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.

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.

Eve Angela Fritsch
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A.
Trauma can continue to affect the way you think, feel, and relate to others long after the event has passed. Therapy can help you process those experiences, understand their impact, and move forward without felling controlled by the past.

Tracy Sachs (Singh)
Therapist, MA, AMFT
I work with trauma from body and soul perspectives. By drawing upon somatic modalities, we will explore how your nervous system responded to traumatic events and work towards reintegrating the experience from a more regulated and spacious place. From a soul perspective, trauma can be understood as not having the love, support, and sense of being witnessed when a traumatic experience occurred. Together we will tend to your body and soul so that you are no longer at the mercy of trauma.

Sexual Recovery Coach
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.

Dr. Michael Marossy
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Trauma can affect the way people experience emotions, relationships, safety, identity, and the world around them long after traumatic events have ended. Individuals struggling with trauma or PTSD may experience anxiety, emotional numbness, hypervigilance, intrusive memories, shame, irritability, relationship difficulties, avoidance, or a persistent sense of emotional disconnection or instability.
I provide trauma-informed therapy that is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based psychological treatment. My approach focuses on helping clients process painful experiences safely and thoughtfully while building emotional regulation skills, increasing self-understanding, strengthening relationships, and reducing the long-term impact trauma can have on daily functioning and emotional wellbeing.

Leila Tabatabaee
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma has a specific and undeniable impact on our brain and nervous system. This impact ripples into the way we feel about ourselves, our relationships and the world. Learning strategies to mitigate and re-wire the impact of trauma can empower us to feel greater safety, ease, confidence and connection.

Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Trauma just means wound — and most of us are carrying more than we realize. It shows up in our relationships, our bodies, our patterns, the ways we shrink or explode or go numb. The question isn't whether you've been affected but how deeply, and what's possible on the other side of actually healing it.
I bring extensive experience working with trauma and PTSD and am honored to offer some of the most effective trauma-focused approaches available — including EMDR, Flash Technique, ketamine-assisted EMDR, and psychedelic-assisted therapy — alongside the foundational skills and relational work that make deeper healing possible. Intensives available for those ready to go further, faster.
This work can give you back parts of yourself you may have forgotten existed.

Dr. Aleksandra Drecun
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Emotional and psychological trauma is the consequence of exceptionally stressful events that destroy your sense of security, making you feel helpless and vulnerable in a dangerous world. Immediately after the traumatic event, you may be struggling with upsetting emotions, frightening memories, or a sense of constant danger. Or you may feel numb, disconnected, and unable to trust others.
Traumatic experiences often involve a threat to life, security or safety. Any event that leaves you feeling overwhelmed, fearful and alone can be traumatic. In fact, the event does not need to involve physical harm. It is not the impartial facts that determine whether an event is traumatic. Rather, a person’s subjective emotional experience of the event is relevant. The more scared and helpless you feel, the more likely you are to be traumatized.
When horrible situations occur, it can take some time to adequately deal with the pain and feel safe again. Psychologists can help individuals find constructive ways of managing their emotions. With the proper treatment and support, you can speed your recovery. Regardless whether the traumatic incident occurred years ago or yesterday, you can heal and move forward with your life.
Facing and resolving the unbearable feelings and memories you have long avoided is imperative in healing the emotional and psychological trauma. Otherwise the symptoms will reoccur in an intrusive, distressing and unmanageable manner.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I work with individuals and couples who are dealing with the effects of trauma or post traumatic stress. Trauma can come from many experiences, including childhood events, relationship betrayal, abuse, medical trauma, loss, or other situations that felt overwhelming or unsafe. Even when the event is in the past, its effects can continue to show up through anxiety, emotional numbness, hypervigilance, intrusive memories, or difficulty trusting others.
In therapy, I help clients understand how trauma is affecting their nervous system, emotions, and relationships in the present. I use trauma informed approaches, including EMDR therapy, to help process painful experiences in a way that feels safe and manageable. This work allows many clients to feel less controlled by memories or emotional reactions and more grounded in their daily lives.
Trauma healing is not about reliving the past or forcing yourself to move on. It is about helping your mind and body release what they have been holding onto so you can feel more present, connected, and in control. Together, we work toward restoring a sense of safety, stability, and confidence in yourself and your relationships.

The goal is to help you feel more grounded, more in control, and less impacted by the past.

Christina Dee
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A. LMFT
Human beings have an innate ability to overcome the effects of diverse traumas. Because trauma destabilizes the nervous system, life can be experienced with a tremendous amount of stress and reactivity (hyperarousal) as well as numbness and indifference (hypoarousal). When we address the emotional and energetic aspects of trauma, our higher-self can re-engage with the distressed body to nurture recovery and rebalancing. The practice of resourcing (the ability to use internal and external resources to constructively achieve a relaxed but alert state of being) builds up and restores long-term resilience. Resourcing anchors our nervous system with calm and ease, enhances our ability to respond to spontaneous stress and refreshes our sense of self, connections to others, and feelings about the world.
