Trauma-Informed Therapy Services in Boston
As a licensed psychologist with over a decade of specialized experience in trauma therapy, I founded Boston Trauma Therapy to provide evidence-based care for individuals navigating the aftermath of trauma. My practice is rooted in Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), approaches proven effective for addressing trauma's complex impacts on the mind and body. With a PhD in Clinical Psychology from Syracuse University and extensive training at institutions like the IFS Institute and Trauma Research Foundation, I bring deep expertise to treating PTSD, sexual assault, domestic violence, and medical trauma. My clinical background spans community mental health, college counseling, and primary care settings, ensuring a nuanced understanding of diverse client needs.I prioritize creating a safe, collaborative space where clients can rebuild emotional regulation and resilience. For therapists launching solo practices, I offer consultation services on operational frameworks, compliance, and practice management. Virtual sessions are tailored to meet Massachusetts and New York residents, combining flexibility with specialized care. My commitment to trauma-informed principles is reflected in every aspect of this practice, from therapeutic modalities to administrative policies.
