Online Therapy for Adults Healing from Anxiety, Trauma, and Childhood Wounds

​

Lina Lewis-Arévalo, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTP, Licensed Professional Counselor with 7 years experience providing telehealth therapy across New Jersey

 

I specialize in helping adults (ages 20–60) heal from anxiety, trauma, and the lasting impact of difficult childhood experiences.

​

Together, we work to understand and change the underlying patterns—emotional, cognitive, and relational—that keep you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected.

 

Who I Help

Adults impacted by childhood trauma often experience anxiety, difficulty sleeping, relationship challenges, work stress, and Inner Critics that torment them. I help those who grew up in environments that were emotionally unsafe, inconsistent, or overwhelming and who now experience anxiety, trauma responses, or relationship difficulties.

​​

Common concerns include:

• Chronic anxiety or hypervigilance

• Trauma and PTSD

• Attachment wounds and relationship patterns

• Emotional numbness or overwhelm

• Difficulty trusting others or oneself

• Unhelpful spiraling negative thoughts

• Loud and persistent Inner Critic

 

How Counseling Works

During counseling sessions I focus on identifying unhelpful patterns of thinking and reacting, building coping skills, and addressing the underlying causes of emotional distress.

Steps:

1. Initial assessment and goal setting

2. Evidence-based therapeutic approaches

3. Ongoing support and skill development

​

​My Approach to Therapy

Therapy focuses on understanding how early experiences shape the nervous system, emotions, and relationships in adulthood, while developing new skills for safety, regulation, and connection.

• Trauma-informed therapy

• Attachment-based approaches

• Anxiety and nervous system regulation

​

​​Inclusive, Affirming Care

My practice welcomes adults of all races, genders, sexual orientations, and cultural backgrounds. Therapy is grounded in respect, safety, and collaboration.
