Starting therapy takes courage, and I strive to create a safe, compassionate space for growth. My ideal client feels stuck—struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions—seeking clarity, relief, and self-understanding. They long to break unhelpful patterns, build confidence, and cultivate healthier relationships. Using an integrative, client-centered approach, I help them navigate challenges, develop coping tools, and foster self-compassion. My goal is to empower clients to move from struggle to fulfillment, embracing a more authentic and balanced life.

Greta is a passionate therapist who provides an authentic, honest and trusting space where life's experiences can be shared. I work from the biopsychosocial model of health, which is essentially looking at how our biology (for example, genetics, physiology, physical injury), psychological factors (for example, emotions, beliefs, temperament), social factors (for example, cultural background, social support, family dynamics) interact.

As a psychotherapist with over 25 years of experience, I focus on helping individuals and couples navigate the challenging terrain of relational trauma, abuse recovery, and relationship transformation. My approach integrates deep psychological work with practical strategies for healing and growth, drawing upon psychoanalytic understanding, EMDR trauma processing, dream analysis, and body-based awareness. Relational trauma can emerge from various experiences, including narcissistic abuse, family estrangement, workplace psychological abuse, and toxic relationship patterns. These experiences often leave deep emotional wounds.

Sleep or Insomnia Therapists
How effective is treatment for insomnia?
The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.

Are there specific medications for sleep problems?
There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.

Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?
There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.

What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?
Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
