TESTIMONIALS

WHAT OUR CIENTS SAY?

“Brainspotting, along with Gottman tools have helped us identified and change several destructive behavior patterns we learned from dysfunctional parents. When we Brainspot together, we often discover childhood traumas that intensify our emotional responses. After a few sessions, the original trauma loses much of its power. We now communicate in a healthy manner, as adults instead of wounded children and can discuss potentially explosive issues without aggression or defensiveness.”
