Emotion-Sensation Feeling Wheel; an image showing three inset circles. The inner wheel is basic emotions- happy, sad, disgust, etc- the middle circle contains feeling words- despair, disappointment, awe, etc. The outer circle contains words that describe a sensation that someone might feel in their body if they were feeling the corresponding emotion.

I’m Lindsay.

I’m an artist, therapist, educator, and visual translator working to help make mental health education accessible to everyone.

As I doodled my way through a Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology, I discovered that the way I visualize information is a little different. With practice and encouragement, I found my niche as a mental health illustrator. Learn more about me and my work with other creatives.

Fight, Flight, & Freeze Embodied Wheel – A Resource for Growing Window of Tolerance

November 13, 2023

Image of a vibrant, multi-layered rainbow that has clouds on each end, one light grey and the other dark grey. The background of the image is two-toned: light blue on the left side and dark blue on the right side. Beneath the rainbow is written, "Window of Tolerance and Addictive Behavior." The rainbow has text written in various spots, showing where on the rainbow a person may fall in their window of tolerance. The top/center of the rainbow is labeled, "Able to cope, grow, listen, and learn." On the left side of the rainbow, the labels continue down the curve: "Feeling great!" "Maybe 'too' good." "Overwhelmed by the positive emotion." "Feelings of doubt or unworthiness *or* overconfidence." The last label sits right above the grey cloud at the bottom and reads, "Relapse." On the right side of the rainbow, the labels continue down the curve: "This is mildly uncomfortable." "Ok, this feeling really sucks." "Overwhelmed coping skills." "Feeling out of control." The last label sits right above the grey cloud at the bottom and reads, "Relapse." Image created by Lindsay Braman.

We’re all visual thinkers.

From our earliest moments, we learn about ourselves, others, and the world around us through visual cues. I believe art can help make mental health education more accessible- and that accessible resources are a step towards making connections, demystifying therapy, and helping us all care a little better for ourselves and others.
