Building the emotional resilience to navigate life’s transitions and the insight to deepen your connections.
A Modern, Science-Backed Approach to Healing
Arlene offers a sophisticated, integrative space where the science of the mind meets the complexity of the heart. By drawing on psychobiology and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), she helps individuals move beyond "just talking" to truly understanding their nervous system, regulating their emotions, and healing from trauma.
For couples, Arlene brings a fresh, systems-based perspective. Influenced by the work of leading relational experts like Esther Perel, she focuses on the "why" behind the "what" — helping partners rebuild trust, improve communication, and rediscover intimacy through practical, modern tools.
Clinical Focus:
The Modern Couple: Improving communication and rebuilding trust using contemporary relational insights.
Sexual Health & Identity: A safe, non-judgmental space for exploring sexual health and personality dynamics.
Emotional Regulation: Utilizing DBT and CBT to manage anxiety, depression, and intense emotional cycles.
Trauma-Informed Care: Navigating the path to resilience with an understanding of how the body holds stress.
