I’ve spent a lot of time developing expertise in the issues I work with; however, I rely equally on my heart and gut sense in working with each client uniquely. I have a straightforward, common-sense style and know the value of elbow grease in making life changes. Trauma in all its forms is the thread that connects the different life problems I specialize in working with. I don’t believe in having only one tool in my toolbox, any more than I believe in having only one trauma treatment available to help you. Let’s figure out what tools work best for you, whether that be EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Brain Spotting, Deep Brain Reorienting, or the Safe and Sound Protocol. We currently have openings for intensives, men's and women's groups, and online workshops.

If your body is still feeling uncomfortable, agitated, or activated despite years of therapy and self-work, you're in the right place. If you've already made the connection that some of your physical symptoms are probably stress related, you're well along your way. Once you've identified that, then there are ways that you can learn to work with your nervous system to start moving in a better direction. I collaborate with intelligent, caring and curious humans to help them learn how to settle their nervous systems and resolve stress-related issues they may be contending with, ranging from digestive issues to anxiety attacks, nervous tics to emotional flares. I currently have openings on Wednesdays and Thursdays: Let's schedule a free 15-minute consult to see if we're a good fit. Just go to this address: https://oncehub.com/thoughtfulintro

Elizabeth is New Jersey's fourth-largest city and one of its most densely populated and ethnically diverse communities, a port city in Union County with a long history of immigrant settlement that today is home to large Dominican, Puerto Rican, Colombian, Ecuadorian, Haitian, and other Latin American and Caribbean communities, alongside significant West African populations. The city has a high poverty rate and limited private therapy infrastructure, and the most pressing mental health needs are often addressed through emergency and community health channels. Multilingual care—in Spanish, Haitian Creole, and other languages—is essential, and bilingual and bicultural therapists who understand the specific experiences of recent immigrants, refugees, and documentation-insecure communities are in consistent demand. Common therapy concerns include immigration trauma, family separation, economic stress, anxiety, depression, and the compounding psychological challenges of navigating life in a dense urban community with limited resources and significant systemic barriers.
