If something hard happened and you mostly handled it on your own, it probably still shows up: the jumpiness, the racing thoughts at night, the way your body braces when nothing is wrong. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in trauma, with four years of experience supporting survivors of domestic violence, along with people dealing with anxiety, chronic stress and difficult transitions.
I use CBT, DBT and EMDR within trauma-informed care, starting with skills that help you feel steadier before we go near the harder material. I'm also trained in the Gottman Method. The work is structured enough to make progress and flexible enough to follow what you need on a given day.
Early sessions are about getting to know you and what you want from therapy, and I'll explain how we'll work toward it. Nothing gets rushed. I see clients in person in Midtown Manhattan and online in New York and Florida.
