Therapy That Lets the Light In

Do you often feel trapped by your thoughts and worries? Are you feeling crushed under the weight of others’ expectations? Are you lonely and feel like you don’t belong? I am the therapist for you! Hi! I'm Desi, the passion and brain behind Brightline. When you come in for your first visit, you can expect a nonjudgmental, warm environment where building a trusting relationship comes first. Wherever you are at in your self-discovery journey, I’ll meet you there! Authentic connection with yourself and others is the key to a joyful, peaceful life. My method is whole-person focused fostering acceptance and space for your unique story! This approach creates safety for self-exploration and personal insight, transforming your ability to manage daily stress and heal relationships- most importantly, the one with yourself. I work collaboratively with clients to uncover and address the underlying fears and negative thought patterns that shape their lives. As you develop clarity, you'll gain a sense of grounded belonging and connection to yourself again! This will empower you with healthy coping skills and emotional resilience rooted in authenticity and self compassion. With 10 years of experience working with adolescents, adults and families in private practice, non-profits, and schools, I’ve helped countless individuals reclaim their identity and navigate their path to healing and self-discovery. It takes courage to begin this journey, I am eager to take the step with you! Together, we'll light the way to a brighter more fulfilling life.
