You’re trying your best, but life didn’t used to be this hard. Things aren’t going right. You notice it’s harder to be happy, to feel connected, or even to get out of bed in the morning. You’re tired of pretending to be okay; to be perfect. On the inside, you feel so sad, worried, and angry. You’ve pushed things down and ignored it, but you wonder how much longer you can do that. You’re used to fixing your problems on your own, but this time you can’t figure it out. You’re stuck. You want help; whether that's with OCD, burnout, adverse religious experiences, anxiety, trauma, faith & doubt, or life changes. You want to feel better!

Utilizing Brainspotting, I am able to work with your brain and body to heal deep psychological and ancestral wounds.
Are you tired of caretaking for everyone and feeling like no one cares for you? Do you struggle to give yourself the same kindness & compassion that you so easily give to others? Does guilt get in the way of you saying no and setting boundaries? Most of my clients are impacted by these issues and feel helpless in living an abundant life of self-love. My expertise is working with people to find healing and restoration through empowerment, developing insight, and working with the body. I understand how power, oppression, and trauma can contribute to distress and I work to instill hope.

I am an Internal Family Systems Level One trained therapist and am certified in Brainspotting.
You are someone who is self-aware and knows how to tell your story well. Maybe you’ve done traditional talk therapy in the past but are ready to try a different approach. I help those with a tendency to intellectualize reconnect with their emotions and body to support deep and meaningful change. Because of life experiences, we often develop coping mechanisms (responses) that were once adaptive but may no longer serve us in the present. Our work together can help you explore why you think, feel, and behave the way you do, while also inviting in qualities that may be a better fit for you in the here and now.

You never thought that raising a child would be so difficult or overwhelming! You want to connect with your kid but feel distant and out of touch. Maybe there's a cultural gap, or maybe your teen is dealing with mental health issues that you find hard to understand or know what to do. Your strong-willed child may be challenging their school and home environments, resisting you every step of the way. Perhaps your adolescent is detached and unmotivated and you wish to help them find their spark. You may feel under-appreciated or lonely in your struggles and find yourself repeating actions you promised you would never do as a parent.

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.
