Specialty focus includes Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) and trauma-related nervous system dysregulation.
Primary Fit Anchor
I provide trauma-informed psychotherapy for adults diagnosed with Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) or experiencing functional neurological symptoms such as seizures, movement changes, tremors, or paralysis when neurological testing does not show structural disease.
Strong Fit Contexts
Strong fit for individuals experiencing:
• Functional Neurological Disorder (FND)
• Functional movement symptoms
• Functional weakness or paralysis
• Functional tremor or gait disturbances
• Stress-triggered neurological symptoms
• trauma-related nervous system dysregulation
Clients often arrive after neurology has ruled out structural neurological disease.
Not the Right Fit
This practice may not be appropriate for:
• untreated epilepsy without neurological care
• neurological symptoms without medical evaluation
• acute psychiatric crisis
• active psychosis
• medical detox or withdrawal treatment
Therapeutic Approach
Treatment focuses on stabilizing and retraining the nervous system.
Approaches may include:
• neuropsychotherapy
• somatic therapy
• nervous system regulation training
• trauma-informed psychotherapy
• psychoeducation about functional neurological symptoms
The goal is to help the nervous system regain flexibility, safety, and predictability.
