My Story
Hi, I’m Sami Kirschbaum (APSW/ LMSW)
I’m so excited you are here!
As a Certified Brainspotting Practitioner and Wellness Coach, I empower clients to become the CEOs of their life, which absolutely includes their health.
I am a chronic Lyme disease warrior of over 14 years! I also have had a difficult battle with mold illness. At my worst, I was bedridden experiencing temporary blindness, collapsing, short-term memory loss, chronic migraines and 50 more symptoms. Lyme and mold illness took my physical health, social life, cognitive function, career, and even my home away from me. These serious health concerns were detrimental to my relationships and mental health. A heartbreaking story which may sound similar to you.
As a passionate woman who will not stand for injustice, I wouldn’t back down from the medical dismissal I received. I traveled in the US and abroad for over 5 dozen different treatments, spending more than $200,000 on regaining my health. My Lyme treatment at Klinik St. Georg, in Germany was successful and today I am back to chasing my dreams. An essential aspect of my healing and what provided me extra confidence in my ability to heal was directly from receiving Brainspotting myself. I was able to process all that has happened to me, traumas keeping my body in dysregulation, and expand into the future I desired. Since the return of my health, I have revolutionized my career path, dedicating my future to improving the social and mental health wellness within our community. I have integrated my personal experiences with chronic illness, formal mental health education, and my soul’s purpose to help others, to create an offering that is truly life changing. I became the person I wish I had when my health was at it’s worst.
Today I support clients in the release of emotional, somatic, and spiritual burdens through a highly effective limbic brain reprocessing modality. Through Brainspotting and wellness consulting services, clients who work with me can rewire negative programming that they have obtained throughout their childhood and adult experiences, achieve targeted wellness goals, join a positive community, and step into their full potential fearlessly.
One’s journey to emotional, physical, and spiritual healing is extremely unique. This is why I conduct a revolutionized, comprehensive intake with clients and curate an individualized plan for them during our time together.
What sets me apart from other coaches?
I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work and have previously worked as a mental health therapist. My educational background in sociology and social work has given me invaluable knowledge and a unique perspective to guide others on their journey to improved health in the most ethical ways.
In addition to completing my certification in Brainspotting through the required trainings, I’ve also invested in advanced specialty trainings to offer the highest quality service to my clients. These include Brainspotting with Groups, Bodyspotting, Performance Goals with David Grand, Brainspotting with Children & Adolescents, Brainspotting to Heal Shame, Imposter Syndrome & Self-Esteem, Expansion Brainspotting, and more.
I believe that we are most inspired by those who practice what they teach. I prioritize a healthy lifestyle every day, focusing on movement, detox, diet, stress reduction, sleep hygiene, social time, and self-care. I know that the best way to show up for my clients is to be the best version of myself.
To continually expand my knowledge and enhance my clients’ experience, I actively participate in multiple consultation groups with mental health practitioners and healers.
I can’t wait to meet you!
