Have you had a disturbing experience that makes coping with everyday life difficult?
Or perhaps you witnessed something awful that you just can’t get out of your mind?
If so, you may be suffering from trauma.
Rivkah Kaufman, the founder of RK Connections, is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, with a specialty in trauma and PTSD. She also has a postmasters international certification in EMDR from the EMDRIA.
As a trauma therapist, Rivkah’s initial goal is to make you feel heard, safe, and understood; everything else accomplished in treatment will follow from this basis.
Rivkah Kaufman’s Approach
In her practice, Rivkah Kaufman works with clients who struggle with the psychological, emotional, and physical consequences of past and or ongoing trauma, as they try to avoid repeating personal and professional mistakes that serve only to worsen their traumatic experiences.
If you are experiencing challenges such as these, Rivkah can help you gradually process your trauma in a supportive and validating environment that is empowering and ultimately freeing.
Rivkah Kaufman combines trauma-focused, mindfulness, and insight-based psychotherapies, and use these approaches to help her clients cope with everyday challenges and see how they relate to long-standing behavior patterns. In addition to her trauma specialty, Rivkah treats clients with mental health symptoms, including, but not limited to, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, personality disorders, particularly borderline personality disorder, and bipolar disorder, as these conditions manifest in personal (family and relationships), professional (work and layoffs), and academic sectors of life.
