Great to meet you!

At Newport Beach Trauma Therapy, we are a multi- disciplinary practice that specializes in working with children, individuals, couples and families struggling with trauma and transitional related issues. We utilize evidence based methods to enable you to overcome the impact of painful life experiences or trauma. Imagine if your symptoms no longer controlled you. You feel safe and confident that you can face life challenges. You can create strong relationships.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Trauma can generate complicated and painful emotions. Unless these emotions are processed, they can become “stuck” in your body and mind. This unprocessed trauma can severely impact your physical health, mental health, career, relationships and more. The good news is...it’s never too late to heal from trauma! Our goal is to create a safe space for you to do so.

What you can expect from our first session

We work with your deepest issues, but also help you discover and cultivate your innate strengths and personal greatness! Our practice integrates mind, body, emotions and intention. We use a holistic psychotherapy approach combining Attachment Therapy, mindfulness, coupled with trauma modalities, such as EMDR, NARM and Somatic therapies.
