I am a very experienced trauma therapist, specializing in treating young adults suffering from PTSD, abuse in narcissistic relationships, codependency, break ups, anxiety, depression, LGBTQ issues, divorce, and work place problems, using cognitive behavioral work, EMDR and IFS. My approach is eclectic and interactive, blending a combination of techniques. Non-judgment and warmth in a holistic frame describes my style. I also am trained in ADHD coaching, NLP, hypnosis, and other modalities designed for you to develop better coping skills. This is not a cookie cutter approach. It is a treatment custom made to meet your needs.
Please check out my website: luciennedespota.com for more about my training and background. I offer a free 30 minute consultation to answer any questions and help you to get to know me. Please email me to set this up . I will get back to you in less than 24 hours. I will help you to get unstuck and feel more in control of your life.
Additional training: I hold certificates from two well known NYC post-graduate psychotherapy/psychoanalysis training institutes where I trained at the start of my career. I also completed training in EMDR for PTSD, in addition to ADHD Coaching, NLP, and hypnosis. Spirituality is a part of my training and value system but not a requirement for your therapy.

As a trauma therapist focused on narcissistic abuse, I prefer using a combination of "EMDR" both virtual and in person, with Richard Schwartz's IFS/Parts Work. In addition I utilize Integrative Hypnosis, Neuro Linguistic Programming,(NLP), Breath Work and Mindfulness, I incorporate spirituality in to my practice when appropriate and requested. My work is highly interactive.
