Introduction

Healing the Parts of You That Never Got to Feel Safe.​ ​ You may be the person others see as strong, capable, and dependable, while privately feeling anxious, guarded, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from yourself. You may second-guess your decisions, struggle to recognize your needs, feel guilty setting boundaries, or understand your patterns intellectually without knowing how to change them. ​ I specialize in helping adults heal from PTSD, complex trauma, childhood and relational trauma, anxiety, and life-altering experiences. Many of the patterns affecting you today began as ways of protecting you. Therapy can help you understand those patterns without judgment while developing a greater sense of safety, choice, and self-trust. ​ My approach integrates EMDR therapy with IFS-informed parts work, along with other evidence-based practices tailored to your needs. Our work is collaborative and thoughtfully paced, with an emphasis on safety and preparation before processing painful experiences. ​ I am a Certified EMDR Therapist, CEO and Founder of Living Purpose Mental Health Counseling, and a clinical supervisor. I provide telehealth therapy to adults in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and
