Introduction

Somatic Experiencing (SE) therapy for high-achieving California adults in high-responsibility roles (clinicians, education leaders, healthcare, tech)—especially high-masking autistic/AuDHD clients—who look “fine” but feel depleted: burnout, panic/anxiety, trauma activation, dissociation, chronic bracing. I’m Setareh Azar Jinn (she/her), LMFT 104844, SEP. Somatic + relational, confidential, steady, and clinically precise—built for people who hold a lot, internally and externally: we track sensation, emotion, impulses, and boundaries so your nervous system can shift from survival mode into steadiness, clarity, choice, and connection. Rooted in disability justice and healing justice, with a commitment to QTBIPOC liberation. Queer/trans-affirming and neurodivergent-affirming; affirming of poly/ENM + kink/BDSM communities. Culture, race, ancestry, and power are treated as clinically relevant—not peripheral. You don’t need to translate yourself here. In-person therapy in Sebastopol (Sonoma County) and teletherapy across California. Free 15-minute video consult to explore fit. Weekly depth work. Fee: $200/session (couples $220). Primarily private pay; credentialed only with Optum. Superbills available for possible out-of-network reimbursement when applicable (you verify benefits).
