As your counselor, I aim to work with you to make sure you have the right tools and support to you in navigating life and your mental health. I believe in the importance of centering your values and needs in our work together.

I help clients heal from narcissistic abuse.
-Do you find yourself having thoughts that you just can't get out of your head or that the smallest thing sets you off?
-Is it difficult to shut your brain off at night or you keep replaying the same situation or experience?
-Maybe you become silent in situations or with others when speaking is necessary or even urgent.
-Do you have repeated nightmares or flashbacks of a situation that happened recently or a long time ago?
-Do you yell or overreact in situations or with other people and regret it later?
If you answered "yes" to any of these, we would be a good fit.

I work with adult individuals (25+) and partners in relationships who are emotionally attuned but often exhausted—due to chronic overfunctioning, people-pleasing, or feeling disconnected from their own feelings and needs. Many carry relational wounds, identity pain, and/or the fearful beliefs that they are “too much” or “not enough”. My deepest calling is to support people in reclaiming the parts of themselves that have never felt fully seen, understood, or celebrated. I believe healing begins in spaces where we can slow down, feel safe enough to be witnessed in our rawness, and build more honest connections—with others and within.

Having a space to bring the difficult and messy stuff can make all the difference. I enjoy working with children/teens (ages 8+) and adults of all ages who are navigating anxiety (including social anxiety), depression, grief, loss, and other life transitions.

I offer a relational space to deepen self-understanding and gain insight into patterns that affect your relationships or keep you feeling stuck. With my background in life coaching, I hold a hopeful perspective that honors your strengths, resilience, and capacity for change.

Are you feeling burnt out, emotionally exhausted, and like you’re barely holding it together? Your brain never seems to shut off, you feel pressure from perfectionism to do things “right,” and you avoid daunting tasks until the stress is all-consuming. Many of my clients are used to putting the needs of others before their own, which often leaves you with little time or energy to recharge and care for yourself. I might be a good fit for you if you’re ready to explore what your own needs are, and build some sustainable self-care habits.

My ideal clients are adolescents, young adults, and adults, especially within the 2SLGBTQ+ community, gender diverse, and other, even intersecting marginalized individuals. Those of you who are ready to explore who they are beneath what they've been given. You may be navigating gender-affirming care, healing from religious trauma or cult experiences, processing family estrangement, or standing at a meaningful crossroads. Together, we will use narrative, reality, and person-centered approaches to gently sift through what does not serve you, and build something that actually reflects who you are.

Accepting new clients via Telehealth. I have been practicing psychotherapy for 17 years. During that time, I have repeatedly observed that each client is unique, and brings their own reasons for seeking therapy. Therefore, my challenge as a therapist is to create a different psychotherapy experience for each client. The research is clear, the most curative aspect of therapy is the relationship. I focus on connecting with a person where they are. Through new skills and insight, I help to rediscover one's authentic way of being in the world. Improved well-being comes from better care for wounded aspects of ourselves.

Dr. Brings works with individuals who are experiencing stress from adverse life events and situations, are feeling stuck, lost, or unsure, about finding their way through the maze of life, or are simply caught up in the stress of being human. They may be experiencing anxiety, depression, loneliness, self-defeating thoughts, feelings or behaviors, or impairments in personal, relational, educational, occupational or other important areas of functioning. They are seeking to understand these events, situations, and experiences, to rise above them, and to go forward with their lives, in health and wellness, to positive lives and futures.

What do you call a Centaur with a limp?..... .... . "Off-Centaur". (insert knee slap and HAHAHA's here). Hi! I’m Cheyne (she/they). It's summer time! And.. you are feeling stuck. Summer often brings more space to notice the things we’ve been pushing past; burnout, overwhelm, relationship patterns, anxiety, or a sense of feeling disconnected from ourselves. Summer can be a surprisingly meaningful time to start therapy, shifting schedules and longer days often create more space to notice the patterns, overwhelm, or disconnection we’ve been pushing past, rather than waiting until things feel unbearable.

I believe that therapy should be a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered to create meaningful change. My approach is direct, compassionate, and grounded in meeting you where you are.
