Elaine Brattain, a compassionate Marriage & Family Therapist Associate, understands that many individuals may feel overwhelmed by their experiences, believing they lack the ability to cope. She emphasizes that they are not alone; countless others have navigated similar challenging emotions. Elaine recognizes that many of the struggles people face arise from various forms of loss, including the loss of identity, mobility, loved ones, and dreams of ideal relationships or careers. Such losses can be sudden and traumatic, disrupting lives, derailing goals, and complicating relationships. Drawing from her rich life experiences as a woman, mother, stepparent, grandparent, entrepreneur, and military family member, Elaine is equipped to support her clients through grief, trauma, and women's issues. She creates a safe environment where individuals can uncover their strengths, examine negative thought patterns, and heal from past traumas. With a blend of empathy and gentle humor, she helps her clients restore balance, find meaning amidst chaos, and cultivate a sense of hope and peace. Elaine invites those ready to move forward to discuss how they might work together to shape a more fulfilling life through an eclectic range of therapeutic modalities, including Humanistic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, and more.
