Certified Clinical Trauma Professional
private practice
Brooklyn, New York, United States
Faige Flakser, LCSW, graduated from Simmons College with a Master’s degree in social work and is a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional working in private practice, based in NY.
Faige’s experience in psychotherapy is in the field of trauma, across the dissociative spectrum, working with adult survivors of childhood abuse, including former cult members and individuals with DID. Faige also specializes in working with other therapists to process the impact that trauma work has on them.
Faige trained at the Institute of Contemporary Psychotherapy’s Trauma Studies Program, and then came back to supervise and teach. She now directs the Trauma Division at ICP.
As Faige’s clinical experience and trainings developed, she was met with increasingly complex trauma cases, further along on the spectrum of dissociation. ISSTD became the base, where she studied at their Advanced Studies for Trauma and Dissociation, eventually joining the faculty, and then going on to chair the Professional Training Program. Faige has also chaired the Organized and Extreme Abuse (OEA) SIG and the Vicarious Trauma and Resiliency (VTR) SIG.
Faige has studied extensively the art and science of trauma work and has trained in specific modalities that treat trauma, including EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, Polyvagal, Hypnosis and IFS, where she also facilitates trainings for other clinicians. Faige continues to learn and bring cutting edge research to her work.
Most recently, Faige was an honored listee by Marquis Who’s Who in 2023.
Faige combines her knowledge, experience, passion, and skills to help her supervisees, trainees, and most of all, her clients.
