We find ourselves traveling down the same roads all the time, same route to work, school, and even family and friends' houses. Sometimes we become so used to the way we are living that change is often difficult to achieve. I believe this is because we are stuck in ways of thinking because we have done it for as long as we can remember. "That's just the way I am." If you are looking to find a new way of doing things because you are unsatisfied or stuck in a rut, I would love to help you navigate change.

This Group EMDR protocol, G-TEP, can help to build resiliency, and heal trauma, in those who experience trauma symptoms and triggers. The goal of this group is to reduce the emotional distress, from past or recent events, that surround these triggers and symptoms within a gentle and supportive group setting. It is great for alleviating symptoms of anxiety, depression, and even irritability. Research has shown that the use of G-TEP, and bilateral stimulation (BLS), can decrease the onset of PTSD, depression, anxiety, substance use, relationship and health issues that can follow trauma

We have all been through things in life, and some items can be challenging to heal or talk about. Those are normal and validating feelings, but sometimes we need someone to talk to. To help navigate and conceptualize these experiences and gain coping skills. Communicating and healthily processing these emotions can be difficult, depending on our intersectional identities, to do out of fear of being stigmatized. That is why I am passionate about providing a safe space. My goal as a therapist is to help clients nourish their brains in practices that are best for them.

Are you searching for a place to belong, to be heard and find healing? Mariposa Counseling was founded in 2022 by Alaina Smith. Mariposa is the Spanish word for butterfly, and it was chosen to symbolize the transformation that butterflies represent. Humans go through our own transformative journeys, and while not as obvious as a caterpillar to butterfly, it has potential to be just as impressive and wondrous. We believe every individual is worthy of dignity and respect and treat them as such.

Let's Build Hope! I strive to create a validating, non-judgmental environment to teach you skills to manage anxiety, overwhelming emotions, improve relationships, and modify behaviors. You can develop the healthy life you desire. Humans experience emotions! Sometimes we may think there is a right way and a wrong way to feel and distress means, we are feeling the wrong way. That is a ton of pressure! Sometimes, our emotions become distressing. Sometimes we worry. Few are taught to manage emotions and anxiety effectively and distress can lead to self-blame, defeated feelings, strained relationships, self-harm, and more. I can help!
Members of the group will identify their personal concerns, if they are experiencing grief related to adjusting to their loved one's identity, and what is needed to help them come to a more supportive relationship. This group will provide a safe place to openly talk about each person's thoughts and feelings, which may be inappropriate to say to their loved one. Cost: $10 per person.
