How do you work with clients with trauma and PTSD?

I believe all people inherently possess the capacity to make life- enriching, meaningful change. Sometimes, we just need extra support to sort through all that life might throw at us in order to make those changes. I provide clients with a safe, understanding, and nonjudgmental environment. Together, we will work to identify barriers, address challenges and implement plans to make meaningful change: to start connecting, managing, and truly living. I work from a person-centered approach, by which you will feel heard, understood, and in control of your progress. I truly believe that a therapeutic relationship grounded in trust is the key to strengthening resilience and facilitating growth. You no longer have to do this alone. It will be my privilege to walk along side you; to explore opportunities to address challenges and achieve goals. I offer a complimentary 15 minute consultation to discuss how we can move forward together.

I am a licensed trauma therapist and I provide teletherapy to individuals in New York, Texas, and Maryland. My specialty is developing distress tolerance, or making stress feel less overwhelming. I work with clients aged 5-18, 18+ as individuals and/or families. Stress exists as a necessary part of the human experience. For some, this experience has been more dangerous, disruptive, or overwhelming. In our sessions, I’ll provide the opportunity for you to reconnect with a sense of safety to move into a fuller life. I practice from a combination of therapy models. I use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) as the basis for skill building. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy is a guide for regulating the nervous system. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) builds a deeper connection to our authentic goals.

Hey there. Before I further go on about me, I need to take a moment to surface something about you. Bear with me.... It's important to note you made it to this point, which is the point of acknowledging a struggle, seeing the importance of caring for yourself, and building the courage to reach out knowing growth and improvement are on the horizon. For those who I have had the opportunity to work with, I am humbled by the experience to be part of the journey and chapters of their life. I'd be honored to be part of yours. I have worked with a lot of people from many walks of life, with different life experiences. No two experiences are ever the same. You are the expert in the room when it comes to your life, your perspective, and your experience of it. It is my responsibility as well as privilege to understand how you have experienced your life -- no assumptions and no judgments. Together, we will set therapy goals. Through the process, you are the driver, and I will help with the navigation.
