Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Brainspotting Intensives
Do regular therapy sessions seem too short?
Are you looking for more time to spaciously explore your system to be able to find healing faster?
If so, intensive sessions might be for you!
Whether a current or former client, or receiving therapy elsewhere, we can work together to help you find peace, confidence, and wholeness.
Brainspotting is an effective way to deeply heal trauma. By finding a place to hold your vision, you go more deeply into your brain, where the trauma is stored. I will guide you as you mindfully process the events so that they no longer feel like they are in the present, but can be an integrated story in your past.
Alli has been trained in levels 1, 2, and 5 of brainspotting, and has taken the specialty Brainspotting and Parts Work training. She especially loves using this model with singular traumas, stuck beliefs, and to help resource and ground.
We are all made up of parts. In traumatic experiences, big and small, some of our parts become wounded and hold burdens. Some parts try to keep these wounds at bay by keeping busy, trying to be perfect, criticizing ourselves, keeping others out, and more. Others are activated when the wounds come out and try to push them down by dissociation, numbing, binging, hurting ourselves - the list goes on. When we get to know these parts with curiosity and compassion, they can each heal.
Alli has completed Levels 1 and 2 IFS training. She especially loves using this model with complex and attachment-based wounds.

Is there anything to do before I start?
Yes! If you are a new client, we will first have a free 15-minute consultation call. This helps me learn about you, your hopes, and to see if this is a good fit for you. If we decide to move forward, I will send you some paperwork to complete in advance. Sometimes, I may suggest we hold a shorter session first to help you prepare.
