Relational Trauma Therapy for Women in Connecticut
Specialized support for women healing from emotional abuse, attachment wounds, and high-conflict relationships.
You look capable on the outside.
You handle work. You show up for others. You manage responsibilities.
But in your relationships, you:
Second-guess yourself and wonder if you’re “too sensitive”
Overanalyze conversations and feel responsible for other people’s emotions
Struggle to set boundaries
You may call it anxiety.
Often, it’s relational trauma.

WHAT IS RELATIONAL TRAUMA?
Relational trauma doesn’t always look dramatic.
It can develop in high-conflict, emotionally unsafe, or controlling relationships. It can form through subtle patterns of criticism, inconsistency, manipulation, or emotional neglect.
Over time, your nervous system adapts. You become hyperaware. You over-function. You try to prevent conflict before it happens.
Those patterns made sense at the time.
They don’t have to define your future.
HOW I WORK
I specialize in trauma-focused therapy using EMDR and parts work.
I provide relational trauma therapy for women in Connecticut, including Hamden and New Haven County, with both in-person and telehealth options
This is not surface-level coping skills. We identify how relational trauma shaped your beliefs, your nervous system, and your relationship patterns.
We work toward:
Clearer boundaries
Self-trust
Emotional regulation
Secure attachment patterns
Relationships that feel stable and reciprocal
You don’t need a blank slate therapist. You need someone trained in trauma who understands how relational patterns form and how to shift them.
