Along with traditional "talk therapy" I utilize Brainspotting, a relational and neurobiological approach that targets stubborn memories and emotions.
Welcome! I am a psychotherapist with over 30 years of experience working with individuals, couples and families. Just about all of us hit some bumps on the road as we journey through this wonderful adventure called life and I consider it my personal privilege to join with you as you navigate those bumps. I see each person as a unique individual (not a diagnosis!) and believe that YOU are ultimately the expert on YOU. I am a compassionate, non-judgmental listener who can help you see your dilemmas in new ways that generate hope and creative solutions that work for YOU.

Brainspotting Therapists

How does brainspotting work?

Brainspotting works by using eye positioning to identify and process traumatic memories so that a client is better able to move forward and live with less fear. The theory behind brainspotting is that by identifying where a person looks when thinking of traumatic memories, a therapist will be able to guide them to focus on that spot and work with the client to get them out of the “fight, flight, freeze” response associated with the traumatic memory.

Is brainspotting an evidence-based therapy?

Brainspotting is a theory-based alternative therapy. It is one of the newest forms of treatment, so very little research has been completed that examines the mechanism by which it works. The theory behind brainspotting is that eye position can be linked to areas of the brain that store and process memory.

How effective is brainspotting?

Because it is such a new treatment, the effectiveness of brainspotting cannot be quantified. Some people have found it to be effective on its own, or in conjunction with other types of therapy. It is considered an alternative therapy, and it is popular with people for whom more traditional therapies have proven ineffective.

How long does brainspotting take to work?

A typical brainspotting session will last between 60 to 90 minutes. There is no required number of sessions needed to complete brainspotting therapy, but in many cases it is delivered over the course of about six sessions. Clients are encouraged to rate their level of distress prior to a session and again following a session, and to track progress.
