You're overwhelmed, you feel disconnected from yourself, and your anxious thoughts take over more often than you wish they would. You want to get to the root of what's keeping you stuck. You've tried so many things to help yourself! Books, deep breathing, special routines, and all the coping skills in the world only help temporarily, or not at all. You want to feel like you know and can be yourself in all the areas of your life. You've always felt different than those around you - your life doesn't follow the status quo. You want to live authentically and experience more peace, connection, ease, and flow in your life. It's time.

Your world is spinning. Your heart is beating rapidly, and you’re finding it difficult to catch your breath. Your thoughts race between “What am I going to do?” and “Who am I without them?” Tears are flowing. Can you hear the voice now? The voice that has always been there. It is still calm and nurturing. “I am here.” “You will be ok,” it whispers. But what does “ok” look like moving forward? Whatever it is, you know that it will be drastically different than the old “ok.” It is time to create a new normal. You’ve silenced your inner voice for so long, but now you know you need it more than ever. It’s time to tune into that voice.

We can work on the things that are making you feel overwhelmed now, as we work towards long term change.

Healing and recovery is possible. Change doesn’t come over night so it can seem daunting but in my 18 years of experience I have learned that people mainly want to be heard and validated. I will support Anyone through Anything, Anytime . I have experience working with grief, trauma, addiction, depression, anxiety, low self esteem, and mood instability. I value working with all ages, genders, backgrounds, and orientations. As a person centered and solution focused therapist we will begin where you are and move toward mental wellness. EMDR/CBT are effective tools to address concerns.

Do you feel stuck, want to get unstuck, and for good? Do you KNOW all the things but struggle to implement and/or believe them about yourself?

I'm trained in EMDR and certified in neuropsychotherapy, which means we'll work with science to help you heal and move forward. We'll make sure your brain and body are telling the same story, that the story is accurate, and that it's the one you want to be living. We'll do this with humor and together!

It can be really tough to reach out and make that first step in seeking a better quality of life. Everyone needs someone in their corner, whether it be to listen or provide an unbiased perspective to work towards positive life changes. Maybe it's needing someone that doesn't judge you, knowing that, here, you are accepted for exactly who you are. Here, you get to let that out and work on being you in all areas of your life.

While talk therapy offers critical and necessary support during overwhelming periods of life, some of us feel as if life contains an "overwhelming period" on a nearly daily basis. Neurodivergent Therapies' owner (Alyson "Rae" Pittman, LPC) began wondering how the efficacy of therapy could be improved and the needed timeline shortened. One treatment addition for both of these goals is Neurofeedback (NFB) Training, a non-invasive and non-medication option for teaching your brain the rhythms, patterns, and "dance steps" your brain has yet to effectively learn.

Life is full of ups and downs that can be overwhelming at times. While learning to manage and adapt is important to personal growth, so is having someone walk that journey with you. I base my therapeutic approach around building a solid foundation of trust and acceptance with my clients. I value individuality and will encourage first and foremost that you accept “you as you” and not what today’s societal norms tell you what you should or shouldn’t be. I look forward to working with you and/or your family and being a resource to help you continue your journey.
