Brainspotting Therapists in Twain, CA

Isolation, trauma, loneliness, shame and anxiety. How much do these words hit home for you? Chronic stress can leave you feeling helpless, frustrated, and so much more. These emotions can seep into all aspects of your life, leaving you questioning your own strength. I’m here to tell you it doesn’t have to be that way. When you’re supported with empathy and compassion, it’s entirely possible to rediscover the resilience and courage you’ve always had, and overcome what can feel like the hardest part of life. Your story is unique to you as is your experience of your trauma.

Our growing and healing is a life long journey. Taking this step to find the support and guidance in a therapist can seem overwhelming and risky yet may be most rewarding. I hope you embrace this adventure. Let's journey to understand you better while identifying patterns of protection that can block deep connection and feeling heard, understood. Compassion, understanding and acceptance are central to my approach.

I feel incredibly fortunate to help my clients find the freedom to live a life of their choosing, improve their relationship with self and others, and find peace. I use brain-based therapies proven to uncover and address issues that talk therapy can take years to heal. In doing so I help children, teens and adults overcome challenges that keep them stuck in negative patterns. Often traumas are at the root of these negative patterns. By offering Brainspotting, a cutting-edge therapy that evolved from EMDR, trauma is accessed, processed and released. This is life-changing. This is freedom.

Life is full of changes, we can count on this! During these ever changing times and seasons in living, our lives can be thrown off balance! Counseling support provides a special ‘time out’ where you can identify your current needs and address current symptoms and issues in need of attention and change from a compassionate and caring therapist. During this season with on-going losses, as a Certified Grief Educator, integrating issues of loss and grief into your counseling session remains so important! We all grieve differently...having a safe-place to process your grief, to remember your loved one, is a special honor and privilege.

Therapy is a place where you can show up as you are, where you won’t be judged or shamed. It’s a place where you can work on yourself, focus on you and be met with positive regard and acceptance. No matter whether you are seeking therapy for trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, Bipolar Personality Disorder, etc., whether it's for emotional health reasons, or if you just need someone who is objective/neutral to be there while you are going through a tough time in your life, just know that you are welcomed here and this is a safe space for you.

Are you noticing experiences from your past showing up in your life or relationships today? Perhaps you’re realizing that the childhood you thought was “typical” was actually anything but, and you’re seeing the patterns showing up in the partners you choose or your tendency to try and keep everyone happy.

While you might have pushed it away for a while, you now can’t ignore the impacts of these experiences on your body, your partner, your child, and your mental health.
