Imagine Yourself No Longer Being Held Back By Fear
Therapy for Adults in Grand Rapids, MI or Online Throughout MI, FL, & AZ
Are You Exhausted?
Are you tired of being held back by fears, lack of motivation, and ruminating thoughts? Is life feeling like a constant uphill battle, harder than it “should” be. You intellectualize everything and can’t get out of your head? If this sounds familiar, you are definitely not alone.
Maybe you’ve tried getting through it solo, hoping the thoughts and emotions would just magically resolve or disappear. But they keep resurfacing at unexpected times, getting in the way of your relationships, career, and life goals.
Maybe you’ve even tried therapy previously but it was short-lived - you tried it, but didn’t quite feel like a good fit. Now you are interested in trying again with a more holistic and personalized approach. You want strategies and skills, not just passive talk about your past.
CBT & Brainspotting: Integrating Conscious and Subconscious Healing
Hi! I’m Marie, and my goal is to get you out of therapy
Your brain is beautifully complex, and we'll leverage its power to help you heal. Through a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Brainspotting, we'll equip you with tailored tools and techniques for faster, sustainable healing.
My approach recognizes that true healing encompasses more than just the mind. We view you as a whole person, acknowledging the connections between your thoughts, emotions, physical sensations, and lived experiences.
By addressing these layers, we make way for more lasting transformation. This holistic perspective allows us to tailor our techniques to your unique needs, ensuring that every part of your authentic self is nurtured and strengthened throughout your healing journey.
Break Free from FEAR and Thrive
Offering powerful, evidence-based approaches to help you overcome fear and reclaim your life. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we'll work together to identify and challenge the beliefs about yourself and the world that keep you trapped in fear. You'll learn to transform your thoughts into more positive, realistic patterns, reducing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and social withdrawal.
For deeper, often subconscious fears, I also offer Brainspotting. This technique allows us to access and process emotional issues with minimal talking, reaching the deep brain where deep-rooted trauma and emotions live that you might be unaware of.
By combining these approaches, we'll not only address surface-level fears but also their underlying causes. You'll develop confidence, self-love, and the ability to recognize and overcome the things that hold you back. Our goal is to equip you with the tools to face life's challenges head-on, replacing fear with resilience and inner strength.
Let's embark on this journey together, using both mind and body to unlock your most authentic self and full potential.
So what are you waiting for? Let's do this! Your best life is just a few (admittedly tough) sessions away.
