Trauma focused therapy intensives and ongoing traditional therapy offered.

Many of my clients have experienced trauma, chronic stress, or relational wounds and feel stuck in survival mode long after the danger has passed. You may struggle with self-doubt, difficulty trusting your decisions, suppressed anger or guilt, and frustration that past therapy brought insight but not relief. You’re ready to feel calmer, trust yourself again, and experience real change, not just manage symptoms.

Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, grieving, or stuck in patterns you can’t break? Struggling to regulate your emotions after a traumatic event or a break-up? You’re not alone. Painful experiences don’t always fade with time — sometimes they stay stored in the body and show up as emotional reactivity, relationship struggles, or a constant sense of being on edge. You may have tried to hold everything together alone, but that can feel exhausting and discouraging. Therapy gives you a supportive space to slow down and understand what’s happening inside you as you process what’s been too heavy to carry all on your own.

FAQ - PMDD Counseling
How can Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) affect mental health?
Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) can have a significant impact on mental health. PMDD is a more severe form of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and may cause intense mood-related symptoms in the days or weeks before a period, such as mood swings, irritability, anxiety, sadness, hopelessness, or loss of interest in activities you normally enjoy. For some people, PMDD can also worsen existing mental health concerns, such as anxiety or depression. Symptoms may also affect relationships, work, or school responsibilities, especially when they happen consistently month after month.
How can therapy help with PMDD?
Therapy can help you better understand the emotional patterns that may come with PMDD and help you track symptoms across your cycle, identify triggers, and plan ahead for times when symptoms tend to peak. Therapy may also help you develop coping strategies for managing intense emotions, communicating with loved ones, and reducing the impact PMDD has on work, school, or relationships. Approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can be especially helpful for noticing unhelpful thought patterns and building more practical coping skills for responding to distress. PMDD is also commonly treated with medication or hormonal options, so a therapist may encourage you to coordinate with a medical provider if they feel this may be a helpful addition to therapy.
Can a therapist diagnose PMDD?
In many cases, licensed mental health professionals, including therapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists, can diagnose PMDD. PMDD can also be diagnosed by other medical professionals, such as a primary care physicians (PCPs) or obstetrician-gynecologists (OB-GYNs).
Should I see a therapist or a psychiatrist to help with PMDD?
Whether you should see a therapist or psychiatrist depends on what kind of support you need. A therapist can help with coping skills, emotional regulation, and general patterns of thinking that may make symptoms harder to manage. A psychiatrist, in contrast, can help assess whether medication may be helpful and prescribe it, when appropriate. Importantly, many people benefit from both therapy and psychiatry. For example, you might see a therapist for ongoing emotional support and a psychiatrist for medication or medical treatment. If you are not sure where to start, your primary care physician can often help you decide what treatment makes the most sense for you.
