The best description of what I do after 30 years of success is that I am a stress management expert for ages 2 and up. After training together in family therapy and Child Centered Play Therapy (CCPT), my mother and I made our dream a reality and founded The Hamilton Practice in 1995. Working with survivors of childhood abuse and trauma in Harlem for a combined 17 years, we were stunned by the miracles that unfolded as we applied the powers of connection, insight, and humor. My mother left her body in 2021, so you will be seeing only me in front of you, but you will be benefiting from the wisdom and synergy of two generations.

Are you feeling disconnected, on edge, or just not like yourself during pregnancy, postpartum, or the early years of motherhood? Many of my clients don’t realize how much depression and anxiety has taken a toll on them until it feels too overwhelming. They’ve been balancing the demands of parenthood, work, and life, often without recognizing how deeply their mental health is affected. If this sounds like you—constantly juggling but feeling more and more weighed down by emotions —then you don’t have to keep going through it alone.

You are more than your current circumstance. All of us inevitably faces various life transitions, crises, and challenges that test our sense of satisfaction with life, our relationships with others, and our relationship with ourselves. Often our "unhappiness" takes the form of worry, confusion, sadness, hurt, betrayal, disappointment, frustration, and loneliness. Therapy is an avenue to help explore what you are going through and can provide an experience that is supportive, empowering, will make a difference in your life.

Unfortunately, I am not currently accepting new clients. Online therapy for women who are just trying to keep it all together. You've spent for as long as you can remember trying to balance it all, but it’s exhausting and you don’t think you can do it anymore. As far as anyone can tell, you’ve got a great life. You’re accomplished, driven, and dependable. But on the inside, you never feel good enough and the voice in your head is quick to remind you of all the ways you’re falling short. You're tired of giving so much to everyone else while you continue to come last on your list. Not anymore. It's time for a change.

The rug has been pulled out beneath you; your relationship is over. The life you once had is now gone and the future so uncertain. How could this have happened? Your emotional wounds so raw and painful.. it's hard to even get out of bed. The crying spells just can’t seem to stop no matter how hard you try to get through the day.

You can't help but be stuck in thoughts of the past and fears of the future;unable to be in the present moment. Lost and alone.

After personally breaking generational trauma and finding the skills needed to heal, I decided to become a therapist. I teach my clients to be able to do the same by identifying core experiences that may contribute to their reactions as well as thought processes and learning how to regulate one’s emotions to live their best life possible. Offering validity, empathy, empowerment, as well as understanding, will be at the forefront of the counseling experience to inspire cliental change and growth from within. Anxiety Disorders such as OCD, PTSD, and GAD, as well as ADHD and those diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

I first want to congratulate you for deciding to take this huge step!
Looking for a therapist is not as easy as you would expect it to be. Sometimes the connection is missing or the vibe does not feel right, which would lead to an unsuccessful experience with therapy. Whether you are experiencing grief, or anxiety, or have been feeling in a funk lately, therapy may be the perfect outlet for you to be able to voice these worries and concerns.

When the burden of carrying trauma and stress becomes too much, people often feel like life is out of control. These periods of personal struggle can be an opportunity for growth and hope instead of continued hurt and personal crisis. Talking to a therapist offers an avenue to understand what is happening to you and your relationships (ie. with loved ones, friends, family, and of course yourself). It is an experience that can help you feel listened to, understood, and help you find solutions to improve how you feel and live.

We all want to feel that we are in control, alive and balanced. The reality is we can get stuck, confused, and in need of help. Feelings of frustration, hurt, doubt, worry, sadness, self-blame, or loneliness can set in. In other words, we become “unhappy.” We want to feel that we have a choice. A choice that will make things better whether it is for ourselves, our relationship, or our children.

I draw on my postgraduate training in psychodynamic psychotherapy, HeartMath biofeedback training, Complicated Grief and in behavioral medicine from the Mind/Body Institute at Harvard Medical School to provide a personalized approach to helping people cope with life's challenges. Although I have a specialty in grief, loss and infertility, I see individuals, couples and young adults with a wide range of issues, from depression and loss to parenting difficulties, anger management and relationship stress. I guide patients through stress reduction, job and career transition, postpartum depression and other life changes.

Nobody could have prepared you for the pain of being in a high conflict or sexless marriage. Either you argue all the time or avoid difficult topics altogether because you know it won't end well. Your relationship feels like you are walking on eggshells and you are tired of discussions going nowhere. The resentment is building and you are beginning to ask yourself if this is the life you want anymore. To make matters worse, you have no active sex life. Does this sound familiar?
