Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you feel on edge, anxious, irritable, can't relax, or struggle to trust people, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats trauma and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma lives in our bodies, wreaking havoc on your nervous system, emotional reactivity, and relationships. Whether your trauma comes from early childhood experiences or a traumatic childbirth experience, we can work together to help you heal. I will help you tell your story in a setting of safety. If you prefer not to rehash what happened, we can help your body and mind process the lingering emotions, body sensations, and intrusive images using an eye movement therapy called Accelerated Resolution Therapy. This helps reduce symptoms in just a few sessions, often only one session. Clients says they are surprised at the quick relief from ART. Using traditional talk therapy or ART, we can continue to process what happened and help you learn to relate to the world in a different way, or help you prepare for future situations that are similar. Many women who have experienced traumatic births find ART helpful in enabling them to decide whether to have more children from a clear mind and not from a place of fear.

Dan Walinsky
Psychologist, PhD
I've found that the range of traumas that people experience disrupts our experience of day-to-day life and relationships in so many ways. So many people who've experienced patterns of traumatizing, persistently invalidating, or minimizing experiences have found coping strategies to manage the profound impacts of trauma but eventually find that those strategies no longer work. Together, we will look at the impact of traumas and using a range of practices, which potentially include EMDR, internal parts work, and polyvagal theory, we will work to supportively rebuild a sense of self-guided trust in the world.

Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with adults navigating trauma and PTSD, including the kind that doesn't always fit a single dramatic event, ongoing racialized stress, immigration-related trauma, or the accumulated weight of navigating institutions and environments not built with you in mind. My approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, trained through the Beck Institute, to help process what happened and rebuild a sense of safety and stability. Many of my clients are first-generation professionals or Latinx adults for whom trauma is layered with cultural and immigration history. I offer sessions in English or Spanish.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
When the foundation of trust shaken (if not feeling broken) through experiences of trauma, the approach to restoring one's life must always be one of sensitivity, patience, and compassion. Without this, there will always be a risk that it will never feel safe enough to heal.

XaHara A. MeGod
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, R-DMT, CPT
Trauma lives in the body, not just the memory. My approach to PTSD is gentle, paced, and deeply respectful of your nervous system. Using somatic therapy, cultural awareness, and trauma-informed principles, we help you release stored activation, reduce hypervigilance, and reclaim safety in your own skin. You don’t have to relive it to heal it.

Peter D. Ruffini
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II
I specialize in trauma and PTSD using evidence-based treatments including EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Prolonged Exposure (PE). Trauma often drives anxiety, anger, compulsive behavior, and emotional shutdown without being obvious. Treatment is structured and intentional, aimed at resolving trauma responses rather than managing symptoms indefinitely.

Barry Lipscomb
Hypnotherapist, CHT
You feel defined by your past. The lingering effects of physical or emotional trauma cast a constant shadow on your daily experience. Your relationships, career and enjoyment of life are all minimized by this trauma. It seems you will always be limited by the past. Yet, you want more than this out of your life.
Using guided meditation and hypnotherapy, I help you heal your past trauma and move beyond how it limits your life experience. We work together to find a path forward, move beyond your traumatic past, and tap into your own intuition to find new more fulfilling and productive ways to be in your life.
Contact me to schedule a complimentary 15-minuyte information session to learn more about Depth Hypnosis counseling sessions and how you can move beyond the trauma of your past into a more fulfilling, productive and enjoyable experience of life.

Dr. Michael M. Grant
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist PhD, MBA
Bad things happen to us all. If they are so frightening and life-threatening that we have nightmares about them, flashbacks to them, and find ourselves avoiding anything that reminds us of them such that our lives become smaller and smaller, then it's time to deal with the trauma and the stress we feel after the trauma (post-traumatic stress). There are ways to lessen the pain of the memory and I can help you do that.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
Working on trauma is very difficult. I commend all my clients who show up to do this kind of work. It's a long road and often starting therapy stirs things up and can make things more challenging for a short while. If you're plagued by trauma responses, please find a therapist you trust. These things don't typically just go away and there is a lot of evidence that trauma therapy works!

Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Trauma and PTSD can significantly impact emotional connection, communication, trust, intimacy, and feelings of safety within a relationship. Gottman Method couples therapy provides a supportive and trauma-informed space for partners to better understand how trauma responses may affect relationship dynamics while strengthening connection and emotional safety. Therapy helps couples develop healthier communication patterns, increase empathy and attunement, and navigate triggers or stress responses with greater understanding and care. Whether trauma stems from current betrayal, past relationships, childhood experiences, loss, medical events, or other life experiences, the goal is to help couples build resilience, deepen support, and foster a relationship grounded in trust, compassion, and healing.

Hannah Shevitz
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCMH, NCC, M.S.
Trauma can live in the body long after the event has passed, showing up as anxiety, fatigue, chronic pain, or a sense of disconnection from yourself or others. In our work together, we gently explore how your body and mind have learned to protect you, while creating space for new experiences of safety and connection to emerge. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, and grounded in the understanding that healing happens at the pace your nervous system is ready for. I integrate both Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and IFS parts work.
