My primary focus is working with adults who have experienced trauma or loss. This includes victims of violence, those grieving significant losses, immigrants/refugees and people who've been diagnosed with frightening illnesses. I also specialize in clients who are traumatized in the course of their work, such as medical professionals, essential workers, and journalists. Clients tend to come to me feeling disconnected from their lives, from other people, and from who they used to be. They often say they feel out of control of their moods and feelings, and are looking to regain that sense of agency.
I teach clients how to integrate their traumatic experiences into their current lives so they can feel a sense of control over their mood and can begin to reconnect with what is important to them. Clients learn how to bring this new self into their current lives, making it possible to have suffered and also to have a rich and fulfilling future.
Finding a therapist is daunting for anyone, especially for those who've experienced trauma or loss. For many, the idea of talking about what happened to them is terrifying and trusting someone to hear their story can feel impossible. It is part of my job to help you feel safe to begin this process. I'm happy to talk to and walk you through it.
