O’Brien is a Marriage and Family Therapist Intern and offers psychotherapy with a Mind-Body emphasis drawing from an extensive background, including, but not limited to: a Master of Arts in Somatic Counseling Psychology from John F. Kennedy University (JFKU), Certified Sex Educator training from San Francisco Sex Information (SFSI) & Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) from Tapping the Matrix Academy.
Talking is great AND in my experience, can sometimes have limits, therefore the somatic practices I share, utilize the vast wisdom of the body and self-awareness to go deeper without having to necessarily go into re-traumatizing stories. Sessions are tailored to the individual(s), but may include awareness of bodily sensations, and/or movement, breathing techniques and/or somatic tools such as EFT (Tapping on traditional Chinese acupuncture points).
