In-Person, Glen Head, NY
Telehealth Throughout New York
I work exclusively with women who are carrying the weight of relational trauma: neglect, abandonment, mistreatment (often from childhood), and who continue to experience recurring narcissistic relational patterns. You likely have survived by disconnecting from yourself and over-giving to others. You may have spent years performing, pleasing, and pushing away your own needs in order to feel safe or find security. You've probably learned to dissociate, to numb, to stay busy, to be perfect. It helped you survive back then, but now it keeps you stuck.
This work is active, embodied healing work. Together we explore how your early relational experiences shaped the survival strategies and patterns you’ve developed, and decide if those patterns are still benefitting you. Through psychodynamic exploration of your history, coupled with somatic (body awareness) practices, you’ll learn to inhabit yourself, to connect to your own inner wisdom, and reconnect with parts of yourself that you’ve been cut off from. This is slow, deep work, often requiring 2+ years of consistent sessions before real lasting changes take place.
The goal is transformation and evolution. You’ll begin to understand your story, process the pain and fear you’ve been living with, and align with your true self and soul. The experiences that have wounded you become the catalyst for discovering who you’re meant to become and the greater purpose of your life.
**This deep work may require you to engage in practices outside of the session- learning to meditate or do breathwork, journaling, and reflecting on painful moments from your past. Healing happens not just in our time together, but in how you show up for yourself between sessions.
