Therapeutic Approach

Dr. Van Brunt’s client’s would describe her as warm and inviting, while also being direct and honest. Dr. Van Brunt uses a variety of approaches based on client needs, but generally focuses on how previous experiences create problematic patterns and responses in one’s present life.  When working with ADHD she helps clients to better understand their unique brain chemistry and helps to improve coping based on that.  She also often uses EMDR as a tool in her work, along with strategies inspired by the Internal Family Systems framework.
