I'm Bridget Kuzma, founder of Women's Trauma Therapy. I help women understand and shift patterns shaped by trauma so they can feel more connected to themselves, their needs, and what matters to them.

My approach integrates Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, expressive arts therapy, and traditional talk therapy. Because trauma affects more than how we think, our work can include attention to emotions, nervous system responses, sensation, movement, and creative expression. This allows us to work with patterns that insight alone doesn't always access.

My professional background spans more than two decades of work in mental health, healthcare, and community settings. I began working with children and families affected by serious illness at the National Cancer Institute and later spent more than five years at The Children’s Inn at the National Institutes of Health, supporting families navigating serious medical illness.

I earned my master's degree in Art Therapy from Pratt Institute and completed clinical training in community and medical settings in New York, including Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital. I later worked with Mount Sinai Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine, providing psychotherapy and creative arts therapy to patients and families navigating serious illness and end-of-life care.

My work is grounded in over five years of postgraduate training and ongoing clinical consultation in somatic approaches to trauma, including advanced training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. I maintain a limited caseload so that therapy can be individualized, thoughtfully paced, and responsive to each person.

Today, my practice focuses on women with complex and developmental trauma, attachment and relational wounds, and longstanding patterns that can make it difficult to feel connected to themselves, their needs, and their own experience.

If you recognize yourself in any of this, you don't need to know exactly where to begin. We can start there.
