Hi, I'm Jenny Yuzon, (MSW, RSW) with over 15 years of experience working with individuals in a wide range of settings.

As a Certified Brainspotting Therapist, I specialize in somatic, trauma-informed therapy for people that feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, over-responsibility, and self-doubt. This may show up as people pleasing, perfectionism or shut down mode. This is usually how the nervous system responds to hard experiences and tries to keep you safe even when the threat is gone. It wasn't until I began learning about the body's role in healing-through somatic psychology and trauma work-that things began to shift. I started noticing how old patterns not just lived in my thoughts, but in my posture, my physiological responses, and nervous system.

Through my own healing and professional training, I discovered that real change happens when we include the body in the conversation. This experience now shapes everything I do as a therapist. I can definitely "geek-out" on the nervous system and brain science because I know change is possible through the mind and body. I enjoy supporting others in finding these connections in themselves.

Due to my love of learning and curiosity, I attend ongoing training to continue supporting people in new ways. That's also how my own perfectionist part shows up and works with me:)
