TEAM BRAG! Looking for support this holiday season? Aura is a fantastic clinician and has the following areas of practice:

Aura LaBarre, MA, LCMHC

Aura is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) who offers eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), integrated with somatic awareness and parts-work.

Aura’s experience includes counseling individuals who are processing recent and generational trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, chronic health concerns, identity journeys, those seeking new ways of addressing cyclical relationship problems, and other manifestations of human struggles. Her compassionate counseling approach walks the path as a student of anti-racist, LGBTQIA+ affirming, culturally inclusive, body, age, and diverse ability honoring approaches.
Aura received her master’s degree from North Carolina Central University and continues training in somatic integration and processing as an EMDR practitioner with EMDRIA (EMDR International Association) approved consultants. She also weaves solution-focused therapeutic strategies and restorative practices that maintain a Person-Centered environment into the collaborative healing process. As a trainee of The Association of Partners of S*x Addicts Trauma Specialists (APSATS), she offers a multidimensional partner trauma model for those working through betrayal trauma.

With a background in ecology, Aura views healing within our larger systems - social, cultural, and environmental. Her somatic, body-in-mind therapeutic approach is grounded in the belief that trauma-informed care must account for the full complexity of human experience, honoring both the individual and the interconnected world in which we live. When not working, Aura finds solace in the tangle of her garden, walking in the woods with friends and family, and planning the next adventure.

What is Somatic Experiencing® (SE) and how is SIP Clinic NC different from other group psychotherapy practices?

Somatic Experiencing® (SE) is a body-centered approach to healing trauma and stress. It was developed by Dr. Peter Levine and is based on the understanding that trauma affects not just the mind, but the nervous system and body as well.

When we experience something overwhelming, our bodies naturally prepare to fight, flee, or freeze. If that response gets stuck or incomplete, we may continue to feel anxious, on edge, or disconnected—even long after the event has passed. Somatic Experiencing helps release that stored survival energy so the body and mind can return to balance.

Unlike talk therapy that focuses mainly on retelling experiences, SE gently guides attention to physical sensations such as breath, tension, or small shifts in comfort. By slowing down and working gradually, clients build resilience and learn to reconnect with a greater sense of safety and presence.

SE can be helpful for those recovering from accidents, abuse, medical procedures, or other stressful events, as well as for anyone experiencing anxiety, chronic stress, or trauma-related symptoms.

Through this process, many people discover more ease in their bodies, greater emotional regulation, and a stronger sense of vitality in everyday life.

When we start focusing on mental health and social determinates of health our physical health conditions will improve. ✨

90% of healthcare in the United States treats chronic conditions and lacks an understanding of how our mental and social well being can impact our physical health.

Somatic psychotherapy works with the mind body connection and our practitioners are invested your whole health.

If you can, spend time in nature and with friends and doing things today that make you feel most like yourself! Your body will thank you. ✨
