I believe that everyone has a natural innate capacity to heal and live a fulfilling, happy life.

My holistic and relational approach can help you get there!

Clients often come in struggling with prolonged symptoms of depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, medically unexplained physical ailments, and feelings of disconnection from themselves, their bodies, their emotions, or their loved ones. Many arrive feeling frustrated, thinking something is wrong with them for their lack of progress. What they may not realize is that these struggles are often connected to unresolved trauma.

Therapist Alein Haddad-Perez specializes in working with clients who, despite having been in therapy for some time, continue to struggle with their mental health.

“I have dedicated my career to specializing in complex trauma, childhood relational trauma, and dissociation.

I bring expertise in attachment, mind-body connection, and neurobiology of trauma to the way we understand and support clients’ struggles.”
