Often times, life's waves produce times of emotional hardship marked by deep seated feelings of grief, sadness, confusion, depression, worry, and anxiety. Therapy is an opportunity to have the space, support, and safety to address the waves inherent in everyday life without judgment. If you are experiencing a life transition, a break-up, day-to-day parenting and relationship stress, or you are simply being haunted by past events or thoughts that don't seem to budge, therapy can provide an outlet to gain the insight, awareness, and relief you may be seeking.
In a 12-session telehealth group for survivors of childhood trauma, we explore the impact of abuse, neglect, abandonment, rejection, trauma or significant loss. The primary focus is on understanding adult challenges and automatic reactions, practicing healing tools and processing the emotions that accompany past events.. Exercises include: * Guided imagery meditations * Inner child work * CBT * EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) * Affirmations * Mindfulness and relaxation * Anger management skills * EMDR demo * FLASH * Polyvagal exercises. All groups are closed groups, i.e. participants start and complete the program together. Next group starts in January 2025.
Please note that I currently only have openings for upcoming groups, not individual therapy. I am an EMDR Certified Therapist and Consultant who specializes in the treatment of trauma and dissociation. I believe that healing from trauma is possible (as opposed to just learning how to cope with post-traumatic symptoms). I consider therapy a collaborative, creative process. Clinically, I am warm, active, innovative and data-driven. I incorporate clinical hypnosis, inner child work, ketamine assisted psychotherapy, TF-CBT, EFT, mindfulness, the FLASH technique and polyvagal exercises into EMDR therapy as needed.
Our in person group focuses on helping children ages 7-12 gain coping strategies by building their own "Coping Toolbox." Each week your child will create a new "tool" to add to their Toolbox. At the end of the 6 weeks, your child will have their very own "Toolbox" they can take home and new tools they can utilize when feeling overwhelmed. The last ten minutes of each group session will include check-ins with supporting adults to review the tools created that week and how to utilize it to support your child.

You may be feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety - whether it’s from external demands or internal struggles. Maybe it's social anxiety, "a life transition," or healing from trauma. Or maybe it's something more general, like you want to feel more "in control" of your emotions…and your life. I can help. Together, we’ll uncover the roots of your challenges, empowering you to move forward - with skill and confidence. I use “treatments that work” (CBT, DBT, mindfulness, etc). But we’ll find what works for YOU. Lastly, I don’t just want you to just “feel better.” I want you to live your best life. I'm looking forward to meeting you!
In this online group, parents/caregivers will gain support and build connections with other caregivers as well as learn basic DBT skills to better understand and more effectively support their child in regulating emotions & behavior, improving relationships, increasing self-awareness, and building a life that feels more worth living. Group is held Wednesdays from 6-7:15pm and is led by an intensively-trained DBT clinician. The fee is $50 per session. *Note: This group is ongoing and new participants are welcome to join at any time.
All of our actions serve a purpose at some point. However, our goals/priorities change and sometimes our once-useful behaviors become ineffective or even harmful. I often describe dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) as “common sense therapy.” Using familiar concepts, DBT helps people recognize when their behaviors are no longer serving them and teaches skills to more effectively meet their needs/goals.
