It takes courage to enter into therapy and be vulnerable with someone you do not know. Therapy should be a sacred place to talk about the things that are difficult to talk about and feel emotions that are difficult to feel. You want to know that you are safe to let go of your armor and be seen and heard without judgement.
I am a Psychotherapist with 20+ years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families. One of my specialties is working with anxiety/trauma. I am a Level 2 trained Brainspotting therapist and have taken many specialty Brainspotting trainings as well. I use Brainspotting as my primary approach to these challenges.
Brainspotting is one of the few techniques that effectively addresses the root cause of psychological stress and emotional trauma. The goal of brainspotting is to bypass conscious thinking to access where trauma is stored in the deeper, subconscious emotional and body-based parts of the brain to facilitate healing. Traumatic energy can be released from the nervous system during a Brainspotting session and seems to activate the body’s natural ability to heal itself from trauma and calm anxiety. Clients report having deeper and more profound releases with Brainspotting as compared to traditional therapies.
I also continue to educate myself in neuroscience and have done additional training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems, and Compassionate Inquiry. All effective approaches to reduce anxiety and trauma symptoms.
If you would like to find out more about how Brainspotting could be beneficial for you, feel free to contact me. I offer a 20-minute phone consultation and will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
