When triggered do you shut down, have unexpected emotions, or dissociate? Do you want to understand why you relate to others the way you do, reflect on your attachment tendencies, and explore your identity? Have you been feeling stressed and unfulfilled, like nothing you ever do is ever good enough, or haunted by the past? If so, know you are not alone, and there is hope for healing. Through therapy you may be able to learn new coping and communication skills, decrease painful emotions and negative thoughts related to past traumatic or negative events, develop new ways to respond to relational triggers, and become more resilient.
As a queer, secular therapist in recovery with a Ph.D. in Depth Psychology and certification in EMDR, an evidence-based trauma therapy, I strive to create an affirming environment where folks with complex trauma and/or attachment wounds can freely express themselves, practice new skills, and safely work towards healthier relationships, healing and growth.
One of the reasons why I became a therapist is because of my own recovery, which has allowed me to find joy and purpose in life. I understand it can be hard to reach out to someone new and find the right fit. If you'd like to learn more about how therapy might be able to benefit you, please contact me to schedule a free 15 to 30 min consultation.
