Betsy is trained in Internal Family Systems Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Somatic therapies. She enjoys helping clients reduce physical and emotional stress, release old burdens, guilt and shame, improve self-esteem and vitality, and heal from old trauma. She finds these therapies to be transformative, healing, and life changing. With more than thirty years' experience practicing psychotherapy, Betsy holds a master's degree in counseling psychology, Keene, NH and a bachelor's degree in Transpersonal Psychology, Burlington College, Vermont.
Betsy specializes in trauma therapies. These therapies can be effective in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, codependency and a range of other issues. In these therapies, clients heal parts of themselves that have burdened them for many years or a lifetime. They therapeutically shift their beliefs and narratives about themselves and their lives.
Betsy's style is warm, compassionate, calm, confident, clear, and curious. She integrates spirituality into her work. She teaches creative visualization, the law of attraction, and mindfulness. Please feel free to contact her to schedule a session or a free fifteen-minute phone consultation.
