Trauma-focused therapy in New York and New Jersey that works with the nervous system, not just the mind.
-
A space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and move through patterns that no longer serve you.
Who We Are
We are a trauma-focused group practice offering thoughtful, depth-oriented care. Our work is grounded in curiosity, mindfulness, and respect for each person’s pace of change. The Breath Between reflects the small but meaningful pauses where change becomes possible—the moment between trigger and response, between past and present. Therapy helps expand that space, allowing for greater awareness, regulation, and more flexible ways of responding over time.

Meet Your New Therapist: Dawn Sanchez
My name is Dawn Sánchez (she/her), a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder of The Breath Between Psychotherapy. I have been practicing for over a decade and hold a degree from Adelphi University School of Social Work.
My approach integrates EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic therapy, attachment-based work, and mindfulness to provide specialized trauma therapy for adults seeking meaningful and lasting change.
My work is intentionally slow-paced and collaborative, designed for those who value curiosity, patience, and meaningful change over quick fixes. Together, we focus on healing the deeper roots of distress, restoring safety in the body, and helping you build a more secure relationship with yourself.
