SERVICES
Specialized care for life's most demanding crossings
Each service I offer grows from the same foundation: trauma-informed, body-based, deeply human. Whether you are healing from the past, navigating a legal process, or growing as a clinician, this work meets you where you are.
01
Trauma Therapy
At Threshold Psychotherapy, healing is grounded in Somatic Experiencing (SE): A body-oriented approach developed by Dr. Peter Levine that works with the nervous system rather than requiring detailed verbal recounting of traumatic events.
SE understands trauma not as the event itself, but as what happens in the nervous system when the body's survival responses become stuck or incomplete. The work involves gentle, titrated attention to body sensations, movement impulses, and the natural rhythms of activation and settling, creating the conditions for the nervous system to complete what it couldn't in the moment of the trauma.
Who this is for
➝ Adults living with PTSD or complex PTSD
➝ Survivors of childhood, relational, or developmental trauma
➝ People with chronic anxiety, hypervigilance, or emotional dysregulation
➝ Immigrants and refugees carrying displacement and survival trauma
➝ Adults with somatic symptoms, chronic pain, or stress-related illness
➝ Anyone who has tried talk therapy and found it didn't quite reach the right place
What to expect
Sessions are 50-55 minutes long and are conducted via telehealth. The pace is guided by your nervous system, without pressure or urgency. We build a foundation of safety and resource before approaching difficult material, and we pay close attention to what your body is communicating throughout. Most clients find SE to be gentler and less overwhelming than they expected.
I also integrate psychodynamic psychotherapy, psychoeducation about trauma and the nervous system, and, where relevant, Jungian frameworks for understanding the deeper meaning-making dimensions of difficult experience.
02
Immigration Evaluations
Immigration evaluations provide the court and USCIS with a clinical assessment of a person's psychological history, the impact of past trauma or hardship, and the potential consequences of deportation or denial. A well-crafted evaluation can be pivotal to the outcome of an immigration case.
I work closely with immigration attorneys throughout the evaluation process. My reports are comprehensive, clinically rigorous, and written to meet USCIS standards while honoring the full humanity of the person I am evaluating.
Types of evaluations offered
➝ Asylum evaluations (I-589)
➝ VAWA self-petition evaluations
➝ U-Visa and T-Visa evaluations
➝ Extreme hardship waiver evaluations (I-601/I-601A)
➝ Adults with somatic symptoms, chronic pain, or stress-related illness
➝ Cancellation of removal
The evaluation process
Each evaluation involves one or more clinical interviews (conducted via secure telehealth with interpreter support as needed), review of relevant records provided by counsel, administration of standardized psychological measures where appropriate, and a written report. Turnaround time and fee are discussed with the referring attorney at intake.
For attorneys
I welcome referrals from immigration attorneys throughout New Jersey. Please contact me directly to discuss a case or to establish a referral relationship.
03
Clinical Supervision
Accepting Supervisees starting July 1, 2026
Clinical supervision with me is relational, reflective, and honest. I take seriously both the technical dimensions of developing as a clinician and the deeper questions of professional identity, values, and sustainable practice.
I am particularly well-suited to supervise clinicians working with trauma, complex presentations, and diverse populations — areas where standard training often falls short and where good supervision is especially important.
Who I supervise
➝ LSWs working toward LCSW licensure in New Jersey
➝ Clinicians interested in developing trauma-informed practice
Format
I offer individual supervision (50 minutes) and small group supervision (90 minutes, 3–5 supervisees). Group supervision is offered at a reduced per-person rate and provides the additional benefit of peer consultation and collegial support. Both formats are conducted via telehealth.
Supervision is provided on a consistent weekly or biweekly schedule. I maintain thorough records of hours and provide documentation required for licensure applications.
