Riley’s approach to therapy is rooted in attunement and empathy. She moves with clients, matching their rhythm, energy, and emotion to create a sense of safety and resonance.

In her sessions, clients often share that they “feel seen without needing to explain.”
That’s the quiet, transformative magic of embodied therapy — healing through movement, connection, and being truly witnessed. 🤍

Curious about how embodied therapy can help you feel more seen and understood? Contact us to learn more about Riley’s work.

When life pulls us in too many directions, we can lose touch with our authentic selves — the grounded, creative part of us that feels most real.

Through Dance/Movement Therapy, Riley invites clients to reconnect with that inner truth.
Each session becomes a space to listen to the body’s cues and move in ways that feel aligned, expressive, and alive.

Movement becomes more than motion — it becomes a compass guiding you home to yourself. 🌿

When the mind, body, and spirit move in harmony, we begin to feel whole again.

Riley’s work invites clients to rediscover balance through gentle, embodied awareness — reconnecting to the parts of themselves that have been ignored or silenced.

Through movement, grounding, and mindful exploration, you can begin to experience life with more ease, flow, and authenticity.

Your body holds your story — every joy, every ache, every moment you’ve endured and overcome.

Through Dance/Movement Therapy, Riley helps clients gently uncover and rewrite these embodied stories. Each gesture, breath, or stillness becomes a way to reclaim agency and reconnect with your truth.

Healing isn’t about erasing the past — it’s about integrating it and allowing movement to bring meaning and release.

Dance/Movement Therapy (DMT) isn’t about performance — it’s about connection.

It’s a practice that helps you express what words can’t, release stored tension, and reconnect with your inner rhythm. Through guided movement and reflection, clients discover how their bodies hold emotion, memory, and resilience.

Riley uses DMT to help people move from self-judgment to self-compassion — one embodied breath at a time.

Growth doesn’t always happen in a straight line — sometimes, it happens through stillness, flow, or even gentle curiosity.

Riley helps clients explore personal growth through movement-based therapy, guiding them to notice how emotions, tension, and energy live in the body. In this process, new insights and balance naturally emerge.

Her sessions are collaborative and nurturing — a space to rediscover safety, presence, and self-trust through mindful motion.

🌿 Meet Riley at Mind Body Connections and learn how movement can support your healing journey.

Meet Riley Cornacchini, R-DMT, a Dance/Movement Therapist passionate about helping people reconnect with their inner wisdom through the body.

Riley believes that healing isn’t just something we think about — it’s something we feel and move through. Her sessions invite you to slow down, listen inward, and explore how your body carries emotion, story, and possibility.

With curiosity and compassion, she supports clients in discovering movement as a tool for emotional regulation, self-understanding, and authentic expression.

Your body has wisdom even if you’ve been taught to ignore it.

Often, symptoms like anxiety, tension, or exhaustion aren’t random. They’re signals from your body-mind system, letting you know that something deeper needs care. In therapy, we help clients slow down, listen, and reconnect with this inner wisdom.

🌿 When you trust your body-mind wisdom:
You can release old pain that isn’t serving you.
You begin to see patterns you didn’t realize were shaping your life.
You open space for new, healthier ways of being.

Healing isn’t about forcing yourself into change—it’s about honoring the wisdom already inside you.
✨ Ara specializes in helping clients access this deeper knowing through Internal Family Systems and somatic therapy.
