Therapy for people who don’t fit the mold.
Somatic, trauma-informed virtual therapy for artists and multi-passionates in Los Angeles and throughout California, including LGBTQ+, poly, and kink communities.
I am currently accepting new clients.
What Might Bring You to Somatic Therapy
"Everyone assumes I'm thriving, but inside I feel numb, depleted, and disconnected from the person I used to be."
"I keep replaying what happened in that church, group, job, or relationship. It's made me doubt my own perception, and I still second-guess things I once knew to be true about myself."
"I'm exhausted from performing a version of myself just to be understood. Being highly sensitive, neurodivergent, or endlessly curious means I'm always translating myself for other people, and I'm tired of it."
"I'm still figuring out what it means to be queer, trans, or nonbinary in a world built on binaries. I don't want to shrink myself to be understood, I want care that actually affirms who I am."
"I need a therapist who sees how I love and connect as valid, not something to fix. Non-monogamy or kink isn't my problem, it's part of how I'm built."
"I want a therapist who understands the reality of a creative life: the instability, the identity tied to the work, the exhaustion of being seen as 'just a hobby.' Someone who's lived it as a working artist, not just studied it."
You Do Not Need to Simplify Yourself Here
This practice is for multi-hyphenates, multi-passionate people, and anyone whose life, identity, or relationships feel too layered, nonlinear, or complex for conventional therapy spaces.
My specialties:
Somatic therapy for high-achieving professionals and entrepreneurs — for burnout, overwork, transitions, and success that no longer feels sustainable.
Healing from institutional and religious trauma — for deconstruction, cult recovery, spiritual abuse, and rebuilding inner authority.
Therapy for highly sensitive, neurodivergent, and creative adults — for overwhelm, masking, unmasking, creative blocks, and honoring how you’re wired.
Affirming therapy for LGBTQIA+ and gender-diverse adults — for identity, belonging, gender affirming care, and living more fully as yourself.
Affirming therapy for kink, polyamory, and non-monogamy — for desire, communication, shame reduction, and non-pathologizing support.
Meet Edgar Fabián Frías, LMFT
Hello, my name is Edgar and I am a Latinx & Wixárika, queer, nonbinary therapist, artist, and multi-passionate based in Los Angeles.
I know what it is to move through institutions and systems that were never designed for us, and I know how exhausting it is to be told you are “too much” when you are actually carrying precision, sensitivity, and deep knowing.
My practice integrates somatic therapy, Hakomi, Parts Work, mindfulness, and creative and spiritual frameworks that honor your body, your complexity, and your lived experience.
You do not have to choose between being taken seriously and being fully yourself here.
How Somatic Therapy Can Help
Together, we slow down enough for your shoulders to drop, your breath to reach the bottom of your lungs, your body to finally exhale what it learned to hold in.
From this space, we can offer care and support to the tight jaw behind "I'm fine," the apology before you've finished a sentence, the room scanned before you let yourself relax in it.
With curiosity and compassion, we can explore the well-worn patterns that exist underneath the burnout, hyper-vigilance, people-pleasing, masking, self-doubt, perfectionism, and disconnection.
Through this work, you can:
Recover from burnout and high-functioning overdrive.
Navigate queerness, gender, identity, and belonging with more steadiness and self-trust.
Honor your neurodivergence and sensitivity instead of treating them like problems to fix.
Build relationships with clearer boundaries, better communication, and less shame.
Rebuild trust in yourself after religious, cult, institutional, or relational harm.
Integrate creativity, spirituality, and intuition into your healing without leaving essential parts of yourself at the door.
What Becomes Possible in Somatic Therapy
This is what I've seen happen when clients stop waiting and start doing the work.
You stop wondering whether you're "too much," and start recognizing your sensitivity, queerness, neurodivergence, and desires as sources of power, not problems to manage.
You understand where your patterns came from and what they once protected you from, so old wounds can finally start to heal. Instead of bracing for the past, you arrive in the present, curious and even excited about the future.
Your body feels less tense and more grounded. You can rest, choose, and connect without constant self-surveillance, and life starts to hold more freedom and possibility than you thought was available to you.
You make aligned decisions about work, relationships, and your creative life, with the internal support to actually follow through. Choice becomes real. Connection deepens.
From there, clients go after dreams they'd shelved, take risks they wouldn't have dared before, and build lives with real complexity and meaning. I'm continually in awe of how far people travel once they have the space to become fully who they are.
What to Expect in Our Work Together
How We Begin: Your First Free Consultation
Book a free 15-minute consultation so we can talk about what you're navigating and whether this feels like the right fit. If it is, I'll send over intake paperwork and get you scheduled for our first session.
From there, we start weekly virtual sessions anywhere in California. Therapy is online, consistent, and built to work with real life, creative schedules, and nontraditional rhythms.
New to therapy? Welcome. You don't need to know how to "do" this, we'll find the rhythm together.
Coming from another therapist? Also common, and welcome. Tell me what worked and what didn't, and we'll build from where you actually are, not from zero.
Already working with a psychiatrist, psychic, astrologer, energy worker, hypnotist, or other healer? I integrate around what you already have, not instead of it.
