Our pain is a calling to tend to ourselves.
So many of us have been taught that fixing, managing, and controlling will lead to feeling better.
There is another way.
Here, we heal through presence, through support, through compassion.We heal in relationship, with those who have walked the road and now choose to walk with us.
MARK NOONAN · LSW, MSW
Talk therapy is incredible for developing insight and skills.
Yet it does not give us access to heal our deep patterns
and core wounds, often imprinted during childhood.
Experiential modalities allow us to drop in,
past the cognitive mind, and address the mammalian brain. This is where our emotions, memories, sensations, traumas, and underlying beliefs reside.
In this work we bring to light
what has been existing under the surface for so long.
This allows for repair at the origin of the wound, as we would treat an infection with modern medicine.
It’s like cleansing your mind, body, and soul
from the inside out.
The Proof is in The Pudding
hear what the people have to say
If you want to experience deeper healing and wholeness, Mark is the person you want to work with. I’ve been in the human rights field for 20+ years and have a complex PTSD diagnosis, so I’ve been in and out of therapy for a long time and Mark is, without question, one of the most effective therapists I've ever worked with. A single session with him feels like the equivalent of months of talk therapy. As someone who pretty consistently lives in my head with difficulty dropping into my body, I grew so much in embodiment and somatic awareness in my time working with Mark and that accelerated my feeling more whole and connected overall. His use of trauma-focused experience-based modalities and meditation is both gentle and firm and he knows exactly when each is needed. As a woman, he was also the first male therapist I've ever felt truly safe with; it was like my nervous system quickly learned I could trust him, which was a big piece of what led to significant healing for me.
Even more than his skill, experience, or the tools he uses, what makes Mark different is his presence: unguarded, non-judgmental, deeply safe. Since working with him, I have used the tools I learned from him with my colleagues and other trauma survivors in over 35 countries and I have seen what he has to offer cross all sorts of cultures and backgrounds. I recommend him wholeheartedly, without reservation.

Mark is a highly skilled therapist that weaves together solid training, depth of clinical experience, and personal and professional integrity as he works with clients. His authenticity stands out when you're with him, giving you a sense of ease in however you're showing up. Mark meets each person exactly where they're at and guides them toward their goals with confidence, curiosity, and heart.
