Ecotherapy

Brainspotting is a powerful treatment for trauma and mental health challenges such as anxiety and relationship distress. This clinically-proven therapy engages deep parts of your brain through your senses (primarily sight, sound, and the felt-sense of your body) so that healing can safely occur without requiring that you explain your experience.

The simple technique used in Brainspotting – focusing your gaze on a pointer held by a trained therapist while tuning in to your emotions and bodily sensations – can have a surprisingly profound impact on your ability to connect with meaningful emotions and develop new perspectives on your challenges.

Looking at the brainspot during therapy helps you focus on and heal from painful experiences and beliefs. This gentle process allows stuck patterns to shift and self-limiting beliefs to be re-considered, allowing growth and change to occur naturally.

It's surprising but true: where you look effects how you feel. Thousands of therapists around the world have trained in this form of healing.
I am a certified Brainspotting therapist, and part of my training has been focused on attuning to the experiences of BIPOC adults.

Because I've seen this form of therapy facilitate profound change, Brainspotting is my primary modality. I am happy to integrate more traditional talk therapy as well as other forms of somatic therapy into our work together as needed.

Brainspotting is effective in-person through nature-based therapy as well as virtually.
