed in Florida, it currently lists therapists offering somatic therapy and lets you compare insurance and availability.
A couple of specific online practitioners
Amy Hagerstrom, LCSW, SEP offers online somatic therapy throughout Florida and Illinois. She's a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, and works with adults dealing with trauma, anxiety, and stress.
There are also numerous telehealth Somatic Experiencing practitioners in Florida, including practitioners listed in SE-focused directories.
One important distinction: "somatic therapy" is a broad category. If you're specifically looking for Somatic Experiencing (Peter Levine's SE approach), I'd prioritize someone with the SEP (Somatic Experiencing Practitioner) designation rather than simply someone who says they use "somatic techniques."
If you tell me what state you're located in, whether you want a male or female therapist, and whether you're looking for trauma/PTSD, anxiety, relationship issues, chronic stress, or something else, I can narrow this down to 5–10 online therapists who appear to be a particularly good fit, including approximate fees and whether they take insurance.
