Counseling offers a distinct approach compared to speaking with a friend with its professional expertise, neutrality, confidentiality, and organized structure. Counselors are trained to provide evidence-based advice, uphold strict confidentiality, and use specialized methods to address mental health and personal growth. They are impartial, focusing entirely on your needs without personal biases. While friends can offer emotional support, they may not have the same professional training, objectivity, or confidentiality, and their guidance can be shaped by personal experiences and emotions. Counseling creates a more tailored, structured, and confidential environment for tackling complex issues and fostering growth.
Brainspotting is used to address unresolved trauma. For it to be effective in a therapy setting, the client must trust and feel safe with the therapist. Once the client feels secure, the clinician helps activate the emotions tied to the traumatic event. Then, the clinician uses a pointer to guide the client in finding a spot in their vision, which helps the brain process the event.
We take an interdisciplinary approach to therapy, treating each person as an individual. By drawing on multiple disciplines, we tailor our methods to best address each person’s unique needs. This ensures that everyone who attends therapy here receives a personalized approach.
Core Beliefs: Core beliefs are deeply held principles that shape our actions, emotions, and responses. These beliefs are formed during childhood and adolescence and continue to influence how we show up as adults. They shape the way we view the world and the people around us.
Family History: We explore your family’s ecosystem, examining how you interact with one another, how emotions are handled, patterns that have been passed down, and the unspoken rules everyone follows.
Relationship Patterns: We help you understand how you communicate and show up in relationships. If needed, we support you in learning how to navigate relationships more effectively, set boundaries, develop secure attachments, and communicate more openly.
Inner Child Work: We take the time to understand all sides of you. Each part of you holds truths about what you’ve experienced throughout your life. Some parts carry heavy burdens, while others work to protect you at all costs.
Trauma Recovery: We use a combination of Internal Family Systems to explore your history and different parts, Attachment theory to understand your connections with others, and Brain Spotting to help you regain a sense of self and safety.
If you are familiar with therapy theories, we use a combination of the following: Attachment Theory, Brain Spotting, Internal Family Systems and Emotional Focused Therapy.
