Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Lawrence, NY

If you are struggling with anxiety, panic attacks, OCD, depression, or trauma related symptoms you will find relief in a safe and empathetic environment using evidence based treatments.

Everyone needs a little help to think about their situation, and a listening ear inviting them to express what they have not yet been able to articulate. You are not alone in feeling at times overwhelmed, sad, or anxious. My goal is to help you work through whatever difficulties you are having in a safe and supportive atmosphere. I believe that therapy is for everybody whether you are looking to grow or explore, improve your relationships with loved ones, or whether you are trying to overcome a crisis or a mental health issue that prevents you from enjoying life fully.

Congratulations! You’ve made the courageous decision to search for something new. My approach to psychotherapy is experiential and relational. I believe that we hold within us everything we need for recovery and expansion and that a genuine and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship offers the context for healing, exploration, and growth. My clients describe feeling gotten and empowered by me. Psychotherapy with me is like traditional talking therapy. And also quite different. We won’t just talk about the bad experiences you’ve had. We’ll also cultivate new ones and help you consolidate the "new you" that will slowly emerge.

For more than a decade, I've worked with individuals and couples in crisis due to infidelity, abusive relationships and recent loss.

As a trauma-informed MFT, I believe our past experiences impact the way we form our identity and relate to each other in the present. As a Christian therapist, I integrate spirituality with IFS, EMDR and the Gottman Method.

My clients will have a space where they can be themselves and will begin the process of understanding, accepting, and valuing themselves.
