Have you been wondering if your current challenges are due to past traumatic life events? Do you struggle in relationships? If so, I may be the Therapist for you. I specialize in trauma therapy for teenagers and adults. Many people often think trauma is only caused by violent crimes, acts of physical abuse, or natural disasters. They may also think because trauma happened a long time ago, it does not affect them in the present. These are a few of the myths about trauma. There are many types of traumas such as the sudden or unexpected death of a loved one, bullying, retaliation in the workplace, neglect from parents, infidelity, intimate partner violence, the witnessing of domestic violence and more. If you or your teen is struggling with anxiety, depression, or life stressors, therapy with me can help with positive changes to strengthen self-esteem and confidence. I am trained in EMDR and other trauma therapy approaches. My years of professional experience as a teacher and counselor, along with my lived experiences as a Black person allow me to provide empathetic regard while helping clients from multicultural backgrounds.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our first session together will focus on getting to know each other, address specific challenges of what you are currently dealing with, and then discuss your goals and what you plan to achieve at the end of therapy.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
EMDR therapy for many types of childhood trauma, and traumatic events in adulthood. She understands how race, ethnicity, gender, religion, immigration status, and culture can influence the way you cope with lived experiences. Her trauma-focused therapy approach is multicultural, collaborative, and centered in the theory of attachment. She uses the therapeutic relationship and her nurturing personality, to help her clients heal from trauma
