When you've done it all but there's still something missing, it may be time to go deeper to find more lasting sources of well-being. I'm a contemplative therapist and ordained contemplative minister who may be the mirror you need for this season. I specialize in a mindful awareness process called Brainspotting. Brainspotting not only offers trauma healing and creative expansion: It can help you recover your connection to the authentic self that was shelved along the way.. I'm grateful to have provided over 10K hours of Brainspotting since 2013 and witnessed this amazing healing and spiritual growth. I'd be honored to accompany you.
Brainspotting is effective, so my calendar stays quite full. If you're in a stage of life where you need to be seen weekly, I have an extensive list of recommendations for you on my website. For work with me, I recommend you book a 90-min session every 3-4 weeks for $350. You'll be amazed at the change in you as Brainspotting keeps working between sessions!
No matter how much life experience you have or how accomplished you are, it takes courage to begin a new phase or a new way of doing life. Your courage to take action to explore my profile is just the beginning, and it will pay off. Take the next step now by reaching out!

To protect your privacy, I do not file insurance. Some clients have me run a super bill every so often that they turn in for reimbursement, if their insurance company does that. The quoted $250 rate is for 45-50 min. Again, I recommend booking 90 min for $350.

Lots of my work has involved helping people recover from addictions, attachments and compulsions, as well as helping their concerned friends and family members work through their own struggles. Often, it's AFTER the crisis is over, the kids are raised, and the career is situated that discontent sets in. There's a reason for that: it's time to go beyond survival mode. I'll help you navigate that.

My primary practice is the Neuroexperiential Model known as Brainspotting. It can feel similar to a powerful meditation, except that it is supported and targeted towards your specific interests and concerns. In this process, your brain receives the attuned mirroring it needs to see and heal itself, so you can shift from feeling tense/unsettled to back in flow. It is gentle and incredibly powerful.

In Process (Women's Process Group)

Hosted by
Christie Bates

In Process, women in MS and TN create a place to share themselves and lives - to their own level of willingness - in a safe community.  Process includes speaking and listening with the mind and heart - to ourselves, our bodies, and each other. It includes opportunities to get creative, to share tears and laughter. Groups meet 1st & 3rd Thursdays for $75 each, committing to 8 session at a time. If you're not already in therapy with me, an assessment ($180) is required to make sure this group is a good fit for where you are in your own process, assuming there is an open spot.
