Relational Trauma Therapy in NY & NJ

You might find yourself asking:

“Why do I keep ending up in the same kinds of relationships?”
“Why do I react so strongly or shut down completely?”

Even when you understand things logically, your emotional responses can feel hard to control.

What is Relational Trauma?

Relational trauma develops when your emotional needs weren’t consistently met in early relationships. This can include childhood emotional neglect, inconsistent caregiving, or painful relationship experiences that shaped how you connect with others.

As an adult, this often shows up as:

  • overthinking interactions

  • fear of abandonment

  • difficulty trusting others

  • repeating unhealthy relationship patterns

How Relational Trauma Therapy Helps

In therapy, we work to:

  • understand your attachment patterns

  • identify emotional triggers in relationships

  • process past relational experiences

  • develop healthier ways of connecting
