If you're like most of my clients – you are high functioning and externally successful, but when you slow down or try to relax, your nervous system kicks into high alert. So, you can’t stop. Your intimate relationships are draining and a struggle to maintain, but you can’t be alone either. You feel an emptiness and lack of fulfillment no matter how much you accomplish. You have tried coping on your own, but your triggers, as well as, your stress are getting worse. I get it. I believe that triggers are opportunities for healing and growth and that with putting in the work there is light at the end of the tunnel. Help is available.
If you're a high achiever in NYC who has experienced childhood trauma, I will help you connect to your feelings, your partner, and your authentic self. My primary modality is EMDR. I specialize in complex childhood trauma that may be physical, sexual, but also relational (how you were treated by your parents).
I understand trauma, and I understand survivors. To be a survivor of child abuse makes you resilient, but also missing certain skills. My patients learn to safely feel their feelings, connect to others, but most importantly connect to themselves in order to start living a more authentic life post trauma.
