Feel Lighter
Somatic & Integrative Psychotherapy
Virtual Therapy for Women of Color across Massachusetts to reconnect with your body, clarity, and inner steadiness
I’m grateful you’ve landed here
I support women of color, immigrants, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and high-achieving adults who feel stuck in patterns talk therapy hasn’t fully shifted — and who are ready for deeper, embodied change.
Chronic stress, burnout, anxiety, perfectionism, and trauma live in the body.
Together, we clear what’s been held so you can feel;
steadier lighter more connected
Using Brainspotting, a gentle body-based therapy, we access what your nervous system has been holding — so you can feel more like yourself again.
You don’t have to carry this alone.
When you’re ready, we can take the next step, Together.
Meet Your Therapist
Hi, I’m Yoko.
You’re invited to arrive just as you are.
I’m a Massachusetts-based clinical social worker and first-generation Asian American therapist. My pronouns are she/her/they. My work is trauma-informed and somatic, grounded in Brainspotting and supported by parts-work, mindfulness, and relational care — attending to both your inner world and your nervous system.
My practice centers women of color and those with cross-cultural identities. I also welcome anyone who has felt unseen, overwhelmed, disconnected, or shaped by marginalization.
There’s no need to perform here. We move at the pace your system is ready for.
My intention is to offer a grounded, trauma-informed space where the body is honored as a source of wisdom—supporting nervous system regulation and integration, and allowing change to unfold in service of clarity, ease, and liberation.
As Linda Thai, a Trauma-therapist, reminds us,
“Your body is the keeper of your lived experience — and also the doorway to your liberation”
