Our Story


Who is Becky Anderson? (Founder and Owner) 

Born with a sensitive heart and strong empathetic abilities, Becky found herself dysregulated, confused, and in pain (emotional and physical) quite often. This led her to a journey of seeking out help from a variety of providers. Through the ups and downs of her healing, she found some modalities were actually masking her symptoms or causing other symptoms rather than healing them. Soon she realized how hard she was working to just maintain an appearance of regulation (managing her symptoms) without deep-core healing. She found herself torn between two worlds: alternative medicine and allopathic/western medicine. She then discovered modalities and practices that incorporated both worlds and trusted human's innate abilities of the mind and body to restore. Her goal now is to continue to better herself so as to better humanity. The focus of her therapies is to restore balance and fluidity to bodies, minds, and spirits.

She has worked in clinics, residential treatment, group homes, fitness centers, and insurance companies, and now owns her own business where she can truly incorporate holistic and integrative modalities. She moved her business from her home office and shared collaborative to a Yoga Studio where she, herself, is supported and can practice self-care by attending yoga classes in a welcoming, stress-free environment.


Because this world is all we have

"As a therapist, I won't try to fix you. Give you advice. Tell you what to do. Pretend I know more about you than you do. Assume what is best for you. Have all the answers. Make the hard stuff go away. As a therapist, I will remind you that you aren't broken. Give you room to access your own wisdom. Support you in figuring out what to do. Recognize that you are the expert on your own life. Remember that only you know what is best for you. Honor that I don't know it all. Collaborate with you on how to make the hard stuff easier to sit with." By Lisa Olivera


Mind Body Mirror Theory

When troubled in our mind, our body is also troubled, and vice versa. Stress is held in the body and the body's memory of that stress/trauma. When we recall a stressful or traumatic memory, our nervous system, skin, stomach, body sensations, muscles, bones, and connective tissue/fascia are all "reliving" the event. Our body tissues store these memories, and they are therefore affected. Our mind/brain can then misinterpret or have biased/distorted meaning-making of the stress/trauma along with being disconnected from the body which leads to mental health and physical symptoms and diagnoses. "Providers who specialize in a single body system or category of symptoms risk overlooking the dynamics between systems, as well as the underlying dysregulation that may be critical to understanding the client's whole-body, whole-person experience". (The Tao of Trauma). With this belief and understanding, Mind Body Mirror brings decades of knowledge and experience in public health, counseling, trauma-responsive therapies, nutrition, shamanism, energy healing, fascia bodywork/touch therapies, meditation, and ancient healing practices.
