Hi! I'm Dr. Bre (rhymes with "me"), and I primarily work with children, women and families. I specialize in teaching anxiety-reduction and calming techniques to kids and teens who are struggling with social anxiety and big feelings. I believe in working with all members of a family - it is important for parents to join sessions and stay in the loop so they know how to best support their child. I also offer an anxiety-reduction treatment protocol to women who want to increase their body's capacity for fertility. I use mind-body techniques to decrease stress in the body with the intention of increasing successful pregnancy outcomes.
Family therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Each family is unique and deserves a safe space to explore issues that interfere with everyday happiness and functioning. I utilize toys - play therapy - and a sand tray to help young children express emotions they do not yet have the vocabulary for. I connect with teens and older/adult kids through talk therapy.
Anxiety-Reduction Fertility Therapy is rooted in the connection between stress and the female body. This connection is well-researched; the reduction of stress in the mind and body can improve successful pregnancy outcomes. I use a science-based treatment protocol to reduce anxiety and calm inflammation, and challenge damaging thought processes.

A typical treatment plan might include an intake session, an assessment of the severity of your child's problem, and then a combo of 1-on-1 time with your child to develop strategies, as well as family sessions including parents. For my fertility clients, I developed a 4-step treatment protocol for anxiety reduction - please see my website for further information on this process.
