Welcome! Im Shayda- Healing from trauma isn't something we're meant to do alone. When we safely reconnect with our nervous system with the support of an attuned therapist, therapy can be deeply powerful. I use trauma therapies like EMDR, Brainspotting, and Somatic Experiencing to help you process pain and find lasting relief. I work with adults healing from PTSD, C-PTSD, childhood trauma, and attachment wounds. I also support survivors of sexual assault, toxic relationships, and those facing d...
It’s “not easy being green,” having feelings of “not belonging” and “not knowing how to fit in” – questioning “who am I” and “how can I be seen?” Wondering where your people are and then wondering “are these my people?” How to connect while allowing yourself to be vulnerable while allowing yourself to be safe while allowing yourself to experience the full experience of life … Mental / emotional health is a vital necessity for success in life; to be able to make clear decisions without doub...

Being from upstate NY, I also understand some of the isolative parts of the experience, and adj...

You and your life isn’t one note. You are multifaceted and the demands you face happen to be as well – particularly when you are a student. Currently, the sound-track of your life has moved away from the sounds of a harmonious symphony -or maybe from an upbeat pop song- to something more unnerving and stressful (like the alarm you use to wake up to in the morning or the background music in a horror film—building tension, bracing yourself from some known or unknown threat). It makes sense that li...

You’ve been holding it together for everyone else, but inside, it’s a different story. You’re angry, anxious, or shut down—barely sleeping, snapping at people you care about, and feeling disconnected from who you used to be. Maybe you're facing changes you never expected, like adapting to life with blindness or another disability. You’re avoiding intimacy, struggling in public or social situations, and questioning past and future decisions. Whether you're a veteran, first responder, or just tire...
