Trauma Therapy for High-Functioning Adults in Massachusetts in Massachusetts and Maryland
Using EMDR, Brainspotting, and Therapy Intensives to help perfectionists and people-pleasers heal from childhood emotional neglect and attachment wounds.
You’re the one who always shows up, for your job, your people, your responsibilities. You get things done. You hold it together. You’re the one they count on.
But inside? You’re running on fumes.
There’s a constant hum of anxiety you can’t turn off. You replay conversations. You wonder if you’re too much or not enough. You’re tired of managing everyone else’s needs while pushing down your own.
You know it’s a pattern. You’ve read the books, had the insights, connected the dots. But knowing hasn’t made it easier to change.

About Lorrie Bertrand, LICSW
I’m Lorrie Bertrand, LICSW, LCSW-C. I am an EMDR-certified therapist, first-generation Haitian-American, lover of cozy hobbies, and donuts. Beyond that, I am a real human who knows what it’s like to feel stuck in constant go mode. While you don’t need to have lived it to do this work, I’ve found it’s made me a more attuned & compassionate therapist.
Over the years, I’ve helped many women come home to themselves and say yes to themselves, sometimes for the very first time. My work blends deep compassion with clinically grounded care that goes beyond surface-level fixes.
What You Can Expect
Space to unlearn old patterns and move through emotional blocks
A nonjudgmental space where you’re invited to soften, be seen, and heal at your own pace
A healing relationship that centers your truth, not just your symptoms
A person-centered approach where all your guarded, tender, and even your humorous parts are welcome (because healing can be serious work without being heavy all the time).
If you’re willing to put in the work, therapy can help you get there!
Schedule your free consultation to see if it’s the right fit for you.
