About My Clients
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults navigate the complexities of life, particularly when it comes to overcoming trauma or stressful life experiences. My ideal client is someone ready to break free from the impacts of past trauma; whether it is getting unstuck from paralyzing shame, beliefs of not good enough or tendency to prioritize everyone else's needs over your own. We will make sense of it together and help you reconnect with your sense of self, and what is meaningful to you.
My Background and Approach
I am passionate about supporting individuals who have experienced trauma to process feelings such as grief, shame, anger, and fear, which can hold them back from becoming their true selves. My approach is relational, warm, and affirming, prioritizing a safe, confidential space where you feel seen, heard, and understood. I aim to help you feel safe in your body and rebuild trust in relationships, starting with ours. I bring my humanness, unconditional positive regard, and humor to our sessions. Together, we'll prioritize what matters most to you as we work towards your empowered self. I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to release emotions stuck in your nervous system following trauma. I also use Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and psychodynamic techniques to tailor your therapy.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Harmful experiences often occur in relationships, but a nurturing therapeutic relationship can foster profound growth and healing. Your past experiences and ingrained beliefs don’t have to define you. Together, we’ll make sense of beliefs like "I am broken" or "I am not enough" and help you reclaim your authentic self. Clients often tell me how comfortable and validated they feel in our sessions. My goal is to help you feel empowered and move toward what your heart or inner child yearns for. If you would like to connect and learn more about my approach, please visit my website or send me a message to schedule a free consult. I am currently offering virtual sessions for those in New York State.
