Helping You Heal from Trauma and Navigate PANS/PANDAS
Specialized virtual therapy throughout New York State
Whether you're seeking support for yourself or wondering how best to help your child, teen or young adult, you don't have to figure it out alone. I provide compassionate, evidence-informed therapy tailored to where you are in your healing journey.
Together, we'll determine the right place to begin—whether that's trauma recovery, supporting your child, or helping your family navigate the unique challenges of PANS/PANDAS.
Does this feel familiar?
You may be here because you're trying to heal from trauma—or because you're supporting a child or loved one living with PANS/PANDAS.
Either way, life may feel like it's been taken over by survival mode.
Maybe:
• Your mind and body are always on alert.
• You feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally exhausted.
•Past experiences continue to affect how safe, connected, or grounded you feel today.
• You're supporting a child with PANS/PANDAS whose moods, OCD, or rage can shift overnight.
• Your home feels unpredictable, and you're walking on eggshells.
You've done everything you know how to do. You've kept going, even when it's been incredibly hard.
But you're ready for life to feel steadier again.
How We Work Together
Whether you're healing from trauma or navigating PANS/PANDAS, there isn't a one-size-fits-all starting point.
Every person—and every family—comes with a different story, strengths, and needs.
Together, we'll decide what will be most helpful based on where you are today.
If you're seeking trauma therapy...
We'll begin by helping your nervous system feel safer and more regulated. As healing unfolds, we may use EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help you process difficult experiences at a pace that feels manageable.
If you're navigating PANS/PANDAS...
We'll determine where support is most needed—whether that's working directly with your child, teen, or young adult, helping your family respond more effectively to symptoms, or beginning with parent and family support.
Many families expect therapy to begin with their child. Sometimes that's exactly where we start. As treatment progresses, parents often become an increasingly important part of the healing process.
Every treatment plan is tailored to your unique situation, needs, and goals.
