Do you have childhood trauma? Do those emotionally painful experiences affect you as an adult? Do you push intense feelings or memories away to avoid pain? Do you find yourself in relationships where your deepest needs are not met? If these questions resonate with you, know that you’re not alone. I’m passionate about working with individuals who have had complicated childhoods. I offer my warmth, curiosity, compassion and active presence in providing a safe space to access and explore deep-rooted hurtful experiences. This process can help you heal from emotional pain and improve your relationship with yourself and with others.
I'm a licensed psychologist in FL & CA, utilizing trauma-informed psychodynamic, relational, attachment, parts work and somatic models. I specialize in treating childhood trauma - emotional, physical and sexual abuse, neglect, grief, relationship issues, narcissistic abuse, anxiety, depression and spiritual conflicts. I work with adults, couples and teens.
I understand that starting therapy can be anxiety provoking. Therefore, I provide a 15-20 minute free phone consultation for you to get a sense of how I work and ask any questions you may have. I believe that having the right fit with your therapist is a very important part of your healing process. You're welcome to give me a call when you're ready.
