I want to acknowledge your strength in seeking support during this challenging time. You are not alone, and there is hope for healing. If you have experienced sexual abuse, domestic violence, or child abuse, please know that you are not alone, and there is hope for healing. As a therapist dedicated to supporting survivors, I provide a safe and compassionate environment where you can share your experiences and feelings without fear of judgment. Together, we will work to understand the impact of these experiences on your life and develop coping strategies to support your healing journey.
In therapy, I integrate various approaches tailored to meet the needs of each client. This includes cognitive-behavioral techniques to address thought patterns and behaviors, mindfulness practices to enhance self-awareness and reduce stress, IFS, and psychodynamic exploration to understand how past experiences influence current feelings and behaviors.
I understand that taking the first step toward seeking support can feel daunting, especially when facing feelings of hopelessness, entanglement, or uncertainty. Please know that you are not alone in this journey. I am here to offer a compassionate and non-judgmental space where we can work together to navigate through these challenges.

sSurvivors of Domestic Violence (trauma)
Domestic violence support groups are designed to provide survivors with a safe space for healing and empowerment. These sessions typically include education about the dynamics of abuse, emotional support, and practical tools for coping and recovery. Participants engage in discussions that foster understanding and community, helping them recognize unhealthy patterns in relationships. The support group often include activities aimed at rebuilding self-esteem, setting goals, and developing healthy coping mechanisms.
