Welcome to
Sienna Mauve Therapy
Trauma-informed therapy for the body, mind, and spirit; specializing in Transpersonal, Internal Family Systems(IFS) and somatic work with women recovering from trauma.
A licensed marriage and family therapist in Santa Rosa, California, Sienna Mauve Therapy specializes in trauma recovery for women through IFS, somatic therapy, EMDR as well as spiritually-integrated approaches. Helping you heal in body, mind, spirit and heart.
I don't view trauma as a permanent flaw, but as a collection of interrupted survival responses. To move safely from survival mode into vibrant living, we must engage both body and mind, going deeper than just talking through what happened. Using EMDR, somatic therapy, and spiritually-integrated approaches I guide survivors to release trauma from their nervous systems and safely return home to themselves. I also work with individuals and the LGBTQ+ community, as well as relationships of all configurations, supporting people through anxiety, life transitions, and interpersonal pain.
The term "psychology" means the study of the soul, that non-material essence of a person which includes the identity, personality, intellect, emotions, and memories of a living being. As a therapist, this means learning and honoring the background of my clients is imperative — discovering what they hold sacred, their particular beliefs and history, and treating each client as a unique individual.
Sienna Mauve Therapy takes a whole-person approach:
Mind : Humanistic and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing(EMDR)therapies to help clients make sense of their personal narratives with clarity and insight.
Body : Somatic work releases experiences held in the body, restoring energy and presence through embodied awareness.
Spirit : Transpersonal therapy honors each client's spiritual background and explores the deeper "study of the soul," supporting genuine spiritual growth.
Heart : Creating an inclusive space to process emotional needs and "heart-centered" struggles — using Internal Family Systems (IFS) to work with emotional protectors and parts, alongside support for intergenerational trauma or complex family dynamics.
I hold a BFA from California Institute of the Arts and an MA in Counseling Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies. I'm licensed in California as a Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) through the Board of Behavioral Sciences, certified through the Upledger Institute in CranioSacral Therapy and Somato-Emotional Release, certified in Transcendent Leadership and Coaching, and EMDR-trained through an EMDRIA-approved program.
Together, we can move through unresolved experiences from your past or present, reclaim your vital energy, and open new possibilities in your life.
