Esti Schonbrun LCSW-C

Therapist for Betrayal Trauma IFS and Somatic Therapy in Bethesda MD

Welcome

You’re thoughtful, capable, deeply aware. And you’re exhausted.
Betrayal, burnout, anxiety, emotional shutdown. It’s all there under the surface. You’ve been holding yourself together for years and you’re starting to feel the cracks.

You don’t need crisis therapy. You need thoughtful, online therapy that meets you where you are, without performance.

I help deep-feeling, high-capacity people reconnect with what’s real inside them.

My clients are often:

Managing invisible anxiety no one else sees
Recovering from betrayal or relational rupture
Burned out from overfunctioning
Craving self-trust, clarity, and a way back to their real self

You’ve done the therapy. You know the language. But it hasn’t fully landed in your body. That’s where I work.

This isn’t surface work. This is somatic, relational therapy where you let the mask drop, without having to collapse.

Therapy in Bethesda MD for Trauma Betrayal and Attachment Healing

My approach to online therapy is:

Somatic. We work with your nervous system, not just your thoughts.

Relational. Healing doesn’t happen in isolation.

Real. No performance, no pressure, no pushing.

We work at your pace.

We track what your body has been holding.

We listen to the parts of you that are tired of holding everything together.

You don’t have to explain everything. I already get it.
You don’t need to be “sick enough” for support.
You don’t need to share your whole story to be understood.
You just need a space that can hold the weight you’ve been carrying.

This is the work we do together.

My approach blends evidence-based, somatic therapies including:

IFS (Internal Family Systems)
SE (Somatic Experiencing)
NARM (NeuroAffective Relational Model)

with clear, attuned therapeutic presence and over a decade of experience.
But more than that, I bring intuition, deep listening, and a nervous system that can actually hold yours.

If you’re ready to feel like yourself again,

I offer a free 15-minute consultation to see if this online work is a good fit.
