Mara Levy - Rainbow Spring Wellness

Mara Levy - Rainbow Spring Wellness Integrative occupational therapy blending blending bodywork and somatic therapy so you can do more of what matters. What is integrative occupational therapy?

I’m an integrative occupational therapist, a certified lymphedema specialist, and a somatic experiencing practitioner. I work with body, mind, spirit, identity, roles, community, and everything else that makes us human. My goal is to help you do the things you care about, so you can thrive as well as survive. I call what I’m doing “integrative” because I use a unique combination of treatment approaches to meet a wide range of goals. Treatment approaches include
- somatic experiencing
- lymphatic drainage massage
- craniosacral therapy
- neurolymphatic drainage
- visceral manipulation
- myofascial release
- neuroaffirming sensory regulation
- interoception education I offer trauma-informed care for all of who you are - fat positive and HAES-aligned, q***r and trans celebrating, neurodiversity affirming, antiracist, kink and polyamory friendly, pagan welcoming, and liberation oriented.

Being able to exhale and unclench is so important - it's worth it to me to take some risks in order to prioritize it. I hope you have a place like that in your life.

is one of my top values, and it's why I do this work. More healed nervous systems in the world can make even more healed nervous systems - and when we have a regulated nervous system we have more capacity to be the change we want to see in the world.

Free event coming up!

I'm joining the Q***r Mental Health Initiative in offering free mental health resources to the q***r community this year. On July 21 I'm hosting "Trusting our q***r bodies: Exploring safety somatically" online from 7-8pm EDT.

Having a body is complicated. Trauma, dysphoria, and societal pressures can make having a body even more complicated for q***r folks. Let’s talk about building a trusting relationship with our bodies, expanding our ability to feel safe and at home in our bodies. Come join this virtual discussion and resource building opportunity!

RSVP on eventbrite to join the discussion - link in first comment.

Want to hear me talk about something cool? I'm super excited to be talking about neuro-lymphatics next week with the Smith Center and Hope Connections for Cancer.

Neuro-lymphatics have been one of my favorite learning enthusiasms since I took a course on a last-minute impulse last August. Since then I've been doing a deep dive into the research that's coming out about how the neuro-lymphatic system affects our thinking, aging, so many different disease processes, and our overall wellness. I'm excited to start sharing this exciting info with folks!

Every OT has heard the myth that occupational therapy is about jobs. That's not completely untrue, but paying work is only a tiny part of what we're about. We want to see you doing things that matter. That might be participating in capitalism, or it might be something gloriously unproductive. You decide what matters - we help you do it.

Happy OT month! We're here to help you do the things that matter to you. Whatever's making it harder for you to live your best life, let's figure out a way to address it. We might help you heal, we may help you find ways to adapt how you do things, or we might look at how the world around you can support you better. If you want to figure out how to live better, try talking to an OT!

Here's the summary of what I do at Rainbow Spring Wellness! I'm an occupational therapist, somatic experiencing practitioner, and certified lymphatic therapist blending body-based mental health care and trauma-informed bodywork for mind-body healing that's q***r-centric, fat-positive, neurodiversity-affirming, and liberation-oriented.

Body-based mental health care can include somatic experiencing, learning to listen to your body, and building executive function skills for people of all neurotypes.

Bodywork can include lymphatic drainage massage, neuro-lymphatic drainage, and craniosacral therapy to bring relief for physical symptoms or release stuck trauma.

Come and see me for a free curiosity call or a full visit in downtown Silver Spring MD or online in DC, MD, and VA.
