Justine (formerly Justine Polevoy) is a gifted Somatic Psychotherapist with nearly 30 years of experience. She integrates Somatic Psychotherapy that is both relational & resilience focused, within a trauma informed framework.

​

Justine’s work honors the full spectrum of human diversity, supporting clients across neurodivergent and neurotypical experiences, as well as queer, trans, and straight-identifying individuals and couples. She sees neurodiversity, queerness, gender expansiveness, and relationship diversity—including kink, polyamory, and non-monogamy—as valid, vital expressions of being. Her practice affirms the intelligence of the body, the wisdom of lived experience, and each person's capacity for healing and transformation.

​

Justine is herself neurodivergent, and brings a neurodiverse-affirming, direct, and collaborative presence. She works with individuals and couples—including those exploring secure attachment, polysecure relationships, and alternative relational structures—within a field of care that centers justice, liberation, and embodied wholeness.

Drawing on Somatic Resourcing, Ayurvedic wisdom, and deep knowledge about growing nervous system regulation, she supports clients in reconnecting with their inner knowing and the rhythms of the natural world.

​

She has taught at California Institute of Integral Studies and John F. Kennedy University, and served as a trainer for the Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute and the Psycho-Physical Therapy Institute.

Her practice, Embodied Psychotherapy, is rooted in attachment theory, parts work, trauma recovery, and a deep respect for intersectionality. She supports clients in cultivating resilience, connection, and meaningful change across all dimensions of identity and experience.
