Customized Therapy to Meet Individual Needs
As licensed professional counselor with 30+ years of experience, I have training in a variety of therapeutic methods to help clients create healthy lives. During your initial intake, we will discuss what patterns are keeping you stuck and which approaches might work best to meet your goals. As we partner together, we can adjust treatment to best meet your needs.Talk Therapy
Talk therapy focuses on our thoughts and behaviors. It helps us identify what we believe and create in our lives. Sometimes it is helpful to get an objective view of what is happening to cause emotional upset. Often trauma and emotional upset exist in our body beyond our awareness. When our body responds before we are aware of the triggers, other therapeutic methods can be helpful to address trauma.Polyvagal Therapy and Somatic Work
Polyvagal therapy and somatic work are interconnected approaches that focus on the body’s role in emotional regulation and trauma recovery. Polyvagal breathing emphasizes the role of the vagus nerve in regulating stress responses. Slow, deep breaths help shift the parasympathetic nervous system from a state of fight or flight into calmness, relaxation, and safety.What Is BrainPaint® Neurofeedback?
Think of your brain as a high-performance race car. Even the most powerful car cannot perform at its best if the driver has difficulty shifting gears at the right time. In a similar way, the brain may sometimes have difficulty adjusting its activity to meet the demands of different situations. BrainPaint® Neurofeedback, also known as EEG biofeedback, is a non-invasive form of brain training designed to help the brain recognize and develop healthier patterns of activity. Using sensors placed on the scalp, BrainPaint® Neurofeedback measures brainwave activity and provides real-time feedback that helps the brain practice responding more efficiently and flexibly.How Can BrainPaint® Neurofeedback Help?
