Optimize Performance

Would you like to improve your performance as an athlete, actor, trial lawyer, surgeon, dancer, therapist, dating adult, video game player.... generally how you show up as a human being? Brain spotting is a neurophysiological technique that enables  the nervous system to recalibrate and release distress stored in the limbic system.  This clutter accumulates from physical injuries, surgeries, overwhelming emotions, and difficult relationships. Our minds have natural systems for releasing this clutter and unlocking our potential.

Heal Invisible Wounds

Do you feel stuck?  Or like your mind keeps playing the same mental record over and again? Do you know what you "should" do but just can't make yourself do it? We don't have to be "sick" to benefit from fine-tuning our internal world and releasing ourselves from past experiences. We can heal wounds from childhood, employment, relationships, internet bullies, or whatever else is draining your energy and holding you back. You are designed to heal. Your willingness to do so is within your control.

Dr. Shanna Sadeh, JD, PhD, LP

Every person is naturally designed to heal wounds and expand their unique giftedness. These abilities can be constrained or disrupted when we experience physical injuries, overwhelming emotions, and difficult relationships. I specialize in helping people re-activate and optimize their talents through therapies that help the nervous system recalibrate. My clients range from high-performing athletes, artists, and professionals to high-school students who want to reduce anxiety for high-stakes testing or performances (speech/debate, theater, interviews). If you are still waiting to discover your giftedness, we can do that together.
