Lisa Abrams-Misbeek
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Trauma-Focused Therapy helps to focus on the traumatic event and what it means to you. as well as techniques that can help people with PTSD disconnect from trauma. There are several techniques that help, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. These will help you learn to get through reexperiencing the event and focus on the positive things in life.

Counselor/Therapist, PhD, CST, CADC-III, CTA-CC
PTSD generally refers to a reaction to a single traumatic event. A memory of the event, conscious or unconscious, rises up and the person believes that it is happening now. Battlefield trauma is the clearest example of this. CPTSD (Complex Post traumatic Stress Disorder) refers to a stress disorder linked to sustained patterns of abuse, trauma and neglect. Sometimes the roots of the trauma are obvious,but not always. There is inter-generational trauma, intrauterine trauma, medical trauma and religious trauma for example. Trauma knows no time. When we are triggered, the pain and discomfort can be as real as it was when the initial events occurred. Exploring whatever adverse experiences occurred in early life, adulthood or in past generations can help you achieve a freedom from these trauma reactions. To help resolve them, I use EMDR, CBT, hypnotherapy and somatic techniques.

Jennifer Masters
Life Coach, Ba Psychology, CF Thanatology, D Kessler – Grief Grief Coach Certif,M Devine – Grief Coach Certif
Traumatic grief can happen when a death is sudden, unexpected, violent, unexplained, or impossible to make sense of. This may include losses connected to suicide, overdose, accidents, homicide, sudden medical events, or deaths where the cause or circumstances feel unclear. Any death can feel traumatic, but traumatic grief often carries an extra layer of shock because the person was here, and then suddenly they were not.
I support adults navigating traumatic grief, including the fear, confusion, anger, guilt, unanswered questions, looping thoughts, and emotional overwhelm that can follow this kind of loss. When a death feels random, preventable, unclear, or deeply unfair, the mind often tries to search for reasons, blame, facts, or something that will make the loss feel less unbearable.
As a certified grief coach, I help clients understand why traumatic grief can feel different from other grief experiences. I acknowledge and normalize what they are thinking and feeling, explain these reactions in plain language, and offer practical tools to help manage triggers, intrusive thoughts, overwhelm, guilt, anger, and the search for answers after a traumatic or unclear death.

Sue De Santo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with individuals carrying the weight of past trauma, painful relationships, and experiences that still live in the body as anxiety, numbness, or feeling constantly on guard. I bring compassion and relief to the places that feel stuck or overwhelmed. . My goal is to offer a steady, caring space where you don’t have to do it alone and where healing becomes possible not just in your mind, but in your body and relationships too.

Liza Roth, MA, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Many of us have experienced some form of trauma and don't realize how it currently impacts us. If you have experienced complex trauma throughout your childhood, healing doesn't happen quickly and it can be frustrating to work through. As a trauma-informed and EMDR-trained therapist, I support clients in processing and healing from traumatic experiences — gently, at your pace, with deep respect for your nervous system. It's not something you have to do alone.

Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to reduce the effects of trauma. Some of us have trauma that affects our bodies, others are emotional and some are more spiritual. Boundary violations of any kind can lead to PTSD, whether they are big "T" traumas or small "t" traumas, our brain can process through the event(s), but sometimes it gets stuck, so EMDR can break the paralysis. We can get stuck in the left brain, right brain or amygdala and end up paralyzed. We use the eye movement to allow our three brains to calm down and listen to and soothe one another. Getting those three parts of your brain all active usually break the stranglehold of trauma.

Brandon Guin
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Traumatic experiences can leave us paralyzed and pessimistic about our future. It doesn't have to be that way. I have training in using EMDR, an evidenced-based approach to treating trauma and PTSD. This approach helps the mind and body process what has happened while decreasing the risk of re-traumatizating the individual. In this manner, the individual is able to access internal and external supports and resources for the mind and body that may not have been available during the traumatic event or events.

Erika Shershun
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I haven't met a client who couldn't benefit from some degree of healing from trauma, whether relational, developmental, systemic, big T, complex trauma, PTSD... we all carry trauma in varying degrees until we're able to integrate it. My work is trauma informed, with a foundation in somatic psychotherapy which is needed for lasting results - trauma impacts the body as well as the brain. If you ignore the body in therapy the thoughts and emotions may improve for a time, but the patterns of constriction that impact the body will remain and sooner or later the distressing thoughts and emotions will return. I also draw on EMDR, neurobiology, energy psychology, self-compassion, mindfulness and other modalities. My work is compassionate yet direct and results driven.

Dr. Daniele Levy, Bay Area Cognitive Therapy
Psychologist, PhD, MBA
In treating trauma and PTSD, I use Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), a proven, structured approach that helps individuals reframe and process their traumatic experiences. Through this evidence-based treatment, we work together to challenge unhelpful beliefs about safety, power, trust, esteem and intimacy, and process the emotions tied to the trauma. By focusing on these areas, CPT helps reduce symptoms of PTSD and empowers clients to regain control over their lives, improving emotional resilience and overall well-being.

Monica Thoelke
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Treating Trauma and PTSD is a multidimensional process that involves elements of Exposure therapy or Cognitive processing therapies joined with Somatic or body based approaches. My trauma treatment approaches have evolved from studying multiple methodologies for processing, giving space to and releasing trauma triggers. Healing and transformation take place at multiple levels.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I work with adults affected by trauma, including post-traumatic stress and complex trauma. Traumatic experiences can continue to shape how people respond internally and in relationships, often long after the original events have passed.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore how trauma is held and organised internally, including protective responses that may have developed over time. Rather than assuming readiness or direction, sessions focus on understanding what is present and how different internal responses interact. We may work through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most manageable and useful.

TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
PTSD requires lots of patience as the individual in treatment learns to interact with the world again. Traumatic experiences shut down everything in the person's mind/body, and in their social interactions, and create a lot of isolation. To counter all this, I recommend a unique program for each patient that includes talking at least twice a week, micro-stimulation to develop new pathways in the brain, supplements to heal the brain, music therapy (see Steven Halpern), sleep therapy, and the creation of "flow experiences" to strengthen the person's sense of self. Trauma is not easy to turn around, But, over a consistent period of time, expressing one's emotions and following a set routine (including the above), will always lead to healing.

Celeste Tomasulo
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
When we think of trauma, we typically think of Big “T” traumas: accidents, assaults, and overt physical danger. There are also Little “t” traumas which are chronic and ongoing moments where we’ve felt unsafe, unprotected, or in a constant state of survival (fight, flight, freeze, fawn). The brain interprets trauma from both real and perceived events. Trauma is not the event that happened, it's the internal reaction your body has in response. Using a trauma informed approach, I guide you through resourcing your body to address stored and unresolved trauma in a safe and grounded environment. This helps the body to reprocess these events and heal the parts holding onto these distressing memories and emotions.
