About Us

Lucas Brewer, MS, LPCC-S , BSP, SSP

Licensed Professional Counselor

"The hardest part of therapy is being seen in your pain. The best part of therapy is realizing you are worthy of Love."

My goal is to help clients trust what they are feeling is real and that it matters. Once we build that trust, then we are better able to explore old wounds and traumas. Releasing stuck emotions and old narratives, making room for new possibilities. My practice is rooted in Brainspotting and guided by parts work / polyvagal theory. I work with Veterans, First-Line Responders, Counselors as well as Clients with PTSD, C-PTSD, DID and Attachment wounds. If you have struggled with motivation or feel as though life is heavy / not fulfilling my system is able to bring in energy and clear the fog that may be clouding your way forward.

The modalities I use can help clients reorganize trauma in the body, to make room for hope, possibility and expansion. I help clients connect with their internal witness. With that connection clients are able to provide light and love to the darkest parts of self. This type of work is especially powerful for childhood wounds and encapsulated traumas.

I am a therapist, a husband, a parent, a veteran, a teacher, a helper and a neighbor. I'm passionate about the human experience. I am honored that I am able to witness others as they overcome hardships and become more than they thought possible. I listen because it's important.

Somatic Therapist

 I am a Somatic Therapist (non-clinical) Licensed Massage Therapist, and Reiki Master Therapist specializing in somatic processing, nervous system support, and embodiment. I have been in private practice for 13 years.

I specialize in teaching clients how to develop and enhance their somatic listening skills so that they can tend to their own bodies and emotions with compassion and support. Using a Polyvagal therapeutic approach and trauma-informed approaches, I teach clients how to manage overwhelm and shut down in the body.

I believe the body holds our unprocessed stories - our grief, our resilience, our identities, our unmet needs, and the truths we’ve carried for years without language. In my practice, these embodied narratives become doorways into healing. As your system settles into greater support and regulation, the deeper work of unwinding old patterns, releasing constriction, and integrating new possibilities naturally begins to unfold.

My background weaves together training in Somatic Experiencing®, Craniosacral Therapy, Integrated Somatic Psychology™, Brainspotting, Therapeutic Massage, Reiki, vibrational and sound healing, ancestral work, nature-based practices, and embodiment techniques. I have completed the Advanced Year of Dr. Peter Levine’s Somatic Experiencing® Trauma Resolution Program, along with extensive training in touch therapies and energy-based modalities. In 2023, I traveled to Peru for healer-initiation work with Andean shamans and wisdom keepers from the Inkan Solar School.

Before transitioning fully into somatic and embodiment work, I spent several years in Chiropractic Orthopedics as a Physical Therapy Assistant and held an Ohio X-ray license. This foundation gives me a strong understanding of musculoskeletal patterns, injury recovery, and body mechanics, which informs the way I support clients through both physical and emotional healing processes.

Somatic Experiencing® principles inform every session, whether we’re working on the treatment table or in the chair. In addition, I use various tools of nurturing to help your nervous system rest so that you can begin to feel more regulated. As your body settles into experiences of support and safety, we can begin the deeper work of gently releasing excess and outdated energy that’s been keeping you ‘stuck’. Together, we use gentle co-regulation, sensory awareness, and nervous-system tracking to create space for your body to soften, reorganize, and return to its innate capacity for balance.

Tools and Modalities I may incorporate include:

• Somatic Experiencing ® techniques (also called, SE)

Who I work with:

I work best with clients who are drawn to a relational, body-based approach to healing. My work is well-suited for deep feelers, intuitives, sensitives, and reflective individuals who feel nourished by presence, attunement, gentleness, and emotional depth. My work is ideal for those seeking inner coherence, nervous-system support, and embodied integration rather than diagnosis or traditional talk therapy.

Please note: My role is non-clinical and rooted in Somatics, Polyvagal Theory (nervous-system awareness), and embodied integration. My work is not a good fit for those who need strongly structured sessions, behavioral strategies, clinical mental-health care, or high levels of predictability. If you’re looking for diagnosis, licensed mental health treatment, crisis support, or a clinical treatment plan, I can offer referrals to licensed professionals who specialize in that level of care.
