Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MFT #123769, CPT
I have found that Online therapy has significant benefits that are not always obvious to clients before starting. These benefits often make Telehealth more effective than traditional in-person therapy styles.

Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
We have 14 + years of experience supporting folks with Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery. We recognize dehumanization and exploitation are part of a capitalist ideology and colonial and imperial strategies and abuses are perpetrated by people affected with that mindset, and can take the form of abuse within the family, the workplace, groups, and other relational dynamics where power over may be abused/misused to transgress. We recognize when violence is happening anywhere to one being, it is likely happening elsewhere, so we only work with people committed to anti-oppression and ending abuse and subjugation everywhere! We are skilled and certified in complex trauma work, parts work including: TIST - Trauma Informed Stabilization Treatment (Janina Fisher's Work), IFS -- Internal Family Systems; trained in IPNB, Bonnie Badenochs Dyadic Parts Work, EFIT, SensoriMotor... Certified in Somatic and Creative Trauma Recovery Support and Intersectional and Social Justice Frameworks, Multi-generational/historic trauma and wisdom Support, Attachment Theory, Mindfulness, Polyvagal Theory, SSP, CranioSacral -- please see our listing at Upledger Institute, distance TCM, herbalism and homeopathy support, Relational/Mediation/Partners/Couples work certification, Energy Work, Sidereal Astrology integration as asked for, and Integrated Ethnotraditional Healing Ways. We have also completed the two year fellowship for Functional Psychiatry through Psychiatry Redefined and review ISEAI and NORMI info, so we integrate support for folks with mold and some other environmental toxin impacts. We receive referrals and are also glad to coordinate healthcare with other professionals if requested by the client. We are trained in herablism of different cosmologies and have supported people who work with others in integrity with plant medicine. We do not administer medicine journeys -- though we have extensive background in supporting people to prepare and to metabolize/integrate afterwards. We have extensive experience helping people recover from Narcissistic Trauma, Workplace/Institutional Bullying, Poverty Trauma -- we only work with people who are committed to ending violence and brutality everywhere. We recognize if power over abuse is happening to one person, it's likely happening to many elsewhere in the world, or even close by, and every one person's recovery is part of pushing back on and ending systemic violence. So the individual and systemic recovery must happen together.
Our specializations are support for CSAS -- Adult Survivors of Childhood Sexual Abuse, Survivors or folks currently enduring narcissistic or bullying trauma, Survivors of colonial trauma, and often underserved POC/GM folks. We are a WOC/GM practice. We have a strong record for working with people with intensive DID, DDNOS and other undiagnosed dissociation, CPTSD and trauma survivor experiences and feelings -- very welcome here, as long as folks are committed to healing within a movement of standing for all being's right to dignity and self determination.
We are a Decolonizing Oriented and Intersectional Framework Practice prioritizing care for those who are systemically impacted and those who are active bystanders and activists. Red lines are red lines -- no excuses for perpetration. That said, if people are on the journey to ****actively (not just hypothetically or theoretically) repair, be an engaged and active bystander and not enact hegemonic violence with strong commitment, we are here to support that journey.

Erika Shershun
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I specialize in helping trauma survivors, including childhood and/or adult sexual trauma survivors, reclaim the life they were meant to live. Despite the technological divide, I have a felt sense of being in resonance with my clients, sensing when they can use support, or a life vest, and when they feel resourced enough to delve into some deeper waters. I draw on somatic psychotherapy, EMDR, neuroscience, energy psychology, and parts work along with the more traditional psychodynamic approach. Feel free to contact me for a free 15 min phone consultation to learn more.

Trauma is profound: it shapes how we organize our experiences, relate to other people, and respond to life's ebbs and flows. It can also leave us feeling stuck and painfully limited. Together we can make sense of your story, identify unconscious patterns that no longer suit you, and create room in your mind to live with greater freedom. If you're looking to effect deep change in your life, I welcome you to reach out for a free consultation.
