Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
When the foundation of trust shaken (if not feeling broken) through experiences of trauma, the approach to restoring one's life must always be one of sensitivity, patience, and compassion. Without this, there will always be a risk that it will never feel safe enough to heal.

Faye Williams
Therapist, Associate Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
While PTSD is considered a disordered way of coping with trauma, what if your body is doing what they need to keep you safe? Trauma is always overwhelming and complex, even if it has occurred from an isolated event. It takes time and gentleness and patience to unravel its effects.

Sushma Cheturvedula
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
As a therapist with experience talking to clients who have emotional disturbance, Trauma/PTSD, and relationship issues, I'd provide a safe environment to explore and process traumatic experiences. By encouraging emotional expression with Gestalt techniques, challenging negative beliefs with CBT, and promoting present-moment awareness with mindfulness, I help clients heal, cope with symptoms, and build resilience.
