Brainspotting Therapists in Ayer, MA

Taking steps towards seeking support can be overwhelming yet empowering. As your therapist, I provide empathetic listening while using a person-centered, holistic approach to help create a happier life. I work with people from adolescence through adulthood, and my specialties include trauma, relationships, and perinatal health. My goal in working together is to create a space where you can explore and process areas of your life in a safe, non-judgmental way. We will explore a number of evidenced-based techniques to help address problematic thought patterns or behaviors in hopes to achieve a better quality of life!

Life provides each of us with many opportunities to grow and heal, often cleverly disguised as adversity. If your experiences have you feeling stuck or if you feel like you're not living as your authentic self then life is inviting you to change. We each have an innate ability to heal ourselves and I am honored to guide people on the path to rediscovering who they were meant to be.

Are you stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed? Are you dealing with chronic issues? Are you ready to make a change and feel better? Are you interested in learning practical tools to transform stress/trauma, reduce anxiety, and find more peace and calm? I take a holistic and integrative approach to helping my clients. I believe that talk therapy alone is not enough. I teach simple mind-body-energy techniques to help my clients feel more grounded, present, and calm. This sets the foundation for the deeper work of processing and releasing past traumas so you can reclaim your most authentic, free self and live your best life.

Many come to therapy knowing only that they are struggling to get things done, their relationships have become a source of stress rather than comfort, or they need help processing trauma, loss, or other painful experiences impacting their daily lives. Whatever your circumstances, I strive to help each person or family I work with achieve greater emotional, psychological, and social well-being, while also alleviating symptoms. I use the power of storytelling and understand that each person I work with has many, important stories to tell. I also value and work with each person's nervous system in the healing process.
