Michele L. Kong

In-person somatic therapy sessions in Manhattan use present-moment awareness to explore and resolve patterns in the body. Michele L. Kong is a holistic and somatic psychotherapist offering individualized support to adults. Her practice includes holistic therapy, trauma recovery, therapeutic touch for trauma recovery, and attachment-focused EMDR. The work may address anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, relationship concerns, and childhood or intergenerational trauma. Kong tailors therapy for immigrants and refugees, BIPOC and LGBTQ+ clients, multicultural and multilingual individuals, and others navigating intersecting identities and experiences. Her approach draws on lived experience as an Asian American woman raised by immigrants, with attention to culture, gender, class, and racial dynamics. Sessions are intended for people seeking body-based, trauma-informed support alongside ongoing reflection and learning.
