I specialize in the treatment of trauma, anxiety, depression, and recovery from abusive situations. I provide a safe and supportive space to deepen self-awareness and foster self-compassion. If you are experiencing difficulty with traumatic memories, life transitions, emotional turmoil, relational conflict, or issues pertaining to gender/sexuality, I can help you towards growth and healing. We will explore your personal narrative within the context of time and place, family and culture, actions and reactions, to cultivate your emotional well-being.
I treat adults and couples, specializing in the treatment of acute, lifelong, and intergenerational trauma, and recovery from high-control groups and narcissistic abuse. My approach is trauma-informed and psychodynamic. I am certified in Trauma Therapy through a 2-year post-graduate clinical training from The Institute of Contemporary Psychotherapy in NYC.
It takes incredible bravery to look at yourself in the mirror, and more importantly, to treat yourself with kindness. If you want to talk, please email me to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation.

I work with clients to recover from trauma, narcissistic abuse, and coercive control. During our initial sessions I will provide psychoeducation on trauma treatment, as we begin to explore your origin story. We will focus on the amelioration of symptoms through the practice of coping skills, developing self care routines, and gradually processing trauma in a safe and supportive space.
