About
My Story
Many high-performance women believe that trauma is something they should just grin and bear. But you can have a brilliant career, a loving personal life, and a sense of freedom for your future. The reason you don't have these qualities now isn't your fault--it's just how trauma works on the brain.
Trust me--I know.
I was teaching at Yale University when I had a baby. After nearly dying in childbirth, I plunged into years-long postpartum depression. I looked everywhere for a coach who understand my particular condition:
career woman + devoted mother + PTSD + depression.
​
But care for women and especially mothers is scant, and trauma-care is often outdated, confusing, and expensive. That's why I devoted myself to researching and then applying the gentlest and most effective method that leads to a PTSD-free life.

My Practice
My "PTSD Recovery" protocol provides the gentlest and most effective method that leads to a PTSD-free life. It lasts just 12 sessions, with no gory details, prolonged coaching, or endless expense. We start by identifying the trauma-generated beliefs holding you back. Then we dismantle them by working step by step through issues such as Safety, Trust, Control, Intimacy, and Self-Esteem. Most clients see results within one session.
​
After completing "PTSD Recovery," clients describe how their stumbling blocks have become non-issues. They celebrate how much control they have over their destiny. Through my program, they develop skills to redirect their own brains from self-sabotage to self-actualization.
I do this work because I get to hear brilliant women say, "thank you for giving me my life back."
