Hard is not impossible.

At 14 Peaks, we believe true healing begins when the body feels safe.

Only when your nervous system is regulated can you feel truly seen, heard, and known. We exist to help you move out of survival and into connection. We begin with a simple but powerful question:

Who is this human before me? What makes this make sense?

What sets us apart is how we approach healing. We don’t just talk, we listen to the your body. By integrating both mind and body, we uncover how trauma is stored in your nervous system and guide you back toward a state of safety.

Instead of focusing on talk therapy, we offer something different, a neuroscience-based, integrative path to trauma resolution.

We help reset your stuck nervous system so that healing can begin not just in the brain, but in the body.

Ready to help your nervous system feel safe again?
Contact us today to schedule a consultation, and take the first step toward a regulated nervous system.

A neurophysiological assessment and treatment pathway for the nervous system

Dunkin NeuroMap™ helps identify patterns in how your nervous system responds to stress, safety, and recovery. The assessment allows therapy to be paced and tailored to what your system can tolerate right now. Instead of relying on symptoms alone.

Your results help your therapist choose the right starting point, sequence treatment, and track change over time. This helps therapy work better and more efficiently by reducing trial-and-error and guiding the next best step.

Dunkin NeuroMap™ doesn’t just guide your therapy sessions, it also includes a guided at-home plan to help you build nervous system skills between appointments. Practicing at home helps your nervous system “learn” through repetition, reinforcing new, healthier pathways.

We re-test at key points so you can see progress over time. This helps your therapist adjust your plan based on what’s improving and what still needs support, and it helps you know when you’re ready to move into the next phase. We don’t guess, we measure.

The NeuroMap™ Three-Phase Treatment Pathway

Phase 1: Stabilization

  • Learn tools to calm your body and mind

  • Build a sense of safety and steadiness inside your body

  • Create a strong container (body) before going deeper into your trauma

Phase 2: Engagement

  • Handle stress and big emotions with more ease

  • If connecting feels scary, you’ll learn safe, ways to connect

  • Stay more regulated in day-to-day life

Phase 3: Integration

  • Bounce back faster when life is stressful

  • Feel more flexible, connected, and confident in real situations

  • Strengthen lasting stability so progress sticks

“The single most important issue for traumatized people is to find a sense of safety in their own bodies”


-Bessel van der Kolk

Why the name 14 Peaks?

The name comes from the experience of being on top of a "fourteener" – a mountain at 14,000 feet of elevation. At this height, breathing becomes difficult, making the journey hard, yet incredibly beautiful. Hard is not impossible.

This parallels the challenges we face in life. We can tackle difficult tasks, and while they may seem daunting, they are not impossible. Reaching the top of the moutain is both beautiful and invigorating, much like the top of a fourteener.

Additionally, it is freeing and life-giving at the top of the mountain. This is why the polyvagal chart on this website ends at 14. It represents a playful, peaceful place for connection with nature and others.

Recently a Netflix documentary came out with the same name. The goal of Nims, a Neapalian climber, was to climb all fourteen peaks which are above 8,000m, at a world record pace. It is an incredible film that embodies the same reasons I chose the name 14 Peaks.

  • Therapists spend many hours outside of your scheduled session preparing. Therapists are legally obligated to take notes on every session, create a treatment plan, make a good faith estimate, and consult with treatment providers such as a psychiatrist. We may spend 30 minutes per client, per week, outside of session.

    At our practice, we often spend 5-6 hours a week obtaining new skills and certifications based on neuroscience findings. We study often to help our clients heal in the best and most effective way possible.

    Suppose we are unfamiliar with a case or diagnosis and it is within our scope of practice. In that case, we will case consult, research, and seek certifications to be the best clinician possible.

    We strive to be very effective therapists. The more we study, the more effective is therapy, thus shortening treatment times.

    Therapist fees increase when they receive a new certification, a licensure change or are trained in a new modality. This makes each session more effective for clients. Therapists often train on the weekends and in between sessions. Certifications in a new modality often cost the clinician up to $15,000. We feel it is worth it as it helps the clients, which is our ultimate goal.

“Trauma is a fact of life. It does not however have to be a life sentence.”
