It’s so easy to get caught in the pace of life in DC that you end up in constant survival mode. When that happens, taking care of yourself - your wellness and real, sustainable, deep healing - can get pushed to the back burner. There’s just never a "good time" to address the bad habits and negative cycles keeping you stuck. The truth is, managing daily stress and anxiety only goes so far if deeper trauma stays untouched. As an NYU-trained therapist with 25 years in psychology, I help people break that loop and get unstuck by addressing the deeper issues underneath. Together, we can restore your balance, peace, and purpose.
We can work together in two ways: weekly therapy for steady, deep healing, or a targeted 8-week protocol to help you get unstuck by using brain-body therapies like IFS, Brainspotting, or EMDR. Together we get past surface talk to address the root causes keeping you in survival mode—giving you the clarity and relief you need to move forward with lasting peace
Taking time for yourself is a big step, but you don't have to stay stuck or carry this alone. When you're ready, I invite you to reach out. I personally respond to all messages within 48 hours, and we can usually schedule your first session that same week. You deserve a space to heal and create lasting change through addressing the core issue.
