Counseling and dance/movement therapy for individuals, couples, and families who are ready to feel more at home in themselves.
Notice
Navigate
Reconnect
Stress, grief, and old patterns don’t only live in our thoughts. They show up in our breath, our posture, and the way we hold ourselves around other people.
At Well Dancer, we combine evidence-based talk therapy with movement, so you can understand what you’re feeling and also experience a different way of carrying it. No dance experience is needed. Movement can be as simple as noticing your breath or shifting how you sit.
Build awareness of emotions and the body signals that come with them.
Learn practical tools to steady your nervous system when life gets loud.
Rebuild trust with yourself and the people who matter to you.
Dance/movement therapy is a recognized form of psychotherapy that uses movement to support emotional, social, and physical integration. Sessions are gentle and guided, and you’re always in control of how much or how little you move.
Every plan is shaped around you. We’ll talk through what fits during your free consultation.
Use movement to express what words can’t reach, release held tension, and build a steadier connection between body and mind.

Hi, I’m Dr. Beth Lucchi. I believe healing happens when we make room for the whole person: mind, body, and the relationships we live inside of.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and creative arts psychotherapist with more than 35 years of experience. My training includes a master’s degree in Social Work from Portland State University, a doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the California Graduate Institute, and a master’s degree in Dance/Movement Therapy from UCLA.
Movement-based work brings together my interests in creative expression and understanding ourselves more deeply. I offer space to explore feelings through both conversation and movement, especially when words alone feel hard to find.
I enjoy working with families, couples, individuals, and groups. I welcome people who are navigating change, strengthening relationships, or seeking a deeper connection with themselves and others.
