Are you feeling stuck and wondering why you make certain choices? Do you find yourself putting others' needs ahead of your own? I offer online therapy to help you improve relationships, regulate emotions more effectively, and break free from self-sabotaging habits. My passion is supporting those who’ve experienced trauma to regain control and overcome feelings of inadequacy, attachment issues, boundary struggles, and chronic anxiety or depression. I specialize in working with survivors of family trauma and abusive relationships, including narcissistic abuse, and Complex PTSD (C-PTSD).
I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) and a graduate of the Columbia University DBT Training program. I integrate evidence-based practices such DBT, CBT, ACT, and Mindfulness-based approaches into my therapeutic work. I'm also trained in Dr. Lindsay Gibson's "Treating Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents".
Bessel van der Kolk said “Being able to feel safe with other people is probably the single most important aspect of mental health". My aim is to provide a nurturing, accepting, and non-judgmental space, employing an eclectic approach tailored to your unique needs. Take the first step towards healing by reaching out to me."
