SomaSoul Therapy
By deepening your capacity to truly listen to your physical and emotional body, you gain access to more calm, joy, and vitality.
Within the safe and compassionate container of our sessions, we will explore the painful or difficult emotions and stress reactions that are stored in your body, and learn how to tend to, care for, and gain wisdom from your body’s emotional experience.
The focus shifts from your thoughts (that can get caught in worry, obsession, strategizing, and overthinking) to discovering unmet needs, creating healthy boundaries, and leaning into more intimacy with yourself, others, and Hashem.

Therapeutic Touch (For In-Person Clients)
Relational touch (as taught by Shirley Dvir) is a touch that centers on the relationship between therapist and client. It is a safe, ethical, embodied, non-doing type of touch within psychotherapy. Ongoing verbal and nonverbal consent is essential and of the utmost importance. This form of hands-on touch happens in conjunction with ongoing verbal exchange to support the unfolding emotional process. Using relational touch, we can directly contact the psychology that lives in your physiology. I’m able to let you know, somatically, that I am here.
​
Touch is done while the client is fully clothed, and primarily for the comfort of the therapist, a massage table is typically used.
Heart-to-Heart Connections
In a matter of minutes, Malka Sima makes space for a deep place of discomfort that lives within me. Her presence and guidance facilitate me to move through it, to uncover a greater more expansive wisdom within myself that can both hold the pain and transform it and me at the same time. I’ve never experienced healing like this before and I am ever so grateful for it.
