Utilizing an evidence-based treatment called Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I work with clients experiencing symptoms that arise as a result of trauma, abuse, and/or neglect.
Although I have specialized in trauma treatment over the past few years, I have had the privilege of helping clients with stress and anxiety, depression, grief and loss, self-esteem, relationship problems, and life transitions. My goal is to connect with clients and create a comfortable and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.

If you’ve survived a difficult past, you might feel disconnected from yourself or the world around you. Perhaps you’re overwhelmed by feelings or memories from the past. This can be devastating, taking over other areas of your life and relationships. Fortunately, there are approaches such as EMDR that not only help you feel like yourself again but also gain the confidence to pursue your dreams. I specialize in treating PTSD, whether it’s caused by sexual abuse, domestic violence, combat, or other difficult experiences. No matter what you’ve been through, you can get back to your life and put your past in the past.

Research indicates that women suffer from depression, anxiety, and eating disorders at disproportionate rates. Many women endure perhaps the most intense form of stress--interpersonal trauma ( e.g., rape, domestic violence, child abuse). An even larger proportion of women experience chronic high levels of stress, as they attempt to balance their responsibilities as professionals and their roles as mothers, wives, and daughters.

I also work with issues of trauma, substance abuse, co-dependence, and sexual concerns & identity.
I enjoy working collaboratively with clients to help them find greater fulfillment within the various aspects of their lives, whether it's their sense of self, interpersonal relationships, or professional life. A strong therapeutic relationship has the ability to heal, to empower, and to initiate lasting change. It can help guide you through life's challenges so that you emerge stronger and wiser. I work with adults, couples and adolescents, many of whom seek therapy simply because they are feeling "stressed out" or "not as happy" as they'd like, while others may be experiencing more significant symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Domestic Abuse Therapists
What are the most effective ways to recover from domestic abuse?
Leaving an abusive relationship requires tremendous courage, so survivors in treatment should recognize that they have already completed the most important step. Still, the trauma of physical or emotional abuse can be difficult to process and overcome. Therapy can help survivors process trauma, grief, and difficult emotions, treat relevant mental health symptoms, and create a new framework for boundaries and relationships in the future. For some, support groups can also be an invaluable outlet for healing.
When should an individual seek help for domestic abuse?
Victims of intimate partner violence should seek help immediately. It can take substantial time, planning, energy, and courage to leave an abusive relationship, but starting the process—by seeking therapy, calling the domestic violence hotline, or simply confiding in a loved one—will help them get there. Those who have left abusive relationships but haven’t sought treatment can also greatly benefit from therapy to process and heal from the experience.
What are the consequences of staying in an abusive relationship?
Remaining in an abusive relationship has serious repercussions. In addition to the ongoing threat of physical danger and emotional abuse, research shows that intimate partner violence is associated with a range of mental health disorders including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and substance abuse. Therefore it’s important for individuals in an abusive relationship to seek help as soon as possible.
How can you get domestic abuse treatment for someone else?
It can be very complicated to identify and leave an abusive relationship; barriers include the threat of violence, financial instability, and family pressures. Those concerned about a loved one in an abusive relationship should talk to them about the situation, provide them with resources such as the domestic violence hotline, and introduce the idea of seeing a therapist due to their concern for the person’s safety and well-being.
