Does this sound like you?:

You feel powerless in trying to fix things in the relationship on your own.

You feel like a broken record, asking for the same things over and over again until you blow up and you’re just tired of being THAT person.

You no longer want to feel afraid of being YOU.

You no longer want to feel confused about yourself and your relationship.

You want to get back to the strong, confident woman that you know is inside of you.

Go deeper
Feel better faster
Focus in on a very specific goal or concern
Work through trust violations and rebuild trust after infidelity
Save time (no weekly therapy for months)
Save money (it adds up when it takes longer)
Experience uninterrupted therapy time (Not having to pause the healing process to do life in between sessions)

A Brainspotting intensive is a powerful way to accelerate the therapy process. Instead of going to therapy once a week, you can do a therapy intensive in a week. This is more than just regular talk therapy - Brainspotting is a cutting edge technique that creates new neural pathways in the brain that leave you feeling like you can finally let go and move on from your past and with more uninterrupted time to process, you can make much more progress than is possible in weekly therapy. If you’re ready to face your past, say goodbye to intense arguments and blow ups, and create peace and connection with your partner - then a Brainspotting intensive may be for you!

I’m sure you’ve heard that the best way to have a great marriage is to never go to bed angry.

It’s concerning to me that couples will literally stay up all night going around and around with the same argument because they are trying to stick to this rule.

I dunno about you but that sounds like a one-way ticket to complete exhaustion and a week of trying to make up for lost sleep.

When couples start working with us not only do they learn how to regulate their emotions, but they understand their body’s warning signals that tell them when they are starting to become dysregulated.

They learn how to call time-outs and how to respect one another’s requests to stop and return to the conversation when they are feeling more in control of their emotions.

Our couples learn how to communicate in a way that makes them feel heard and understood. They learn how to have conflict and still feel connected and loving.

They don’t turn into enemies and they actually come to agreements about the things they are fighting about.

There’s no more pushing things under the rug, walking on eggshells, or silent treatment.

If you want to stop having marathon fights and learn how to improve your communication…

Ketamine Therapy is the process of receiving Ketamine. You can administer it through an IV, a lozenge, or nasal spray. Most Ketamine clinics provide a medical evaluation prior to treatment. Then, the patient arrives and the drug is administered.

Ketamine remains in the system for 45 minutes to 2 hours. During this time, the person feels sedated and has an internal psychedelic experience. Once the experience is over, a chaperone will wheel the patient out to drive them home.

Without appropriate integration, the experience is just an experience. It can be difficult to process the learnings from the experience. It can be difficult to allow them to permeate everyday life.

Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is more fully supported. The emphasis and focus are on the preparation, intention setting, and integration processes.

The Ketamine Journeys I facilitate are 3-hour sessions. We discuss intentions and practice meditation. I help ease the client into the experience. Once the effects of the ketamine wear off there is plenty of time for clients to return to their bodies and process the experience.

1-3 days following a journey, clients return to my office for an integration session. In this session, we also use aromatherapy. It helps the client remember the learnings they experienced during their journey.

We discuss any insights they’ve had. I also use Brainspotting to anchor in the experience. It helps clients return to the places and feelings they’d like to take away from the experience.

If you’re ready to embark on a transformative journey click the link in our bio to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation. I’ll answer all your questions and make sure it’s right for you. *

New blog post! ⭐️

Does this sound like a familiar cycle to you: Do you blow-up, push away, give the silent treatment, and then start speaking again when you have to (because of some shared commitment), and then extend an olive branch somehow and return to homeostasis, until the next time?

I know these cycles so well! I know them because I see them day after day. When couples step into our offices for the first time we always ask them to describe the dance they do when they get into fights and while every couple is unique the cycles sound pretty similar.
