I work with people who are experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship stressors, and life transitions, as well as those who want to heal from childhood trauma and emotional neglect. I specialize in trauma focused therapy using Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic Attachment Therapy, and Expressive Arts Therapy. During individual sessions we will work together to identify and change the thought, behavior patterns, and beliefs that are keeping you stuck and suffering; help you gain greater access to your innate healing capacities and resilience; and grow your capacity for self-compassion, joy, creativity and connection.

You will find me to be a warm and compassionate guide on your healing journey. I utilize a variety of psychotherapeutic approaches including Internal Family Systems to help you process and heal trauma while cultivating self-compassion and curiosity; and somatic and mindfulness techniques to help you restore a felt sense of well-being and safety in your body

I hope you will find comfort in knowing that whatever your current struggles are, you do not have to face them alone and life can get better. I work with adult individuals and couples who are ready for growth and healing. Please call or email me to schedule a complementary phone consultation. I appreciate your courage and would be honored to work with you!

I specialize in trauma focused therapy. During our initial sessions I will teach you about trauma, help you make sense of the various symptoms you experience, including nervous system dysregulation, and teach you tools and techniques to begin to restore your system to it's regulated state. Most of my clients see a decrease in their symptoms in the first month with ongoing improvement thereafter.

Adult Drama Therapy and Mindfulness Group

Hosted by

Judy Noddin

Drama Therapy offers an approach to healing and personal growth that is at once fun and therapeutic. During group, we will engage in playful theater games to build trust, spontaneity and group cohesion. There will also be time to reflect mindfully on your experience, check in about your life, give and receive support from other group members and identify personal issues to explore more deeply--sometimes verbally, sometimes somatically and sometimes with the use of drama therapy and psychodrama. Participating in this group can increase self awareness, feelings of joy, spontaneity, confidence, and compassion for yourself and others.
