Are you recovering from narcissistic abuse? I know this can be an incredibly challenging process. You deserve a therapeutic relationship that honors your story and gives you a safe place to process what you're going through. You can reduce the trauma.

I grew up experiencing narcissistic abuse on a daily basis. I'm sorry for the pain and heartache you are enduring. Therapy can help. There are numerous ways to process your trauma and reduce the negative impact it's having on your life. The main modalities we will use are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Internal Family Systems Therapy.

You can heal from narcissistic abuse. Please reach out by emailing or calling me. I provide online therapy only and currently have a few slots available on weekday evenings. I wish you the best.

I work with people who are recovering from anxiety, relationship problems, or trauma related to their current or past experiences. We delve deeply into the issues at hand, and use therapeutic tools to engage your compassion towards yourself. This often increases self-compassion and self-understanding and leads to a gradual lifting of symptoms throughout the therapeutic process.
