I’m formally trained in treatment of anxiety/OCD, sex and relationships, narcissistic abuse recovery, and codependency, attachment, certified in complex trauma and grief.
You've spent so much of your life overperforming in relationships, trying to earn love, security, and worth. You’ve tried being “better,” doing more, and suppressing your own needs just to keep the peace. You're left exhausted, anxious, sometimes resentful, and unsure if love can exist without effort. You wonder if belonging really needs to be earned or if thats just trauma talking. Trying therapy probably feels both hopeful and overwhelming. What if you slow down or start saying "no" and everything falls apart? You want to exist as you are and still feel worthy and enough. You crave being loved in the deep way you love others.

Our therapists are certified or otherwise credentialed in complex trauma, grief, abuse recovery, adoption competence, racial trauma, relational anxiety/OCD, LGBTQIA+ issues, and more.
Some of us were shaped by relationships and families where love came with conditions, where truths were hidden, or where we had to trade our authenticity for survival. We may question where we belong, if love can exist without earning it, and whether our feelings are even valid. We’ve felt like a guest in our own story while carrying unseen grief. We may have adapted to sense danger where others see home. Trust hasn't felt safe. Belonging hasn't felt simple. In the wake of complex trauma, we may find that we perform “normalcy,” suppress our needs, and endlessly translate our world for others. This is exhausting and deeply lonely.

Domestic Abuse Therapists
What are the most effective ways to recover from domestic abuse?
Leaving an abusive relationship requires tremendous courage, so survivors in treatment should recognize that they have already completed the most important step. Still, the trauma of physical or emotional abuse can be difficult to process and overcome. Therapy can help survivors process trauma, grief, and difficult emotions, treat relevant mental health symptoms, and create a new framework for boundaries and relationships in the future. For some, support groups can also be an invaluable outlet for healing.
When should an individual seek help for domestic abuse?
Victims of intimate partner violence should seek help immediately. It can take substantial time, planning, energy, and courage to leave an abusive relationship, but starting the process—by seeking therapy, calling the domestic violence hotline, or simply confiding in a loved one—will help them get there. Those who have left abusive relationships but haven’t sought treatment can also greatly benefit from therapy to process and heal from the experience.
What are the consequences of staying in an abusive relationship?
Remaining in an abusive relationship has serious repercussions. In addition to the ongoing threat of physical danger and emotional abuse, research shows that intimate partner violence is associated with a range of mental health disorders including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and substance abuse. Therefore it’s important for individuals in an abusive relationship to seek help as soon as possible.
How can you get domestic abuse treatment for someone else?
It can be very complicated to identify and leave an abusive relationship; barriers include the threat of violence, financial instability, and family pressures. Those concerned about a loved one in an abusive relationship should talk to them about the situation, provide them with resources such as the domestic violence hotline, and introduce the idea of seeing a therapist due to their concern for the person’s safety and well-being.
