Brainspotting Therapists in Greensburg, PA

I am a trauma therapist who enjoys helping individuals and families bring more joy and compassion to their relationships. I am available to meet with you for a series of intensive virtual sessions or for several days of intensive in-home work. I bring understanding and light as we work to overcome emotional hardships based on common problems including anger, anxiety, grief, depression, phobias, low self-esteem, post-traumatic stress disorder, relational problems and more.

Are you stuck in a repetitive pattern that leaves you feeling helpless and misunderstood? Are you hoping for immediate change for you and/or your family? Are you suffering from depression, addiction, or a traumatic experience? Is your marriage or family crisis? I help individuals, couples and/or families get immediate help, even if counseling was not helpful in the past. Sessions are not limited to an hour or once a week. I am also available to come into your home if that would be most helpful.

I am an EMDR certified trauma therapist and a Certified Trauma & Resilience Practitioner. I emphasize unconditional positive regard, attuned presence, teaching mind-body skills to relieve anxiety and depression, and developing safe spaces in which to heal from trauma.

Do you struggle with anxiety or imposter syndrome? Or how about perfectionism or relationship struggles? On the surface, everything seems sound, yet beneath the exterior lies a persistent battle w/ anxiety and self-doubt. Maybe you are unable to articulate emotions, feel a lack of joy despite having a full life. Or maybe you have abandoned self-interests due to helping everyone around you. But you are here because you have reached a pivotal moment of self-awareness and readiness for change. You have a willingness and openness to exploring vulnerability and addressing deep-seated issues, if so- we should talk!

I look forward to hearing from you and supporting you during your healing journey!

Welcome! In my practice, my clients often tell me they feel anxious, stuck, and overwhelmed by their past, present, and future. They speak about patterns of people-pleasing, impostor syndrome, social anxiety, and perfectionism after experiencing events such as childhood bullying or parental abuse. Many experience a mismatch between their thoughts and what they feel in their bodies.

Beginning in January 2024, my valued colleague, Jennifer Huffman and I are launching a combined practice that will be known as True to You. Each of us brings 20+ years of experience in the helping professions into this new venture. Both Jennifer and I have a background in addictions treatment, working together at Gateway Rehabilitation Center for 8 years. In the past decade we have both expanded our focus into other areas of therapeutic work. A common thread of purpose in our work has been to assist our clients in actively living from a more authentic sense of themselves. We hope to help you along on your path to being true to you.

All of our life experiences shape us into the people we become, however, at one point or another in most of our lives, we question the direction that we are going and if our lives are as joyful and enriched as possible. Through self-exploration and addressing unresolved problems, individuals can take control of their futures. Let’s talk about that process!

I am dedicated to counseling individuals, couples and families that want or need change. I want to first understand your life situation and get to know you. As we better understand how you think, express your feelings and how you cope with it all, we can problem solve and come up with a plan. We will figure out positive forms of coping that will help and fit your lifestyle. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression or trauma, I use cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to decrease symptoms and brain based interventions for longer term healing as necessary.

We serve a wide range of clients and have clinicians trained in trauma therapy with experience working with adults, teenagers, children, couples, and groups. We offer EMDR, DNMS, DBT, and CBT approaches to therapy. We offer bilingual psychotherapy for Spanish-speaking clients. We also offer couples therapy and workshops to enhance relationships. We have several clinicians with substance abuse and process addiction backgrounds for those who struggle with addiction in addition to mental health issues.

Whether this is your first time seeking out therapy or you have been in therapy before but are looking for a different approach, you are welcome here. My clients are mainly Gen Z and Millenial women who are highly self-aware and emotionally intelligent, but what they "know" and what they feel don't match. This feels frustrating because society tells us that we should be able to change how we feel by changing our thinking. You've tried that and wish it were that easy. My goal is to help you shift away from surviving, and closer to thriving.
