Trauma is not just something that happened in the past—it can continue to show up in your body, relationships, and the way you experience the world. I help clients gently process painful experiences while understanding how trauma has shaped their thoughts, emotions, and nervous system responses. Using a trauma-informed approach that integrates somatic therapy, attachment work, and evidence-based strategies, we work together to create safety, build resilience, and help you reconnect with yourself.

Trauma in teens rarely announces itself. It shows up as a kid who is on edge for no obvious reason, or who has gone numb, or whose reactions seem out of proportion to whatever just happened. It can look like anger, like risk-taking, like trouble sleeping, like a sudden change in who they are close to and what they will do. Sometimes it is a single event everyone knows about. Sometimes it is years of something that was never named.
What makes it trauma is not the size of the event but what it did to their sense of safety, and how much of it they had to handle alone.
I am trained in EMDR, parts work, and other trauma-focused approaches, and I work at a pace your teen sets. We do not start by asking them to tell the story. We start by building enough trust and enough internal steadiness that going near the hard material does not overwhelm them. That preparation is not a delay before the real work. It is a large part of the real work, and skipping it is how therapy ends up doing harm.
When they are ready, we process what happened so it stops living in the present tense: less reactivity, better sleep, more room to be a teenager rather than someone managing something constantly.
A note for parents. You may not be told everything, and that is by design. Confidentiality is what makes it possible for your teen to be honest, and I will explain clearly what I can and cannot share, and where the limits are around safety. I will keep you involved in the work without asking your teen to give up the privacy that makes it work.

Painful experiences can stay with you in ways that are hard to explain. I use trauma-focused CBT and a patient, steady pace so you can make sense of what happened and feel safer in your own life.

Acknowledging an event as traumatic is scary, and it can be easy to minimize our past experiences particularly when we feel "fine". Yet one may experience a variety of mental health symptoms and/or patterns which may feel uncomfortable or interfere with various life areas. These patterns likely helped you survive the traumatic experience, yet continued despite no longer being needed. I have over 15 years experience in treating symptoms of trauma and PTSD in children, adolescents, and adults. I utilize an integrated approach, incorporating psychoeducation, parts work (IFS), EMDR therapy, mindfulness and CBT to support clients of all ages with processing the traumatic experience and integrating adaptive information and new, more effective patterns.
