Jessica Van der Merwe, LMHC, LPC, Approved Brainspotting Consultant
I am an approved Brainspotting Consultant and therapist with a specialization in complex attachment trauma, CPTSD/PTSD,dissociative disorders, and Adult Children of Alcoholics and Dysfunctional Families. I also specialize in neurodivergent folks with trauma histories. I am certified in Trauma Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST), which integrates Internal Family Systems/parts work and Sensorimotor psychotherapy. I often integrate parts work/TIST with Brainspotting therapy for trauma processing.
As an ADHDer and Adult child of a dysfunctional family, I know healing is a linear process. There is always an option for healing and change, we sometimes just need help finding it. That is why I do this work. I hope you join me.
I am an LMHC in Washington and LPC in Oregon in private practice in Portland, OR. I offer in-person and video sessions for teens, adults, and couples.
I offer professional supervision and certification in Brainspotting for therapists and trauma specialists.
