CREATING

A SAFE PLACE

At Enlightened Counseling, we offer a safe and compassionate space where you’ll feel seen, heard, and accepted. We work with all age groups, children, individuals and families. We use a variety of modalities such as EMDR, ART, AIT, DBT, CBT, EFT, Somatic therapy. We take a humanistic approach where our focus is centered on the client. Depending on your need we have therapist who work in family, marriage or individual therapy. We also work in trauma, the LGBTQ+ community, faith transitions, as well as individuals with ADHD and Autism. Our goal is to guide you through your unique journey, helping you discover and realign with your true self.

We believe that treating trauma allows its effects to no longer hold power over you. It can foster empowerment and more self compassion. It can help you connect to your true, authentic self.  Our team collaborates to find the best approaches, continually learning and growing to meet our clients’ evolving needs.

In our office, we laugh, hold space, embrace differences, and focus on mindfulness, self-compassion, and growth. We assist in creating awareness and shifting belief systems that no longer serve you. Your journey may feel daunting, but we’re here to support and celebrate you every step of the way.

“Laughter is the shortest distance between two people.” – Victor Borge

EMDR

EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing. EMDR therapy focuses directly on the memory by changing where the memory is stored in the brain so that the symptoms from the memory are reduced.

ACCELERATED RESOLUTION THERAPY

Accelerated Resolution Therapy, often referred to as ART, is a form of psychotherapy with roots in existing evidence-based therapies, but shown to achieve benefits much more rapidly. It helps clients suffering from trauma and other ailments.

ADVANCED INTEGRATIVE THERAPY

This is a trauma technique, It utilizes somatic work, mindfulness, trauma processing, and many other techniques, to produce in depth healing. It works on the core belief systems that are holding us back. It processes trauma and helps us connect to our center and start living a more authentic life.

SOMATIC RESOURCING & MINDFULNESS

Somatic Resourcing is a body-based therapy. Trauma is not about the event, it’s about what happens to the body. I cannot say enough about how learning to be mindful, to be in our bodies, to trust our bodies, is the first step in healing.

I have had multiple councilors, therapist and life coaches; nobody compares to Saskia. I have been searching to heal my traumas and she is the only person that has actually gotten to the root and the only person that has made a difference in my life for the better. Thank you Saskia for being patient and actually helping me work through my traumas. Highly recommend Saskia

Having a person I trust, for a regular therapy appointment each week for the past two years to help process and digest the wealth of experiences that my physical body/energy body/emotional body/thought body & bliss body have been exposed to in my lifetime (not to mention the epigenetic/generational trauma of my ancestors) has greatly helped me and improved my quality of life. I explored with numerous therapists in my 20’s and for most of my life I had given up on the idea that therapy could ever be useful - before finding a therapist and modality that deeply resonated for me. There are as many different therapists and modalities as there are constitutions - if you are suffering, I hope to help de-stigmatize this very useful tool. Through Saskia’s use of the Advanced Integrative Therapy modality, I have been able to retrieve and integrate traumatic imprints and patterns that were affecting my life in ways I was unaware. I'm a completely different person and my self-confidence and capacity to engage with life has been astounding. -Eva Ambika

Saskia is the absolute best! I adore her in every way and I’ve only been going to her, recently, for about a month and have already noticed and felt a difference within myself. I’m truly grateful for her and the methods she uses 💗 I’m excited to continue on my healing journey through the traumas I’ve faced in my life with Saskia by my side!

Saskia has changed my life. Because of her I have a great relationship with my self, husband, and family. It got me to a place where I could get rid of weight because I didn't need it for protection anymore. We have cleared so much childhood trauma. If you are stuck please reach out to her. She truly is a miracle in my life.
