Elizabeth Vahdatpour
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I have assisted several clients in processing and coping with Trauma and PTSD throughout my career. Trauma is complicated and shows up in ways we may not understand at times. To work on processing trauma, we will first discuss education about how trauma impacts our nervous system and behavioral patterns. Then we will focus on processing your story. As we discuss difficult topics, I will be sure to practice coping skills with you in session, so that when you leave session, you are prepared to address any triggers that may arise.

Sandy Kong
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 119380
Trauma can be any experience that shapes the way you view, relate, and develop a relationship with yourself, others, and the world. Exposure to either one big negative event or a cumulative of small negative events can cause people to live in fear, worry, paranoia, stress, and insecurity. Healing from trauma involves a gradual process of restoring safety, processing emotions, and rebuilding connections. Key strategies in therapy with me include practicing self-compassion, grounding techniques, and establishing a support system. Healing is not linear, and it often requires avoiding self-blame, maintaining routines, setting boundaries, and addressing trauma gently over time.

David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
Trauma is not limited to specific big life events that are obvious to everyone. Trauma can be chronic experiences in childhood of feeling dismissed, overlooked, or of being exposed to highly chaotic environments. Trauma isn't only about events that happened in the past, but how it can shape our nervous system and cause us to not trust others. Acceptance and commitment therapy can be highly effective in developing strategies to make sense of and move forward from trauma.

Tim Eby-McKenzie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Most of my clinical career has focused on finding more efficient and effective ways to address, understand and heal the impact of trauma in people's lives. Acute Stress Disorder and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) are two ways trauma manifests in people's lives when trauma gets "stuck" in the nervous system, and cannot resolve effectively and adaptively. I use EMDR to assist clients to overcome this "stuckness" and to move forward into healthier lives.

Allie Michie, MS
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT159347
Trauma reshapes the way we see ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. It can show up as hypervigilance, disconnection, patterns that feel impossible to break, or a sense that you're never quite safe. I work with clients using a trauma-informed approach, meaning we move at your pace, with your sense of safety always in mind, and we never go further than you're ready to go.

Rory Valentine Diller
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., LMFT Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #139783
Somatic Therapy incorporates body-based practices, Neuroscience, and Psychobiology into traditional Talk Therapy. This Holistic approach is particularly beneficial to Trauma Survivors struggling with symptoms of PTSD. Trauma impacts the Nervous System and brain functioning which often leaves traumatic experiences and trauma memories unprocessed in the body and unconscious mind, as Bessel van der Kolk famously stated, “The Body Keeps The Score.” This can lead to symptoms of PTSD (re-experiencing, flashbacks, angry outbursts, hyper vigilance, insomnia, anxiety, depression, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, dissociation, shame, and a fractured sense of Self) and requires understanding and focused attention to the mind-body connection during treatment and recovery.

I help clients gently process painful experiences while understanding how trauma has shaped their thoughts, emotions, and nervous system responses. Using a trauma-informed approach that integrates somatic therapy, attachment work, and evidence-based strategies, we work together to create safety, build resilience, and help you reconnect with yourself.

Jonathan Kruger Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Trauma affects our lives in many, many ways. There are complex traumas which occur when an individual endures ongoing, long-term and repetitive abuse of some nature- be it physical, sexual or emotional. Simple traumas, while limited to a single event, are just as devastating for the emotional well-being of the patient. Trauma can be debilitating, lead to addictions, cause unconscious behavior patterns, be completely repressed, and significantly impact our interpersonal and familial relationships.
My therapeutic approach to trauma, offers a nurturing, systematic, and comforting methodology that quietly explores the nature of the trauma in a safe and gentle environment.

There is a deep understanding of the internal and external affects of trauma recovery. Care providers are sometimes also survivors who have been through the recovery and have deep compassion for the process. We look at and work with intersectional issues of oppression. We also recognize many instances of socially derived trauma are intergenerational, lateralized and or oppressive and ongoing, clients are often addressing childhood, as well as, adult trauma from a non-self-shaming compassion based approach such as, Intersectional Care, Parts Work including TIST -- Trauma Informed Stabilization Theory, IFS -- Internal Family Systems; Somatic Work and distance CranioSacral; DBR, Polyvagal and Attachment Theory based approaches... non dominant handwriting, addiction care, memory reconsolidation and existential/coherence level care. We also integrate understanding of Transformative and Social Justice to bring awareness to internalized oppression that can keep survivors looped into dangerous experiences. We have a decolonizing orientation to care! This work is a special calling, during and post trauma recovery, folks may even feel more affirmed and move towards creative and fulfilling Self actualization in their process. We welcome POC and GM folks with intersecting care needs. Please feel free to email me if you have any questions.
