Specialties

Breathe. Somatic Therapies specializes in using the body and breath as the central vehicle for healing and awakening. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Nationally Certified Massage Therapist and Bodywork Practitioner, and a Certified Yoga Teacher, I offer different modalities for different people.

As an MFT, I specialize in somatic/​body-​oriented psychotherapy. I use experiential techniques rooted in eastern wisdom traditions to develop vital inner resources designed to stabilize, soothe, and strengthen. In addition to my extensive experience working with depression and anxiety, I also work with issues such as grief, body issues, stress management, anger, and trauma resolution.

As a CMT, I specialize in working therapeutically with your specific needs in mind. I combine deep tissue massage, NMT, and orthopedic techniques to help bring your body back to life.

Come by Yoga Works Larkspur Landing for a mindful alignment based yoga class. Private yoga sessions also available.

History

Established in 2006.

Jonathan Pofsky, MFT, CMT

Breathe. Somatic Therapies officially took form in 2006 when I decided I needed to bring together the various modalities under one roof. I began doing massage in 1997 and after a year of practice, moved to the Bay Area to get my Master’s in Somatic Psychology from CIIS. In 2004, after ten years of yoga practice, I began teaching public and private classes in Marin County. Upon receiving my license as an MFT in 2006, I formed Breathe. Somatic Therapies. Since then, I have had the pleasure of working with hundreds of clients who have come to see me with their own unique issues, whether physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual. With the breath and body as the central vehicle for healing and awakening, I am constantly amazed both at how unique we are and how much, as humans, we share.
