Trauma and PTSD
Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I have been working with individuals who have trauma and PTSD for over 20 years. For many years this was my main focus and as a evidence-based therapist I learned many different ways of treatment and developed a hybrid approach that I taught to other therapist for years. I start by helping you reduce your symptoms, then if your willing we re-process your trauma and help you look at it in a different way by identifying what is your "stuck point" and working to move that along. That in itself can also reduce remaining symptoms. With what is left, I help you move forward with your remaining symptoms and do what make you happy, despite of your symptoms. It may make you anxious to do something but at the end of the day, the joy you felt makes it worth it. Again, remember, you would be doing this with much less anxiety than when you started therapy. This a is a proven approach that has worked with so many individuals with trauma.

Using EMDR, IFS-informed, and somatic (body-based) strategies, we will collaboratively explore what you need and want to feel safe to continue on your healing journey. Your body is wise and many habits were likely effective coping strategies in the past but are now no longer serving you. We will work together to help your body recalibrate its sense of safety and enjoy a regulated nervous system.

Trauma and PTSD
Carmalyn Lashley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As an EMDR trained therapist, I use a research-backed therapy approach that has been shown to be effective in treating trauma and PTSD. EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing and it works by helping the brain reprocess traumatic memories in a safe and controlled environment. During an EMDR session, I guide my clients through a structured process that involves recalling traumatic memories while simultaneously using bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements, tapping, or auditory tones). This helps to reduce the intensity of the traumatic memory and allows the brain to process it in a way that is less distressing. With continued EMDR therapy, clients often report a reduction in PTSD symptoms, anxiety, and depression. My goal as an EMDR therapist is to provide a safe and supportive environment where clients can work through their trauma and move towards healing and recovery.
