Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with adults navigating trauma and PTSD, including the kind that doesn't always fit a single dramatic event, ongoing racialized stress, immigration-related trauma, or the accumulated weight of navigating institutions and environments not built with you in mind. My approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, trained through the Beck Institute, to help process what happened and rebuild a sense of safety and stability. Many of my clients are first-generation professionals or Latinx adults for whom trauma is layered with cultural and immigration history. I offer sessions in English or Spanish.

Kristen Jackson Banister
Counselor/Therapist, M.A. LPC SEP
Trauma and PTSD can impact how you feel in your body, how you relate to others, and how safe the world feels. You may experience hypervigilance, shutdown, reactivity, or patterns that feel hard to change. My approach is somatic and trauma-informed, meaning we work gently with your nervous system to build a sense of safety, regulation, and capacity before processing deeper experiences. Healing happens at a pace that your body can sustain.

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
Trauma has a way of rewriting your story without your permission. Even when you tell yourself you’ve moved past it, memories can suddenly feel overwhelming, trust becomes harder, and your mind and body stay on high alert. Dr. Shields understands how exhausting and isolating this experience can be. She provides compassionate, specialized support grounded in highly effective trauma-specific approaches, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). With care, empathy, and patience, she’ll help you rebuild your sense of safety, regain your clarity, and reclaim your story—on your own terms.

Patricia Fahmy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Trauma can continue to affect your life long after difficult experiences have ended. You may find yourself feeling emotionally overwhelmed, constantly on guard, disconnected from others, struggling with trust, or repeating patterns in relationships that you don't fully understand. Trauma can impact the mind, body, nervous system, and the way we relate to ourselves and others. I specialize in helping individuals and couples heal the effects of trauma through a holistic approach that integrates EMDR, somatic therapy, attachment work, and mindfulness. Together, we work to process painful experiences, strengthen emotional regulation, and create healthier, more secure ways of living and connecting.

Therapist, LAC
I provide compassionate, trauma-informed care for individuals navigating trauma and PTSD, grounded in empathy, safety, and understanding. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS) and EMDR, we work together to process difficult experiences while honoring the different parts of you that have developed to cope and protect.

My goal is to support your healing in a way that feels safe, empowering, and paced to your needs.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
A trauma-informed approach underlies all of my work as a therapist. I know that many clients come to therapy not specifically because of trauma, but because they feel lonely or inadequate, they are depressed or anxious, or just cannot seem to have the intimacy they crave. Sometimes acknowledging trauma comes later in the therapy work and that is okay. Just know that I trust that you will talk about it when you are ready.
I would like to join you in acknowledging how the past has affected your present and in charting a course to healing that works for you. You may wish to talk about particular pains from the past and you may wish to focus on the future. We will work together to find the balance that is right for you, so that you can live the life that you really want to live.

Jacqueline Elster
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
Helping you process, integrate and reduce the emotional impact of traumatic experiences in a safe and controlled environment is my goal. This may involve identifying and altering distressing thoughts and behaviors that have followed a traumatic experience. Working with you to gradually desensitize yourself to trauma-related triggers, can help reduce avoidance and dramatically decrease anxiety. My area of expertise is the treatment of trauma and PTSD. Working in residential rehabilitations for substance use disorders and then working at the VA laid the foundation for expertise in this area. I am trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Seeking Safety, Accelerated Resolution Therapy and Written Exposure Therapy.

Grace Judd
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LAMFT
Trauma leaves its mark in the body as much as the mind—through hypervigilance, anxiety, flashbacks, nightmares, dissociation, or difficulty trusting others. I provide a deeply trauma-informed space where your system’s protective strategies are honored, not pathologized. Using EMDR, IFS, and other evidence-based approaches, we gently process painful memories, strengthen internal safety, and build resilience in your nervous system. Together, we create a path toward integration, empowerment, and a life no longer defined by what happened to you.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
My background as a licensed psychologist and a trauma survivor uniquely positions me to offer compassionate and effective support to individuals who have experienced trauma, whether it be abandonment or physical, emotional, or sexual abuse. My personal journey through trauma has given me firsthand insight into the complex and often challenging process of healing. This, combined with my education and professional experience, enables me to approach therapy with deep empathy, understanding, and a genuine connection to my clients' experiences. I believe in the power of resilience and the potential for growth in the face of adversity, and I am dedicated to helping survivors on their path to recovery and empowerment.
With EMDR as my primary treatment modality, I bring a wealth of experience and expertise in guiding individuals towards trauma healing. My approach focuses on collaboratively identifying trauma targets for processing while also prioritizing resourcing techniques to reestablish a sense of safety and inner peace. Through EMDR therapy, I help clients transform the way traumatic memories are stored in the brain, ultimately freeing them from flashbacks, nightmares, and avoidance patterns associated with trauma. My commitment is to support individuals on their journey to reclaim their lives and find lasting relief from the effects of trauma.

Cordell Pearson
Counselor/Therapist, CMHC, LPC, NCC
Trauma can leave you feeling stuck—like no matter what you do, you can’t move past the pain or the memories. Whether it’s from a past event or years of unresolved hurt, trauma affects more than just your thoughts. It can take a toll on your emotions, relationships, your body, and sense of self. But healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.
At Freedom to Heal Counseling, I specialize in helping you break free from the hold that trauma has on your life. Through EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and other trauma-focused therapies, we can gently process painful experiences and release their grip, helping you feel lighter, more in control, and able to move forward.
