Brainspotting Therapists in Albion, CA

We're all in process of becoming, transitioning from who we’ve been into who we truly wish to be in this world. Various avenues of creativity can open different paths of insightfulness, as each of us ultimately holds the internal wisdom we require to change and transform while also understanding that everyone requires support, empathy and at times someone to help hold themselves accountable. I work from a trauma informed perspective and integrate a variety of approaches within sessions including but not limited to somatic awareness, mindfulness, brain spotting and creative catharsis.

I have had many years of experience dealing with trauma, including treatment of Complex and Developmental Stress. I am comfortable with both men and women, dealing with issues ranging from life transition, divorce, narcissistic parents and spouses, addiction and codependency. We will discuss self-limiting beliefs and behaviors affecting your mind, body, and soul.

Today, I encourage you to consider an alternative future. One where you are at peace with yourself. Where the light and dark within you are both accepted unconditionally and you remember who you were before the beliefs that currently limit you were formed. I strive to help others separate themselves from their problems, including significant symptoms and behaviors. You HAVE a problem. YOU are not a Problem. For the last 15 years I have worked with children, adolescents, adults and their families. Ready to dive deep and make a change? Let's talk!

When provided well, therapy becomes one of the most valuable investments of your life, because it provides the foundation for creating a more peaceful and fulfilling existence. I believe we all have an innate ability to live a life of purpose. I am simply a guide to support you in arriving there. You will learn to communicate effectively and create a balanced life through shifting your engrained responses related to your experiences of trauma, relationships and biological aspects.

Hello and welcome. I love helping people figure out what is underneath the things that bother them and get in the way. I specialize in helping people when they feel stuck.

You deserve a welcoming space that allows you to feel encouraged, understood, valued, and capable of positive change. As a therapist, and fellow human, I know how stressful and confusing life can be. Painful past events can leave us defeated and disconnected. Major life transitions can be overwhelming. Depression & anxiety can rob us of vitality and mental peace. Great healing can happen through safe & genuine connection to another. Sessions with me are peppered with moments of humor, gentle directness, and deep realness.

Many of the clients I work with recognize the soul even if they call it something else like spirit or Self. Regardless of what we call this depth we often arrive at crossings in life where that center is lost, buried, or suffering. These can be painful crossings, with subtle and sometimes disturbing pleas for a return to adventure, more imagination, trauma sensitivity, exploration of sharing our gifts - and pursuit of a more meaningful life.

I believe that we all possess the inner wisdom and ability to thrive when we're connected to our authentic and embodied self. My goal as a therapist is to help you get in touch with this self so that you can live your best life. In our work together, I can help you identify your greatest strengths and work through any road blocks that may be inhibiting your path. By providing a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space, I'll help you explore the thoughts and behaviors that no longer serve you and work toward healing past emotional wounds that may be holding you back from living a truly fulfilling life.

When you are searching for a therapist the many choices may be confusing. There are so many different ways to describe a safe place where one can explore options, learn to communicate more effectively, debrief from previous hurts, exploitations or resolve a current crisis. Achieving a higher standard of life through self awareness and for some, banishing the self talk of shame and low self esteem which brings many to seek help. As your therapist, I incorporate my own personal work, training and supervison and above all, the experience of working with clients for the past 30 years.

Brainspotting is a neuro-experiential therapeutic modality developed by David Grand to heal trauma. Trauma is any experience that overwhelms one's resources and causes emotional, physical or psychic distress. The brain compartmentalizes traumatic experiences so that the person can continue to function and move forward in life, but there is a price to pay for compartmentalization, i.e., unexpected reactivity, depression, anxiety, substance use and failed relationships. Brainspotting facilitates access to where the trauma is stored in the brain so that it can be processed and integrated, and cut-off, frozen parts of self retrieved.

Are you tired of going through the motions, weighed down by stress, anxiety, or anger? Do you long for more ease and joy in your relationships, in your life? Are you ready to break free from the cycle of pretending everything is okay? Would you like to learn practical strategies to rewire your brain - to manage your emotions, set boundaries & communicate more effectively? If so, you're in the right place. Through a unique blend of clinical, spiritual, and heart-centered practices (as well as Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy), we'll unwind what's been stuck in your body and create internal space so you'll have choice in your responses

For many of us, especially when we've tried before, it can feel impossible to even hope that change or healing may be possible. We feel blocked by moods, situations, patterns that we can't seem to change. On the other hand, many of us long to live a life in which we are wholly our self, to live from spaciousness and authenticity. If you're here, there's a part of you still holding hope. My approach in therapy is to address the parts of you that are hurting, to help them heal using trauma-informed modalities, then to help you to expand into whatever felt sense you are missing- calm, confidence, connectedness, clarity, ease.
