My name is Eric Carlson and I am the founder and director of Brainwise Solutions LLC, an innovative practice that offers counseling, mindfulness groups, plant medicine integration counseling, meditation products, retreats and organizational training and consultation. My 30 plus years as a therapist , college professor, and trainer have taught me that the decision to seek therapy is not an easy one and difficulty in overcoming past wounds is rarely related to lack of effort. My compassionate and caring philosophy combined with best practice multi-modal therapeutic approaches allows me to help a wide variety of people.
I specialize in treating adults with a wide range of issues who are frustrated with their lack of progress in traditional therapy. I offer individual, group therapy and retreats that integrate multiple therapeutic modalities including: mindfulness, bioenergetics, Reiki, expressive arts, audiovisual entrainment, aromotherapy, and breathwork.
I offer sliding fees and accept insurance payments for a variety of plans. Please check with your insurance plan to verify coverage. I prefer that you e-mail me with a description of your current issues along with contact information so I can respond promptly. I am currently offering telemed, in person retreats, and intensive in person bodywork sessions.
