High-Achieving Professionals Attachment Trauma & Anxiety — I work with high-achieving professionals who appear successful on the outside but struggle internally with anxiety, relationship difficulties, and the lasting effects of childhood trauma. Many are adult children of emotionally immature or abusive parents and may have histories of emotional, physical, or sexual abuse. In therapy, we focus on understanding how early attachment experiences shaped current patterns and develop new ways of relating to yourself and others that support greater emotional security, authenticity, and lasting change.

My practice optimizes life. To me, life is about thriving and not just symptom management because I care about my patients like I care about my family. I use psychiatry to assess your unique chemical, biological, and behavioral dynamics that contribute to how you function today via occasional lab testing, discussion of your history, supports, stressors, coping skills, and more. Together we decide what up-to-date research, evidence based medicine, or natural interventions to put to work for your best potential. We bolster appointments and treatment outcomes with spiritual support and prayer per your preference.

For the past 14 years, I have helped people of all ages, from many different communities, work through hard parts of life. I often work with adults who have lived through trauma and who grew up in tough family situations. I also work with DID and other dissociation experiences. I help clients make sense of trauma reactions, including feeling spaced out, shame, and guilt. My goal is to help people build healthier relationships with family and loved ones, and to feel safe in those relationships. As a therapist, I aim to be open-minded and to create a space where you feel safe and at ease talking about your life story.

You might find yourself overthinking, expecting the worst, or being hard on yourself. Maybe you feel unmotivated, disconnected, or out of balance in your daily life. You don’t have to manage it alone. Therapy can help you build practical tools, shift unhelpful patterns, and feel more like yourself again—one step at a time.

My ideal client is someone navigating a significant life transition or feeling weighed down by the "heavy fog" of complex trauma, substance use, or chronic anxiety. They are often individuals who have faced systemic challenges or deep-seated family dynamics and are now looking for more than just a quick fix; they need a safe harbor to process their past. They want to break cycles—whether that’s the cycle of addiction, the grip of OCD, or the shadow of domestic violence—because they are ready to reclaim their sense of self and build a future rooted in resilience and personal autonomy.

Dissociative Disorders (DID) Therapists
How does therapy for dissociative disorders work?
Dissociation may be triggered by stress or other upsetting circumstances, and therapy can address the traumatic events at the core of an individual’s dissociation. Understanding why a person may dissociate can help the therapist and the individual come up with alternative methods of coping. A person with a dissociative disorder may get stuck on negative thinking, for example, and treatment like Cognitive behavioral therapy is a gold standard for breaking such thinking. And dialectical behavior therapy, for example, can help a person manage their anguish through better emotion regulation.

Which therapies are best for dissociative disorders?
Specific approaches used by professionals include cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, psychodynamic, schema therapies, among others. Cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies are two widely used therapies that can help individuals with painful memories and past traumas. These therapies work to integrate an individual's different identities into one person.

Are there specific medications for dissociation?
There are no specific medications prescribed for dissociative disorders. However, psychosis, depression, anxiety, and/or panic often co-occur in dissociative disorders. A psychiatrist may prescribe medications for any accompanying symptom—which may include antipsychotics like aripiprazole, antidepressants like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or anti-anxiety drugs like benzodiazepines.

How often and how long are therapy sessions?
Like any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual. Patients may see improvement within 15 to 20 sessions, at an average of 50 minutes per session, others may opt for 20 to 30 sessions over, perhaps, a six-month period. There are still other patients, especially those who have co-occurring conditions like depression and anxiety, who may need to continue sessions for up to 12 to 18 months.
