Gracie Berntsen

My goal is to help clients feel connected and supported throughout their fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and/or loss journeys. I know how anxiety and stress can be major factors during this time and I want to help people find the resources they need to manage whatever stressors they are dealing with. I also know the importance of having partners and family members understand the intensity of this time and am trained to help clients increase communication skills with their support system. I help clients navigate overwhelm, disappointment, frustration, guilt, and all the other emotions that can arise during times of stress. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and am advanced trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy which uses bilateral eye movements to support emotional expression and trauma recovery. I am also trained in Exposure and Response Prevention and Inference Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for OCD.
