C-PTSD is a bit like this: Imagine you grew up in a house filled with ghosts. Their presence was palpable and they inconsistently, yet consistently, came out to scare you. You worry they followed you out of your childhood and into your adult world because you just can't stop trying to find them before they get you first. You still see them sometimes, but you can't name them, and you fear no one else will believe you if you tell them they exist. If your stomach just dropped or you felt vaguely seen in this analogy, you may know the experience of living with complex trauma. If you are looking for a ghostbuster, I am your clinician.

On paper, your life might look exactly how it’s supposed to. But internally, you feel off. Disconnected. Burnt out. Or quietly aware that something in the way you’re living just isn’t sustainable anymore.
For many, this shows up as a slow erosion rather than a clear breaking point. Motivation drops. Things that used to feel manageable start to feel heavy. And despite everything you’re doing to hold it together, there’s a growing sense that it’s not working in the same way it used to.
I work with high-achieving individuals who are used to holding everything together, but are exhausted from carrying too much for too long.

Do you struggle with overthinking, self doubt, low self esteem or lacking trust in yourself? Do you often feel like an "imposter" and feel like everyone else knows exactly what they are doing but you feel lost? Are you a perfectionist who never feels good enough or like you are never accomplishing enough? Do feelings of low self confidence hinder you from believing in yourself and trusting your abilities? These are often signs of anxiety arising and keeping us stuck and unhappy.

It's not easy being a kid. Maybe something happened. Something that changed everything, broke parts of your world. Maybe nothing happened, and big feelings just bubble up inside you - or explode out of you - and you don’t know why. You might not want to talk about it, or even know how. That’s ok. There are other ways to find your way through tough times. Playing can be a language you use to show someone what the world is like for you. You might not even know you’re doing it. But when you get to play just how you need with someone who understands, it can be very special.

A lot of people who reach out to me have never done therapy before and aren't sure where to start. Some have been carrying something alone longer than they'd like. Others just know something needs to change but can't quite name what. You don't have to have it figured out before you reach out. I work with people at all kinds of starting points, those in the middle of something hard, those facing a decision they can't stop thinking about, and those who are still figuring out what they even need. Whatever brought you here, you're in the right place.

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.
