For over 14 years my passion has been "people” and helping them to get to the core of who they are. In keeping a customer service approach and coupling it with a mental health and a trauma focused lens, my modality of choice for intervention is from the Humanistic Paradigm- I will meet you where you are and then we work from there. Trauma hinders our progress whether the exposure is miniscule, extensive or somewhere in-between. Unless we can identify and understand this impact one cannot start moving towards healing. Let’s start this journey together and explore through appropriate intervention that is designed to meet your needs.

Life can be challenging and at times even painful - preventing you from achieving your goals, feeling whole, or living to your fullest potential. It can also be very isolating at times, leaving you unsure if you can turn to someone for help and questioning whether there is someone who would understand. You don’t have to navigate these challenges alone. I strongly believe in being present and listening with intention while meeting with clients, as oftentimes people don’t feel heard or are misunderstood, and this is a crucial key towards healing.

These experiences could indicate that you have been a victim of coercive control, sometimes referred to as narcissistic abuse, a type of relational abuse that is increasingly common. If so, you are not alone. If so, you are likely in need of support, education and help in healing from betrayal trauma.

Have you contemplated cheating or divorce to solve the loneliness and regret? I can help! I enjoy sitting with couples as they sort through the tough stuff.
Why do we keep arguing about the same things over and over again? I've tried to forgive you but I can't stop thinking that I would be happier with someone else. I don't know if it's worth the fight anymore. We've grown apart and I don't remember the last time we've experienced real connection, maybe you've never even loved me. I'm insecure and doubtful that things will change. Everyone says I deserve better. I'm not sure where we are anymore and I need support getting back to love. I just need a safe space without judgement to be vulnerable and say the things that I'm really feeling. Have you found yourself asking these questions?

Divorce Therapists

How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?

Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.

What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?

There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.

When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?

When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.

How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?

It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
