About
Dr. Elaine Lavin has a decade of experience helping clients liberate themselves from the impact of trauma. Have your relationships been shadowed by your past? Do you find it hard trust? Is a deep sense of shame eating away at you? Self-blame? Difficulties with intimacy? These are some of the many impacts that survivors of sexual abuse and assault, physical and emotional abuse and neglect, intimate partner violence, invalidating parenting, and other interpersonal traumas struggle to manage. I specialize in helping clients recognize and change trauma-created stuck patterns into new approaches that help you build the life you want. My approach centers around exploring connections between childhood, trauma, societal structures, and your current challenges. I take a warm and empathic stance while being an active and authentic participant. Details of the trauma are discussed at your pace. I also incorporate training in practical strategies you can use to gain perspective and flexibility.
