I specialize in working with women and teen girls with past/present trauma. Living as a trauma survivor is not easy and can be exhausting. Does anxiety and depression seem to control your life or preventing you from pursuing your goals? Are you struggling with adverse childhood trauma? Are your relationships affected? Trauma is a complex and unique experience for each individual. You are not the same person you once were. I believe everyone deserves a safe and supportive space to work through life's challenges. It is understood that seeking therapy can be a difficult decision, but I am here to support you every step of the way.

I use a trauma informed approach that gets to the root of the issues rather than simply managing symptoms.
Are you a young to middle aged adult that gives and caters to others yet feels lost from your own life’s purpose? Do you set meaningful goals but stay stuck in procrastination? Does high anxiety drive self-sabotaging behaviors of over eating, drinking, and screen time? You love the people in your life yet feel unseen or find yourself in a toxic relationship you keep hoping will change. Experiences in our past such as childhood neglect, shaming, bullying, a divorced or conflict in the home, loss of a loved one or other adverse events have a lasting negative impact on our lives today.

As a trauma psychologist, I take a “big T” approach to trauma, which means that I view trauma broadly with more flexible boundaries than how others may.
Two words: life happens! Therapy helps us live more purposeful, self-aware lives. There is nothing sweeter, to me, than healing trauma and breaking chains. Trauma seeps through many aspects of our lives, and if we're not careful, can drastically alter our response to the world around us. It is important to move toward existing in the world the way we choose to exist, not what's projected onto us. Also, life happens in the context of relationships; therefore, couples therapy sets my soul ablaze. Couples seeking to grow or overcome obstacles is incredibly intimate work. I am honored to walk alongside and help heal your covenant.

Trauma and PTSD Therapists

When should I seek treatment for trauma?

Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.

How long does trauma therapy take?

Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.

What happens if trauma is left untreated?

Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.

Can PTSD come back after treatment?

It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
