Individual Therapy
Individual Empowerment
At Self Cycle, individual sessions provide a space for personal reflection and growth. You have the freedom to explore your inner landscape at your own pace, guided by our facilitator. These sessions are deeply personal and build over time. Unlike traditional 50 minute sessions, these sessions are 90 minutes long and have a heavy physical component.
Sessions are available both in-person and remote. Marcia’s office in Northampton, MA offers a bike, treadmill, and elliptical for client use. There’s also ample floor space available for other movements, including the use of weights.
Flexible Pathways to Healing:
Choose the path that resonates with you. Whether you prefer the camaraderie of a group setting or Healing Circle, the focused attention of individual therapy, or taking your reflections to your own therapist, Self Cycle adapts to your preferences.
What to Expect
Sessions are 90 minutes long. The first portion of the session will work on noticing and witnessing what parts get activated during movement and guided prompts without exploring them.
During the first part of the session, you’ll engage in a guided moving-meditation. This movement triggers the benefits of bilateral stimulation. Offered remote or in-person, Marcia can move in tandem with you for a mirrored experience, or allow you the full space to move independently.
As you move, you will settle into your body and be called to notice individual parts. This somatic process utilizes many components of an IFS framework and pays particular mind to embodied feelings. This approach is designed to ease you into deep work as you explore your protectors, allowing you to better approach what’s lying underneath. The 90 minute session gives the benefit of time as we move through these different parts.
After, the session will pivot to a more traditional IFS session where you can fully access your system and deeply work through what has come up.
If you are seeking a more traditional 50 minute session, you can reach out to Marcia via Psychology Today.
Cost
Private sessions are $250 a session. Marcia is currently not accepting insurance for Self Cycle, but if needed, alternative payment arrangements can be made on a social justice sliding scale model. While every client is different, most meet weekly. Meeting schedules can be determined based on your therapeutic needs.
