Molly Schmidt
Therapist
Trauma and PTSD are responses to distressing or deeply impactful events, often resulting in intrusive memories, avoidance behaviors, mood changes, and heightened arousal. As a therapist, I provide compassionate support and utilize mindfulness techniques and other evidence-based interventions to assist clients in processing their experiences, developing coping strategies, and restoring a sense of safety and control. Through therapy, individuals can embark on a journey of healing, resilience-building, and reclaiming their well-being after experiencing trauma.

Charis Khoury
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I see trauma in a broad sense- any experience that was too overwhelming to process in the moment and is stored in the body/mind. Gently, we can integrate and find freedom from these experiences.

Stephen B. Lewis Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Many of my clients first come to see me to help resolve an addiction or reduce anxiety and it turns out that an underlying childhood trauma or PTSD is the root cause of their issue. Using hypnosis I help any client with trauma or PTSD resolve and heal past events, helping them integrate those negative memories so they become part of the distant past rather than something that affects them viscerally in the present.

Jessica Thompson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
The body is wise and holds so much of our trauma until we are ready to feel safe and ready enough to explore it. Often we hold pain and overwhelm in our bodies from childhood. We need to slowly explore our pain through the body and emotional experience, allowing whatever energy is ready to move, move. Inner child work is particularly powerful here.
