Therapeutic Approaches

Brittany is trained in a variety of therapeutic approaches and modalities, but has specialized training and experience in the use of EMDR protocols for trauma, working with children, and working with those experiencing chronic illness or disability.

EMDR is a specialization that requires several hours of training and practice for a clinician. It is "an extensively researched and highly effective therapeutic protocol to help people heal and recover after trauma or other distressing experiences including [but not limited to] anxiety, depression, PTSD, and/or panic disorders." *

Check out this video from the EMDR International Association (EMDRIA) to learn more about how EMDR can help here.

Along with basic EMDR, I am specialty trained to work with EMDR for those with Chronic Pain/Chronic Illness,those with migraines, and many more physical diagnoses. With 14 credit hours of focused training in this area, together we can improve your physical pain as a result of chronic illness/chronic pain, trauma, or injury.

Chronic Illness has a way of flowing into every area of our life from our relationships, to our roles, to our daily activities. Find support and understanding from a highly trained professional, who utilizes a person-centered approach, as you adjust, grieve, and ultimately find your way to feeling empowered in your body again. 

I look to a child's natural way of learning and growing, using play/ play therapy and trauma informed approaches like TF-CBT, to address issues that might otherwise be hard for a child to sit and discuss. After years of working inside schools, and specifically with differently-abled students, I am passionate about supporting children and their families as they discover healing.

Other Therapeutic Concerns: 

Often times clients wonder if what they've experienced is really considered trauma. Or maybe what you are looking for is support with work stress, relational conflicts, or something else entirely. Don't fret! I am happy to work with you to address your specific concerns with my training and knowledge.
