This month, Joy Matalon began offering CranioSacral Therapy (CST) in Ossining and Garrison, in addition to The Center for Health and Healing in Mount Kisco. She and her fellow practitioners at the Ossining location will host a free networking gala from 5 to 8 p.m., March 20, for professionals offering local education or therapeutic services for children and adults.

“I’ve joined a wonderful group of therapists and learning specialists in Ossining,” Matalon says. “I’m very excited to work in this new practice that offers dialectical behavior therapy, academic support, executive functioning coaching, psychological testing and therapy for children and adults. It’s exciting that we can collaborate together, offering bodywork to clients to optimize their mind-body integration.”

Certified in CST through The Great River CranioSacral Institute, Matalon has been a licensed massage therapist in New York State for more than 30 years.

“I specialize in helping children and adults develop increased awareness of the sensations in their body as a path to releasing trauma and stress and developing skills to focus in the present moment,” she says. “Working with like-minded professionals allows me to take a team approach to my clients’ well being, enhancing their ability to help integrate the healing in all aspects of their lives.”

She says the networking event is an opportunity for professionals to see her new healing space and meet experienced therapists and academic coaches who integrate mindfulness and multisensory healing in their practice.

 Event location: 100 Executive Blvd., Ste. 203, Ossining, NY. For more info, call 914.519.8138 or visit JOY MATALON.
