Whitney Breshears, LPC, KAP, Somatic Touch Practitioner and Trauma Therapist. I came to Palo Santo with more than 10 years of experience in trauma therapy after working with an Inpatient Facility for children and an outpatient therapist with TFC.
I focus on supporting developmental and attachment trauma through Somatic Experiencing (SE), Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, and SE Touch Work for Trauma (aka Co-regulating Touch). I offer an intuitive and highly skilled healing process that blends trauma training with traditional and holistic modalities to meet the needs of each unique individual and nervous system.
I have completed extensive trauma training, including but not limited to Somatic Experiencing Training through the Trauma Institute in Boulder, CO. I am trained in EMDR, (TFCBT), Play Therapy and DDP. I am trained in Reiki, which works with the body’s energy system. I am also Advanced Level trained in Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy.
Due to my own struggle with an autoimmune disease, I was drawn to SE and Psychedelics. Determining that my health struggles were a result of how my body was processing and holding onto emotional and early life experiences. I am passionate about being with clients in their own process of connecting with their inner capacity to heal, body, mind and spirit.
