Dr Colette Lord
Licensed Psychologist
“I'm a Certified EMDR Trauma Therapist specializing in attachment/developmental trauma. I am also a certified Transgender Care Therapist.”
About Me
I understand how early experiences can shape your present, especially when dealing with attachment and developmental trauma. My aim is to help you process these deeply rooted patterns. As a Certified EMDR Trauma Therapist, I offer a focused approach to navigate past events safely. I also provide dedicated, affirming support for transgender individuals, fostering a path towards authentic self-discovery.
Approach
Early relational wounds often require careful sequencing, so I guide the work in measured steps that honor safety and your pace. In my Del Mar office, English sessions feel focused and collaborative—we attend to bodily signals, relationship patterns, and small shifts in how you relate to yourself. Therapy moves between targeted processing, practical skill practice, and reflective integration; between sessions I offer brief, concrete suggestions to support stability and experimentation. This way of working tends to suit adults seeking steady, affirming support for trauma recovery and gender-related growth.
