All of us have to deal with stress, pain, and change, and we all know that it's not easy. But I am a firm believer that having support and being equipped with processing tools can make all the difference. I would love to provide those resources to you and am currently accepting new clients! I have experience working with people of a wide range of ages and situations, but I specialize in working with teens and young adults.

Hello, I'm Brynn, and I'm so happy you found me. I know you may feel like you’re ready to commit to giving therapy a try. But perhaps there is some fear as well. Maybe you’ve had a bad experience with therapy in the past. Or maybe you were raised to think negatively about seeking mental health help. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and make you feel heard. My goal is to help those I work with feel empowered and hopeful. To do that we may use EMDR, and other ways to help connect those parts of you that may feel disconnected. So let’s talk through some of the things you’ve been feeling and come up with a plan together.

We as people tend to become comfortable with behaviors that make us uncomfortable. As strange as it might sound, we are drawn to the easy and familiar instead of things that might be good for us. This is where anxiety, depression, trauma and addiction thrive. If you're reading this, you have already taken the first step toward becoming a better, more confident, and more satisfied version of yourself. If you are ready and committed to improving yourself, I am here to help you through your journey.

I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) and am experienced in treating trauma, anxiety, and panic. When people have been dealing with these problems for a while, it can sometimes feel like things will never get better. But therapy can offer real pathways to recovery. Additionally, many of the people I treat are struggling with complex, strained, or toxic family relationships. I can help you to develop new perspective and establish boundaries to make these relationships as healthy as possible.

I specialize in working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families.

I love seeing clients' strengths and their ability to unlock their true self - to see the potential and value that they have. I understand that clients come into the clinic with different backgrounds, histories, and readiness for treatment, and I am ready to join with them wherever they are at on their journey through life and help them reach the goals they set out to achieve. I especially enjoy working with individuals struggling with addiction, anxiety, depression, and challenging life changes.

CBT-cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on changing distorted thinking. Many clients have negative thinking and self-hatred, which has influenced behaviors. EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is a form of therapy that helps people heal from trauma or other distressing life experiences. DBT-Dialectical Behavioral Therapy teaches mindfulness, a technique to help clients live their lives fuller and more aware. DBT teaches distress tolerance, effective relationship skills, emotion regulation and coping skills for life's challenges. Play therapy uses play to help children deal with emotional and mental health issues.

Life brings with it challenges and stresses for all of us that, at times, make the journey seem frightening and hopeless. Anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and trauma find their way into ALL of our lives to one degree or another. When we experience such times, we long for a deeper connection with our loved ones but are unable to find it. The good news is that we don’t need to suffer alone and there IS hope for healing and connection!

Each of us have beliefs and experiences that impact our ability to form meaningful relationships, accomplish goals, or accept ourselves. My hope is to help the individuals, couples and families I work with challenge these negative beliefs and guide them in using skills to develop a stronger sense of self and more stable relationships. Over the past decade I have specifically worked with adolescents, young adults and their families. I love this stage of life, the change that can take place is amazing if given the right tools. Balancing independence and connection for individuals and family is one of my main goals in therapy.

My philosophy is that we don’t go to therapy to feel good; rather, we go to therapy to get good at feeling. Trauma, abuse, prejudice, shame, and mental illness can all lead to difficulties with experiencing emotions and being accepting of ourselves. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space to help you navigate, identify, and explore your feelings and behaviors. I specialize in working with women and members of the LGBTQIA+ community. I am conscious of all my clients’ social identities and the impact of oppression and trauma.

I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist and the owner of Wellspring Healing and Therapy. At our practice, we believe that humans flourish when given compassion and grace. We trust in your inherent goodness, even if sometimes you don't feel it. We provide individual, couple, and family therapy for people experiencing depression, suicidality, problematic/out-of-control sexual behavior, trauma and PTSD, anxiety, OCD, faith transitions, LGBTQIA+ affirmative work, performance anxiety, and grief.

I believe therapy doesn't have to be serious and intense in order to be effective. I appreciate being able to laugh (or cry) with my clients and I work to bring my most authentic self to sessions. I enjoy helping clients learn more about themselves and why they do the things they do. I am both direct and kind as I work to help clients build new skills, challenge unhelpful thinking patterns, achieve their goals and anything else that brings them to therapy.
