Healing for Women with Anxiety and Burnout
Virtual somatic therapy for women who have already put in the work… and still feel stuck. Gina DeMasi is a Licensed Therapist, Registered Yoga Instructor, Sound Healer, and Reiki master.
If you are a woman looking for a therapist who works with your nervous system, not just your thoughts, you’re in the right place. Gigi offers virtual therapy in California and Virginia, virtual healing services for anyone in the world, and in-person private sessions.
Somatic Therapy and Healing for High-Functioning Women
You’re in the right place if…
You show up for everyone and can’t remember the last time someone asked what you needed.
You’ve been to therapy before. It helped, but something still didn’t shift.
You know exactly where your anxiety comes from and your body still braces anyway.
You’ve been the strong one for so long that you’ve started to wonder if that’s just who you are now.
Why Understanding Your Patterns Isn’t Enough to Change Them
Here's something nobody tells you about anxiety: you cannot think your way out of it. You can understand every single pattern you have, trace it back to exactly where it came from, and your nervous system will still fire the same way it always has.
Somatic therapy works at the level where the pattern actually lives. Not in the story you tell about it, but in the body where it's stored. That's what makes it different from traditional talk therapy, and that's why people who have "already tried therapy" often find that somatic therapy helps heal the root.
Through the lens of neuroplasticity, we know the nervous system is not fixed, it is constantly adapting based on lived experience. Somatic practices gently interrupt old survival patterns and create new pathways of safety in the body, allowing your brain and nervous system to learn a different response over time, not through forcing it, but through felt experience.

What People Say About Working with Gigi
Meet Gigi DeMasi, LCSW, Sound Healer, and Founder of Therapy with Gigi
I work with women who are carrying more than they let on.
A lot of the people who find me have already put in the work. They’ve done the therapy, read the books, built something that looks good from the outside. And they’re still running on fumes in a way they can’t quite explain to anyone around them.
I’m a licensed therapist with ten years of experience in somatic and trauma-informed work. I’m also a sound healer, a yoga instructor, and a Reiki master. I believe that healing happens in the body, in relationship, and in community, not just in a fifty-minute session once a week.
