In the past three years, I have worked as a counselor to both children and to victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. As a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate I use modalities, such as HearthMath, Brainspotting and Trauma Focused-CBT, that help to reduce anxiety, depression, and aids them in finding strength within themselves.
I use Brainspotting to help clients process their traumas and any issues that may be causing them distress in their lives. By using this modality, clients will be able to learn how to emotionally regulate themselves in times of stress and uncertainty, and it allows them to gain access to the deeper parts of the primitive brain where deep process occurs.
I use play, sand tray, and art therapies to help children learn positive coping strategies that teach them how to manage problems with anxiety, depression, and traumas that they may have in order to give them a better start at their futures.
