Neuroscience has shown us having a witness to our story is powerful in the healing process. Our trauma comes from relationships and it will heal in relationships. This can be the beginning of discovering your story or it can be the missing piece you need to make sense of your story.
We offer couples, individual and family intensives.

All our clinicians work with the Neurophysiological Trauma Treatment (NPTT) approach. We blend NPTT with other modalities to fit your needs. Together we can choose between Individual Trauma Therapy, Couples therapy, EMDR, Neurodevelopmental assessments, and Somatic Experiencing to create a treatment plan that works for you.

The Neurophysiological Trauma Treatment is based on the research done by Stephen Porges, Dan Siegel, Bessel van der Kolk, Peter Levine, and Dr. Aline LaPierre and helps facilitate the healing of trauma through the lens of neuroscience.
Through somatic education, experientials, and practice sessions, you will learn how to help your clients move through unresolved issues and traumas.

Upcoming Events
Hi, I’m Kimberly Dunkin.
I’m glad you’re here.
14 Peaks was created during the pandemic as a resource for my clients. This grew into a thriving practice where we help others heal from trauma, using somatic interventions through the lens of neuroscience. Feel free to look around the site, as many of the resources I use in session are within these pages.
I believe God made us fascinating beings with the capacity to heal, and that sparked my interest in neurophysiology as a conduit to healing trauma.
I am passionate about bringing together neuroscience research and applying it practically to clients who suffer from PTSD, somatic issues, attachment issues, and particularly developmental trauma.
“The single most important issue for traumatized people is to find a sense of safety in their own bodies”

Why the name 14 Peaks?
The name comes from being on top of a fourteener (a mountain at 14,000 ft of elevation). At 14,000 ft breathing is labored making the journey hard AND it is incredibly beautiful. It is hard. Hard is not impossible.
This is not unlike the challenge we face in life. We can do really hard things but they are not impossible. When you reach that mountain top, it is beautiful and invigorating much like the top of a fourteener.
Additionally, it is freeing and life-giving at the top of a mountain. This is why the polyvagal chart on this website also ends in 14. It is meant to be 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. Typically we spend up to 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.
