Amenah Arman
Therapist, MS-CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING, Nationally Certified Counselor
Trauma can shape how the nervous system responds to stress, relationships, and responsibility long after the original experience has passed. For many high-performing professionals, creatives, and leaders, trauma may show up as hypervigilance, emotional shutdown, perfectionism, or a constant sense of pressure to stay in control. Through trauma-informed therapy, narrative work, and nervous system regulation, we focus on helping the body and mind process unresolved experiences so you can feel safer, more grounded, and more present in your life and work.

Kayzim Suárez-Reyes
Psychologist, PhD
As someone who has experienced trauma, I know how hard it is to deal with ghosts from the past! I have specialized psychological expertise in trauma, including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and the complex dynamics of intergenerational trauma. I'm specifically trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), an evidence-based method for helping youth and their families process traumatic experiences. I understand that trauma is not just a memory, but a pervasive, ongoing disruption to the nervous system and one's core sense of self and safety. I utilize a range of trauma-informed approaches to help clients safely process past events, regulate emotional and physiological responses, and move out of patterns of chronic activation or emotional numbing. My goal is to support you in breaking the cycle of pain, reclaiming your narrative, and fostering post-traumatic growth to build a future defined by connection, presence, and genuine peace.

Ross Kellogg, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Individual, Marriage, and Family Therapist (LMFT)
Single event trauma and long-term developmental trauma in childhood can each be overwhelming experiences that bring about an overwhelming set of symptoms that often end in a lot of isolation for the traumatized person. Therapy can help you re-engage with people and life again. A multi modality approach including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy couples with Object Relations Therapy and Internal Family Systems Therapy can often be an effective method for managing symptoms, getting back to feeling good, and accepting the full impact and meaning of the traumatic event(s).

PTSD/Trauma
Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Trauma, and the potential diagnosis of PTSD, can stem from a variety of experiences. Sometimes it is acute trauma, a singular event, forever burned within our being, that follows us in everything we do. Sometimes it is complex or chronic trauma, a series of events or exposures that eventually broke down our ability to remain intact of body, mind or spirit. Trauma can be healed. The parts of ourselves that were harmed can be welcomed back within the larger self, forgiven. The scars will always be there, there is no time machine that can change what has happened. Yet with integration, we can rebuild our inner world to something whole, and alive.

Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Trauma can shape how you think, feel, relate, and respond to the world, often long after the original events have passed. Whether rooted in childhood experiences, relational wounds, or overwhelming life events, trauma can leave the nervous system stuck in patterns of alertness, shutdown, or emotional reactivity. I integrate EMDR and Somatic Experiencing to help the nervous system process these experiences safely so you can feel more present, empowered, and connected in your life.

Jennifer Canu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Acknowledging an event as traumatic is scary, and it can be easy to minimize our past experiences particularly when we feel "fine". Yet one may experience a variety of mental health symptoms and/or patterns which may feel uncomfortable or interfere with various life areas. These patterns likely helped you survive the traumatic experience, yet continued despite no longer being needed. I have over 15 years experience in treating symptoms of trauma and PTSD in children, adolescents, and adults. I utilize an integrated approach, incorporating psychoeducation, parts work (IFS), EMDR therapy, mindfulness and CBT to support clients of all ages with processing the traumatic experience and integrating adaptive information and new, more effective patterns.

David Sudyka

Trauma can continue to affect you long after the event has passed, showing up as intrusive memories, heightened anxiety, or feeling on edge. It can impact your sense of safety and the way you move through the world. In therapy we will work at a pace that feels safe to process what you have been through while also building tools to manage symptoms. The goal is to help you feel more grounded, more in control, and less impacted by the past.

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.
