David Juelfs

Psychological Associate

Feel deeply. Struggle less. Love fully.
Feel at home in your body and at ease in your relationships.

For over 25 years, I’ve supported people through relationship challenges, grief, trauma, and profound personal transformation. Rooted in spiritual care, I now bring extensive training and experience in depth and somatic psychotherapy. I offer a steady, compassionate presence to the healing process, working most often with developmental, sexual, and spiritual trauma, adult survivors of childhood abuse, and couples seeking deeper, more resilient connection.

As a doctoral student in clinical psychology at Pacifica Graduate Institute, my research explores physiological synchrony and how this deep embodied attunement supports healing in both individual and group therapy settings.

You don’t have to face the hard stuff alone. Together, we’ll walk the path toward healing and wholeness.
