Let Your Journey Towards Inner Healing Begin
Trauma-Informed Inner Child Work for High Functioning Adults
Hello and Welcome!
I understand that finding a therapist can be extremely anxiety-provoking and difficult. This is why I strive to provide my clients with a safe, supportive environment that facilitates their ability to address deep-rooted, painful wounds and begin their healing journey. I specialize in treating adults with high-functioning PTSD/trauma—meaning that, from the outside, you are the person who always appears to have it all together. You are responsible, a great caretaker, and a high achiever. On the outside, you might seem fine and like life is okay—however, on the inside, you feel differently. You may feel disconnected, anxious, or numb. You struggle to relax, trust others, or feel truly seen. No matter how much you accomplish, it never feels like enough. You carry a deep sense of loneliness or shame that’s hard to name—and even harder to explain. This is what high-functioning trauma often looks like: invisible to others, but deeply felt.
My Approach
I believe that there is no exact recipe or standardized treatment in therapy. Each person that comes to see me is unique and presents a different set of issues. This is why I hope to create an individualized, organic treatment plan that is tailored towards helping each person achieve their goals. As a psychodynamic, trauma focused therapist, my main focus is the relationship and connection I have with my clients. I believe that it is important to feel grounded and secure when processing deep rooted and painful issues.
Long-Term Healing Through Psychodynamic Inner Child Work
During our sessions together, I will be using a psychodynamic framework that incorporates inner child healing. This style of therapy focuses on uncovering unconscious and recurring patterns that may be preventing individuals from moving forward and experiencing true inner healing. This approach is grounded in the belief that early childhood experiences—particularly those involving unmet emotional needs, trauma, or attachment disruptions—can leave lasting imprints on the psyche. These unresolved issues often manifest in adulthood as depression, anxiety, low self-worth, self-sabotaging behaviors, and difficulties in relationships.
Unlike some other forms of therapy, psychodynamic work is a long-term process that requires commitment. It is not intended as a quick fix or a “band-aid” approach to coping. Rather, it is best suited for those who are seeking deep, meaningful, and lasting change—and who understand that true inner healing takes time. Through this form of counseling, my goal is to support clients in achieving long-lasting, lifestyle-level transformation—the kind of growth that may not always be possible through more surface-level approaches.
