It can be frustrating to not see any progress in talk therapy, to be told to trust the process. By providing evidence based therapy for depression, anxiety, and complex trauma, each session feels productive, like work is being done, until the client feels almost like their own therapist. If you find yourself feeling unmotivated, empty, having trouble deeply connecting with others, wanting to change but being unable to do so, reaching out to a therapist that uses a trauma informed approach is a great first step!
I have seen clients move past their trauma and its effects, become fuller versions of themselves, with the ability to become their own safe space, to have healthy relationships, and regulate their emotions in a health way. Internal Family Systems Therapy, with DBT, focuses on resolving present effects of trauma, without requiring reliving painful memories.
I treat clients as whole people, not their diagnosis, with an open collaborative approach, paired with psycho education, accountability, and productive work in each session. I use a culture/ identify informed lens, as a queer first gen South Asian (Indian) American. Feel free to reach out for a free consult call.

Within the first month, after establishing coping skills, we map different parts of the client's self that they would like to change. Client's often see improvement within a few months. Unlike other trauma therapy, IFS doesn't require feeling worse before feeling better, as the present effects of trauma are the focus, not reliving painful memories.
