I have been there! Struggles and challenges have left me, at times, feeling as though I would never find my smile again. I forgot what my laugh sounded like. Not the fake one I can produce when I need to, but the one I can't stop or control when something is hysterical. I came to a place in life where I was not willing to accept good enough or not that bad. I wanted to live fully and wholly knowing who I am and how to be in healthy relationship.
Going on a journey to heal is scary. I had fear that others would judge me for reaching out. Some mental health helpers were not equip to understand the complexities of emotional trauma or able to recognize its hallmark signs. Others wanted desperately to help but did not have the tools or resources themselves.
Eventually, I found some amazing healers and fell in love with a process of guiding others through a framework of trauma support and healing.
I discovered Brainspotting and quickly realized this expedites healing for individuals that recognize their trauma but are powerless to stop their triggers. I use this process with couples who are unable to connect after traumatic events or having gone through disclosure and wanting to reintegrate connection.
If you have been stuck and not able to heal I have hope for you and hope is a powerful thing. Don't give up on yourself and your brain, body, and soul's ability to heal no matter how complex the journey may be.
Brainspotting reveals a client’s unprocessed traumas through fixed eye positions. Specific eye positions each link to their own “brainspot,” an area of the mind that retains thoughts and emotions. Clients fixate on troubling brainspots to uncover hidden mental challenges. Brainspotting a relatively new way to treat many traumas and mental challenges. In addictions, brainspotting is used to expose hidden wounds that trigger the habit. For this article, we’ll highlight the role of brainspotting in addiction recovery.
Brainspotting, EMDR, SE, and hypnosis cause similar brain states in clients. However, each method specializes differently for each client’s unique needs. Brainspotting (BSP) allows clients to guide themselves through their own subconscious or deeper brain layers. They choose what issue they’d like to start with. Then, they explore in and around it with only light guidance by their therapist. This method uses fixated, steady eye positions. Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing
(EMDR) also tackles client’s deep traumas. The therapist over stimulates the client’s senses to reduce the emotional weight of the chosen issue. EMDR usually uses rapid, repetitive eye motions. Hypnosis again takes on the powerful issues stored in a client’s mind. However, the therapist has a more active role by creating the hypnotic state for the client. They tell the client what to focus on, acting as the main direction for sessions.
Somatic experiencing (SE) uses small doses of trauma-related triggers to guide the client’s journey. The therapist guides the client by alternating between comforting and triggering experiences. This process trains a healthier mind-body response. EMDR, SE, and hypnosis each tend to be more structured types of mind-body therapy. These are great for clients who feel comfort from using very specific steps. BSP programs are ideal in addiction treatment when a client needs more freedom to confront their traumas. You may find that with more control over your own therapy, you’ll have a more meaningful and rewarding experience.
The majority of clients that try brainspotting find it extremely effective in relieving trauma and stress symptoms. Most describe it as life changing, fast acting, innovative when other therapies have failed, healing, peace producing, and a highly intuitive healing process.
Clients who have tried EMDR often find this modality more effective and a gentler process.
This can be coupled with other therapies for those looking to add to their current plan.
Brainspotting might be a good fit to work in tandem with your other therapies. In some programs, you might find yourself in BSP as you engage in CBT or DBT. Brainspotting can help recovering individuals if they:

We do offer a disclosure process. The goal here is long term care. Most couples start the process by working individually on recovery while preparing for disclosure. Following disclosure we provide close monitoring and care and design a plan based on your unique needs.
We assist in infidelity repair, assessing safety, assisting in evaluating needs, offering couples brainspotting, and sexual reintegration.
One of the hardest things a person can face is separation and possibly divorce.
The fallout can be massive. Family, friends, and community may judge, require more information for approval, or withdraw love and affection. Finances become stressful for most and financial abuse is often associated with these situations.
Though many people stay for the children they are often the ones to be the hardest on their parents due to pain and confusion.
If you can identify with lost community and are facing rebuilding on your own please reach out.
We can assist you in navigating the messy middle and developing a plan to survive the madness.
We offer small groups to support you through trauma, separation, divorce, chronic illness, and life transitions. Please contact Judee Alvarado for group support. judeesbiz@gmail.com
Have you ever identified with this statement?
"If things are required of me I can show up and people would never know the pain I'm in or what I'm going through, but if no one needs me at any given moment I'm flat. I'm flat on my back, not functioning, and unable to pull it together."
If the above statement is true of you, Judee wants you to know that:
"Beating yourself up in the middle of being unable to function is not fair to you. You are doing so much better than you think you are for what you have been through. Giving yourself a break and being gentle with yourself is the starting point. She relates it to a car accident. If you were in traction flat on your back people would be insisting on you resting, but we diminish the pain of a broken heart. "

What areas of your life are you hoping would disappear, ignoring, or not even aware of?
Your heart shattered when you discovered the one person who you trusted and should have your back,

betrayal from spouse’s sex/porn addiction, infidelity, or compulsive sexual behavior. Together we will

Saint Therese, the “LIttle Flower” of the “LIttle Way”
I am a grateful follower of Jesus Christ, a mother to 4 beautiful children, and a homeschooling parent of 15 years. My passion for Life Coaching was born out of my own trials, and the Lord placed a fire in my heart to use what I had been through to help other people.
One of my greatest passions is to help people learn how to break free from strongholds and move into vibrant living. I specialize in working with people struggling with sex addiction, and their partners who have been deeply impacted by betrayal trauma.
I approach my coaching from this same holistic viewpoint that I adopted to move toward my own greater wellbeing. I provide support, guidance, and encouragement to help you examine the areas of life that are out of balance, get to the root of what is holding you back, break free from those strongholds, and move forward on your journey towards vibrant wellbeing.
It is my heart and passion to journey with clients as they move out of paralysis and into recovery and FREEDOM!

I believe healing can come to all who seek it. My goal is to come along side those that seek healing as they process the reality that their marriage has not been what they thought it was and that their spouse has changed the rules.
I have had life drop me to my knees and have been through some very dark days but have made it to the other side. In my darkest of days after finding out about the reality of my marriage I personally experienced the benefits of coaching and know the power of healing that can come when surrounded by the right support system. After journeying through the discovery and struggle with SSA (same sex attraction) in my marriage, I realized my personal self-worth was not defined by the outcome of his struggle. And now by the grace of God, I am finding purpose in helping others on their journey to healing.
I have walked in your shoes and I understand your pain; it would be my honor to partner with you as you journey out of the darkness and into the light.
