Healing beyond words.Living beyond expectations.

Understanding isn’t enough to change the patterns that hold you back. Somatic psychotherapy offers a deeper way in—for an inspired love, life, and work.

Welcome

I’m Gal, a psychotherapist and teacher with nearly twenty years of experience helping people heal, deepen their relationships, and live more fully. My own search for growth began when I was a teenager, and it continues to shape how I work—with curiosity, warmth, and trust in what can emerge when we feel deeply met.

Read more about me

As a partner, father, and lifelong student, I’m learning alongside the people I work with. What draws me to this work is helping people move beyond familiar patterns and reconnect with their capacity for love, freedom, and an inspired life.

How I work

My approach brings together the body’s wisdom and the healing power of relationship to create experiences that change not only how you think, but how you feel and live.

Explore my approach

We change through experience.

Our bodies and nervous systems learn through experience—mostly below conscious awareness. Understanding is important, but it isn’t enough. Lasting change comes from new, embodied experiences.

We grow through relationships.

Our deepest wounds usually happen in relationship, and so does our deepest healing. Connection is the medium through which we become more fully ourselves.
