Relational Trauma Therapy

Begin Healing Today

Welcome

Messages like "don't complain," "keep your head up," and "don't cry" can lead to emotional denial, low self-esteem, and the development of a harsh inner critic fueled by anxiety, guilt, and shame. This may intensify feelings of not belonging or being misunderstood, leading to a struggle to validate your experiences. Consequently, navigating relationships becomes overwhelming, hindering the establishment of healthy boundaries and perpetuating a cycle of disconnection from your true self.

Within us lie concealed, wounded aspects yearning for acknowledgment and validation. Through my practice, I endeavor to recognize, comprehend, and facilitate the healing of these facets. Embracing a relational, collaborative, and non-judgmental approach, the therapeutic alliance becomes a conduit for corrective emotional experiences, fostering deeper connections and new perspectives conducive to transformative change. My commitment is to foster understanding and insight into your relationships and the defenses impeding your journey toward actualization.

Areas of Expertise

Trauma manifests in myriad forms, often as a disruptive force challenging an individual's sense of safety. Feelings of shame, betrayal, and guilt commonly accompany these experiences. Through a compassionate and secure therapeutic environment, I aim to facilitate a journey of healing. My objective is to empower you to construct a new narrative, one where trauma no longer dictates your identity.

Are you struggling to own who you are? Do you find yourself hiding certain parts because of embarrassment or shame? Are you longing for genuine connection?

Relationships—be it platonic, familial, or romantic—when you perceive a disparity in power, it often stifles your ability to express yourself authentically. Consequently, you may find yourself suppressing emotions and experiences, leading to the cultivation of inauthentic connections. This can prompt a cycle of contorting oneself to fit in, ultimately fostering feelings of isolation and disconnection.

Therapy with me is a space where you can feel understood, validated, and included.
