PTSD, Trauma, & Anxiety Counseling in New Hampshire & Massachusetts

Are you the person everyone counts on and nobody checks on?

Do you hold it all together at work, at home, with friends, and in your own head. But lately you're noticing you can't turn off the late night thoughts, the exhaustion, and the stress? 

Do you snap at people you love and feel terrible about it five minutes later? 

If the things you struggle with are getting harder and harder to ignore it means you're ready to start working on feeling better.
 

When talk therapy isn't enough - trauma/PTSD treatment goes deeper.

Many people I work with have been in counseling in the past spending years in talk therapy but still feeling stuck in the same patterns.

You might still be on high alert with the same triggers tripping you up over and over again.

Trauma can start in many places:

• Emotional or physical trauma from childhood or past partners

• Unexpected events like car crashes, fires, or shootings

• Exposure to any negative, life threatening event

• Medical and birth trauma

That's where specialized therapy specific to trauma and PTSD becomes very important.

I walk you through a specific type of Cognitive Behavior Therapy designed specifically for trauma. This therapy takes 10-15 sessions studies have found that 60-80% of clients who complete all sessions have complete relief from PTSD symptoms and continued relief 12 and 24 months after completion.

I specialize in working with people who live in high-stress, high demand careers. Whether you are in finance, law, medicine, nursing, or running your own business. You have been operating at full capacity for years. You are driven, capable, and constantly pushing forward but behind the success it might feel like you are barely holding on.

• Maybe you are feeling:

• Burned out

• Working to a breaking point or feeling like you can't stop

• Wondering if the stress you carry is worth it

• Watching your important relationships fall apart

• Struggle with feeling present

You don't have to figure it out alone.

In our time together I will share grounded, systematic ways to unpack what is really going on while helping you build systems to make the changes you need.

Whether you are figuring out the beginning of something new, the heartbreak of something ending, or the boredom or guilt of some longer term relationships - Im here to help you through.

Relationships are deeply complex and together we can pinpoint what you want out of your relationships, how to repair them, and get you where you want to be.

This includes:

• Dating and attachment struggles

• Relationship trauma and betrayal

• Communication breakdowns

• Boundaries

• Parenting

• Child/parent relationships

• Rebuilding trust - with others and yourself

Anxiety isn't just worry - its your nervous system trying to keep you safe

Anxiety can look like a panic attack or difficulty being in a crowded room but it can also look like a 2am spiral when deep down you know everything is fine or the that long mental check list that never seems to end.

Anxiety can tell you that if you plan enough or prepare enough you will feel better but in reality anxiety destroys your ability to enjoy your life.

I help you learn how to find relief from:

• Chronic overthinking, perfectionism, difficulty making decisions, or overplanning

• Tension, racing thoughts, and fatigue

• People pleasing and difficulties setting boundaries

• High functioning on the outside - overwhelmed on the inside

• Fear that if you stop everything will fall apart

You are probably the person everyone depends on - the driven professional and capable parent but deep down you are bone tired.

Together we can detach from your anxiety and learn gentler, better strategies to managing your life goals so you can find joy and rest in the life you have built
