Individual Therapy
Individual therapy offers a steady, supportive space to slow down and reconnect with yourself, particularly for those seeking trauma-informed individual therapy or attachment-based psychotherapy. For many people, stress, anxiety, or past relational wounds live not only in thoughts, but in the nervous system and body. At the beginning of therapy, we usually take time to understand you as a whole person—your history, current challenges, attachment patterns, and nervous system responses—while also identifying what helps you feel more anchored, regulated, and safe. A thoughtful, trauma-informed intake and questionnaire process allows us to gather this information collaboratively, ensuring therapy begins at a pace that supports stability rather than overwhelm.
As therapy continues, sessions are guided by a combination of present-moment process work and gentle exploration of past experiences. We work with what arises emotionally and somatically while also supporting reflection and mentalization, helping you make sense of your experiences with greater clarity and compassion. This approach is especially supportive for individuals seeking trauma therapy, anxiety treatment, or somatic therapy, as it allows insight to develop alongside nervous system regulation rather than in isolation. Over time, this helps loosen long-standing patterns shaped by trauma, attachment injuries, or chronic stress.
Integration is central to the healing process. Drawing from the evidence-based interventions described in the Interventions section—including EMDR, somatic and body-based approaches, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and other attachment-focused therapies—we support the nervous system in processing what was once overwhelming. As experiences are integrated, insight becomes embodied, emotional flexibility increases, and moments of calm, clarity, and connection become more accessible in daily life.
Throughout our work together, therapy remains collaborative, attuned, and responsive. Sessions are paced to honor your nervous system, readiness, and goals, supporting a gradual shift from survival-driven responses toward greater choice, resilience, and self-trust. Individual therapy becomes a space not only to process the past, but to integrate it in ways that support meaningful change, emotional well-being, and more authentic connection.
I offer individual therapy in New York City and Connecticut, providing trauma-informed, attachment-based, and somatic psychotherapy for adults seeking deeper healing and lasting change.
