San Juan Somatic Therapy - Durango, Colorado

Richard Malcolm

I have known Aaron Belson as a colleague and friend for over a decade. He is a warm, gentle, playful and grounded person, who works from a place of genuine curiosity and caring. Aaron has significant experience in the field, and has sought out excellent training opportunities since opening his private practice, demonstrating integrity and a desire to serve his clients to the best of his ability. I would recommend him as a therapist for anyone interested in healing their trauma and creating sustainable change in their lives.

Aaron brings a deep capacity to witness and to validate the human journey. He is able to hold complexity and to be with all that comes through the door. I highly recommend working with Aaron as he can be trusted to hold authentic space and will point you in the right direction even if it means referring out. He truly embodies what it means to be a client-centered clinician and I cannot recommend him enough!

Aaron is a greatly skilled somatic therapist, offering support for his clients' expansion and post-traumatic growth. He leads with acceptance and a full-hearted presence. His willingness to commit to his own growth as a therapist is notable--and he shows this same commitment to his clients. Anyone working with him can count on a deep sense of being really met and supported into their own growth path.

Aside from being a genuine and lovely human being, Aaron Belson is a licensed clinical social worker and the owner of San Juan Somatic Therapy in Durango, Colorado. Aaron specializes in Post-Traumatic Growth Somatic Therapy and Nature-Based Therapy for adults. I’ve known Aaron for almost 10 years, and had the pleasure of overlapping with him in the professional sphere in wilderness therapy and later in our graduate internship. Aaron’s kindness, authenticity, and open-heartedness is a gift to those he works with. If you’re looking for a body-centered therapist to support you in healing and finding meaning, I would highly recommend Aaron Belson and San Juan Somatic Therapy.

Aaron is a deeply compassionate human being, and a naturally-gifted, widely-experienced therapist.

In co-facilitation with Aaron, I’ve witnessed his broad capacity for meeting the client, followed by his immense holding in masterfully attuned and intuitive support.

He is highly skilled, adept, and insightful. He is kind and sincere. He is warm and friendly; he’s easy like Sunday morning.

All walks and all ages feel seen in Aaron’s presence. If you want to know yourself, then you’ll want to sit down with Aaron.
