You don’t have to stay stuck in patterns, anxiety, and overwhelm.
I provide structured, evidence-based trauma therapy for thoughtful, high-functioning adults across New York and North Carolina.
If you’re someone who already understands your patterns—perhaps you’ve read the books or been in therapy before—but you still feel pulled by them when life gets loud, I can help. We’re here to move beyond "knowing" and start the work of real, felt change.
Therapy with me is focused and steady, designed to help you build internal security and create meaningful forward movement.
You are capable, responsible, reflective.
And yet.
You feel "wired but tired"—completely exhausted, yet unable to actually turn your brain off to rest.
The past hijacks your present, showing up as intrusive thoughts or heavy feelings you didn't invite in.
You’re waiting for the catch. It’s hard to remember the last time you felt truly safe or relaxed without bracing for the other shoe to drop.
You stay busy—constantly moving, scrolling, or working—because staying still means having to feel.
You’re your own harshest critic. It feels nearly impossible to soften toward yourself, even when you’re doing your best.
You’ve spent years pushing through difficult experiences without the chance to fully process them. Whether your "stuck" points come from early family dynamics, relational wounds, life-shattering events, or sudden loss, the result is the same: even when your life looks stable from the outside, your body is still on edge.
When you’ve survived something—whether it was a single event or a long-term environment—you learn how to keep going. You learn how to perform, how to show up, and how to ignore the alarm bells. But you shouldn't have to live in survival mode forever. Together, we’ll help your nervous system understand that it is finally safe to let its guard down.
Services
Individual Therapy
People begin therapy for many reasons—feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns, navigating loss or major decisions, coping with anxiety or painful emotions, or working toward meaningful change. Reaching out can feel difficult, but therapy offers a structured, supportive space to slow things down, gain clarity, and move forward more effectively.
Relationship Therapy
Being in a relationship requires self-awareness, accountability, and flexibility. When couples feel stuck in recurring conflict, emotional distance, or difficult decision points, relationship therapy can help clarify patterns, reduce reactivity, and support more effective communication.
DBT Skills Group + DBT Grad Group
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based treatment that helps people build practical skills for managing emotions, tolerating distress, improving relationships, and staying grounded under stress. DBT is based on the principle that meaningful change happens by balancing acceptance of what is with intentional efforts to change what isn’t working.
