IN PERSON IN RED BANK, NJ + ONLINE ACROSS NEW JERSEY
Helping women break free from the past and feel safe in the present.
You’ve worked hard to move forward — but the past still touches your life in ways you didn’t expect.
A memory that catches you off guard.
A reaction that feels too big for what’s happening now.
A body that stays tense, even when you want to relax.
You’re craving a sense of calm and steadiness, but don’t know how to get there.
Trauma therapy helps you work through what happened and find your footing again so life more livable, more yours.
Untangling the Past
Trauma isn’t just the event that happened, it’s how you experienced it. Two people can go through the same situation and carry completely different scars.
It isn’t always one big, life-changing moment like an accident or abuse. Sometimes it’s the smaller, repeated moments that stay with you:
A parent who couldn’t be there when you needed comfort
A friend who pulled away right when you reached out
A breakup that left you questioning your worth
It can also come from growing up in a home where love felt distant, family pain that’s been passed down through generations, facing ongoing criticism, or grief and loss.
Even moments you brushed off as “not a big deal” can leave an imprint and if they still weigh on you now, they’re worth exploring.
Through anxiety therapy, you can let go of self-criticism and find joy in the present.
Therapy helps you build new ways of coping so you can:
Speak up for what you need without overexplaining or apologizing
Be present with the people you love
Catch anxious thoughts before they spiral
Feel calmer and more connected to your body
As things shift, you sleep more deeply, feel less on edge and have space to enjoy the moments that matter — laughing with friends, sharing quality time with your partner, or resting without guilt.
What To Expect In Anxiety Therapy Sessions
We’ll begin with a 90-minute intake, giving you space to share what you’re experiencing, without feeling rushed. After that, we’ll meet for 50-minute sessions — a set time each week just for you.
You don’t need to come in with all the answers. I’ll help guide the conversation, notice what might be keeping you stuck and offer tools you can start using right away.
My Approach to Trauma Therapy
I take a warm, collaborative, and strengths-based approach to trauma therapy, which means I see your coping strategies as signs of resilience, not weakness. My role is to help you feel safe and supported as you begin to notice how past experiences may still be shaping your life today.
You’ll never be asked to share more than you’re ready for. Some people find it helpful to talk through their story; others prefer to focus on grounding and moving forward without revisiting every detail. However you choose to approach it, therapy will meet you where you are.
Your story isn’t over. Trauma therapy helps you loosen the weight you’ve been carrying and write the next chapter with more choice, more peace, and more of you in it.

You May Still Have Questions About Trauma Therapy…
Will I have to talk about painful memories right away?
No. You’ll never be pushed to share something before you’re ready. In our work, you’re in the driver’s seat. We’ll move slowly and focus on helping you feel steady first, so you always feel supported when we start exploring deeper emotions.
How will trauma treatment actually help me day-to-day?
Therapy is about more than just talking — it’s about helping your mind and body feel more regulated. You’ll learn simple tools to settle your nervous system, stay present when you’re triggered, and respond with more choice instead of feeling stuck in automatic reactions.
Can therapy help me address other issues besides trauma?
Yes. Trauma therapy often helps with anxiety, perfectionism, relationship struggles, and difficulty setting boundaries. We’ll explore how these patterns started and practice new ways to cope so you can feel more confident in every part of your life
