About

Allison Arkfeld, LMFT #118095, operates The Cove Therapy in Carlsbad Village at 1241 Carlsbad Village Drive, an LGBTQ+-owned and women-owned practice specializing in complex trauma and PTSD. Advanced training in Somatic Psychotherapy through The Body Knows informs body-based processing work that shares a nervous-system focus with integrative practices such as Red Lotus Wellness Center in the area. Licensed by the California Board of Behavioral Sciences since May 2018, she treats childhood sexual abuse survivors through an eight-week structured group protocol limited to six participants per cohort. Individual sessions address developmental trauma, adult ADHD, and identity-related concerns for LGBTQ+ clients, with medication-management referrals coordinated through psychiatric providers including Mindpath Health Psychiatrists & Therapists in Carlsbad. The somatic psychotherapy framework integrates Jungian, psychoanalytic, and transpersonal modalities to address the physiological imprint of chronic relational trauma stored in the body's muscular and fascial systems.
