I specialize in treating complex, intergenerational trauma. Trauma's impact can be far-reaching, affecting emotional and physical well-being and influencing how one relates to others. In therapy we will focus on breaking cycles of intergenerational trauma. If you grew up with violence or you are worried that you won't be able to protect your kids, the cycle CAN be broken. Therapy can help you make sense of the trauma and start to believe that you are worthy of safety and protection.

I work with clients who have experienced childhood sexual abuse, familial abuse, and adult sexual assault. Sexual trauma can have a profound affect on your emotional wellbeing and fill you with feelings of shame and fear of intimacy. Sometimes you really care about the person who abused you and feel confused and conflicted about it. Sexual trauma can be one of the hardest things to talk about in therapy. We will spend as long as you need building trust to ensure that you feel safe.

Experiencing loss can be a deeply personal and often painful journey. Whether it's the loss of a loved one, navigating the end of a relationship like divorce, or facing significant life transitions, the pain can feel overwhelming. Sometimes loss can be traumatic and you feel as though your whole world is in disarray. Therapy can offer a supportive space to begin the process of understanding your experience, healing, and gradually building a sense of what life can look like as you move forward.

Intergenerational trauma can deeply impact mental, emotional, and physical well-being. My practice focuses on empowering individuals to heal from the impact of intergenerational trauma and abuse. I work with parents who have endured abuse and are worried about their children, helping them find ways to break the cycle and create a healthier future. I focus on attachment, healthy relationships, and improving self-esteem and sense of personal agency.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy empowers you to understand and connect with the different aspects of yourself, known as 'parts.' This approach helps you explore how past experiences, including trauma, have shaped these parts and the ways you've learned to cope. By working with your inner system, IFS can help you address challenging behaviors and heal wounded or traumatized parts of yourself, leading to a healthier, more balanced life.

Many of my clients have been to therapy before and felt that it did not address the core of their struggles. Trauma can have a profound impact on emotional and physical health, self-esteem, and relationships. Trauma lives in the body and can come out in confusing ways, even decades later. I help my clients understand the full impact that trauma has had. I use different methods to help you ground yourself, soothe your body, and make sense of the terrible experiences you have endured.

Psychodynamic therapy aims to help individuals understand how unconscious thoughts, feelings, and past experiences, particularly those from childhood, influence their present behavior and emotional state. In therapy, we will delve into the underlying causes of your distress. Self-awareness and emotional understanding are pathways to resolving conflicts and developing healthier coping mechanisms, leading to lasting improvements in emotional well-being and relationships.
