Trauma Therapy for Adults
Virtual sessions for clients in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens, New York City
My name is Cara and I am happy that you are here. I am a Certified Trauma Therapist and I believe in order for therapy to be effective it needs to be tailored according to my client’s needs. I do not use a one size fits all approach rather, my clients are the experts on their own lived experiences. Therapy is an individual journey, my role is to help clients identify their goals and help guide clients to accomplishing them.
I use psychodynamic therapy, CBT, CPT, EMDR, Family Systems, IFS, Motivational Interviewing, Reality Therapy, Somatic Therapy, Strength Based.
I work with the following populations: Adults & Matured Adults; those living with Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia, Depression, Anxiety, Survivors of Domestic Violence, Sexual Abuse & Trafficking
