IPNB THERAPY
Available in Florida, Virginia, Washington D.C.
Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) therapy is a holistic approach to mental health that recognizes the interconnectedness of the brain, body, and relationships. This type of therapy helps individuals understand how their brain development and functioning are shaped by their relationships with others, and how these relationships can influence their overall well-being.
IPNB therapy helps individuals gain insight into their patterns of thinking and behavior, and empowers them to make positive changes in their lives.
Interpersonal neurobiology (IPNB) is a scientific approach to understanding how the brain and mind develop and function in the context of relationships. This field of study is heavily rooted in attachment theory, which explores how our early relationships with caregivers shape the development of our brains and our overall well-being.
At its core, IPNB seeks to help individuals develop a healthy mind, an integrated brain, and compassionate, empathic relationships. By exploring the interplay between genes and environment, IPNB therapists can help clients and patients gain insight into their patterns of thinking and behavior, and empower them to make positive changes in their lives.
Interpersonal Neurobiology can assist with the following...
Lacking positive relationships
It can be challenging to connect with others and have positive social interactions. Negative or harmful interactions with others may cause further distress.
Feeling Unsafe
Feeling unsafe may result in fear or vulnerability that arises when an individual perceives a threat to their physical or emotional well-being.
Difficulty trusting others
Lack of confidence or belief in the reliability, honesty, or integrity of other people, which can make it challenging to form and maintain healthy relationships.
Past Trauma
Past trauma can cause emotional and psychological distress, altering brain function and development, and shaping thoughts, behaviors, and relationships.
Emotional Distress
Mental or emotional suffering that is caused by difficult or overwhelming emotions, such as anxiety, fear, sadness, or frustration.
Isolation from others
Separated or cut off from others, which can lead to feelings of loneliness, isolation, and social isolation.
The ultimate goal of interpersonal neurobiology (IPNB) is to help individuals cultivate a healthy mind, an integrated brain, and compassionate, empathic relationships. This holistic approach works to understand the complex interplay between the brain, body, and relationships, and seeks to empower clients and patients to make positive changes in their lives.
IPNB also helps with:
Past trauma
Anxiety, stress, fear
Poor communication skills

Attachment Issues

As a therapist trained in interpersonal neurobiology, I work to create a safe and supportive environment for my clients. This involves demonstrating vulnerability through open and honest communication, and helping clients move beyond simply discussing their experiences to actively engaging in emotional exchange in the present moment. By creating an atmosphere of emotional safety and fostering a sense of connection and understanding, I aim to help my clients heal, grow, and thrive.
Imagine a life where you can...
Learn to trust
Form healthy, meaningful relationships, which can provide emotional support, improve mental health, and enhance overall well-being.
Make Healthy Connections
Create a sense of belonging and connection, emotional support, and the opportunity to engage in healthy behaviors.
Heal from Trauma
Cope with the emotional and psychological effects of traumatic experiences, and move forward in your life with a sense of resilience and strength.
If you are struggling with connecting with others, past trauma, anxiety or stress, interpersonal neurobiology (IPNB) may be a helpful treatment option for you.
Develop a deeper understanding of the connections between your brain, relationships, and mental health to provide you with the tools and skills to improve your well-being and resilience.

I have been struggling to bring myself to therapy for several years. Starting and finding a therapist can be very exhausting and scary process but Nicole was super approachable, upfront, and made me feel at ease about my decision. While I am still early in the process and have had a few sessions, starting was well worth it and Nicole has been really helpful on my journey.
I’m so glad I came across Amplify during my search for a new therapist. I just wanted a new perspective on life and to work through my personal struggles and Nicole was so easy to talk to. She was solution focused and her great sense of humor made me feel right at home. I feel like i finally gained the strength to work through past and present challenges. Its nice to know that she is just as committed as i am to making sure my mental health experience is flexible yet progressive.
I’ve been working with Nicole for few months now and all I have to say is she is truly amazing! She really listens to what I say and shows empathy towards my feelings. Throughout the whole process of self discovery, Nicole hasn’t pressured me and allowed me to choose the journey I want to take. I love working with Nicole and I have no plans of stopping any time soon!
