I have a professional background in somatic and attachment psychotherapy with a focus on understanding the psychology of trauma and attachment-based injuries.
If you are living with the impacts of trauma, relationship breakdown, or a crisis of identity, you’re not alone. I have over a decade of experience helping individuals and couples with interpersonal trauma, anxiety, depression, abuse recovery, discrimination, loss of meaning in life, and uncertainties of purpose or identity. My work is psychodynamic, somatically-focused, and supports the psychological growth of clients. I want to help you get to the roots of problems and develop greater self-awareness in the process. I believe that long-term wellness ultimately stems from developing insight into the various patterns of our lives.

I have over 10 years of experience and specialize in anxiety, mood disorders, and substance use concerns using trauma-informed treatment. I view everyone as being made up of mind, body, and spirit. We all share common pains in life and these experiences (past and present) change us, which can lead to belief systems that perpetuate a limited perspective on who we can become. We are basically good and no person is "bad", but life traumas can shape us into identifying with a false version of ourselves. Coming to know your true self yields greater authenticity and freedom in life.

Are you waking up exhausted? You start your day tired. Maybe you’re feeling trapped by the mental load you carry and don't see any relief insight. Your important relationships are suffering and you’re either avoiding or snapping at everyone, making you even more stressed out and unhappy. It’s not unusual to feel like you’ve lost your way- whether at school, work, with your partner, at work or even in parenting. Now more than ever many people are finding themselves overwhelmed by the pressures and responsibilities of their day-to-day lives and just wanting to reconnect with their true selves.

Have you ever felt like you needed to do “more” or be “more” in order to feel like you are “enough?” Overwhelmed by guilt if you have needs of your own? Or believe if you did acknowledge YOU in relationships it could end in abandonment, disappointment or being alone? You may have learned to relate to yourself in this way for as long as you can remember and does not mean you are “broken” in need of being “fixed”. When we remove judgment and begin to see our “true self” through the lens of curiosity we get to reconnect with who we have always wanted to be but was too afraid to try.

Perhaps, a sudden event has happened in your life, leaving you feeling disoriented and confused. Your usual ways of coping are no longer working. You know things in your mind, but your body is reacting differently. By working with the nervous system, you will learn how to emotionally regulate and integrate past experiences so that they no longer control your life. You may be someone who 'feels off,' yet can't identify what it is. You know that you have gone through things in your life but think, "others have had it much worse." However, you are finally at a place where you want to feel better and sort out what that 'thing' is.

I can offer a level of understanding beyond being trauma-informed, as my personal history combined with my education in trauma can support you in gaining a deeper understanding of how your reactions make sense on a biological level and how we can tap into the mind-body connection to create new, healthier patterns so that the old ones may eventually fall away.

Is attachment-based therapy the same as attachment therapy?

Attachment-based therapy may be confused with what is called “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy”), a discredited and dangerous approach to treating children with attachment disorders, autism, or other mental health concerns. Attachment therapy—not attachment-based therapy—may involve restraining a child, forcing eye contact, and other coercive or abusive techniques. None of these practices are used in attachment-based therapy and the two modalities are in no way related.

What should I expect from attachment-based therapy?

Attachment-based therapy is based on attachment theory, which posits that children’s early relationships with their caregivers strongly influence their ability to navigate the world later in life. Thus, adults who seek attachment-based therapy should expect to deeply explore their childhood, identifying the dynamics or experiences that disrupted their attachment and the steps necessary to overcome challenges that arose as a result. Parents and children should expect to explore the possible factors that disrupted the parent-child relationship and work toward restoring trust and connection.

How long does attachment-based therapy last?

Certain forms of attachment-based therapy, especially those designed for parents and children, last for a set number of sessions; for example, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, a specific attachment-based approach for young children who have undergone early adversity, unfolds over 10 one-hour sessions. When attachment-based therapy is practiced on adults or combined with other modalities, it may not last a specific length of time; clients may wish to ask prospective therapists how long they expect treatment to take.

Does attachment-based therapy work?

Most of the research on attachment-based therapy focuses on children and adolescents. Some of this research shows a positive effect, especially for attachment-based family therapy (ABFT). Other studies, however, have found that attachment-based therapy is no more effective than other approaches to childhood depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Less is known about the therapy’s efficacy on adult populations.
