Louis Miller III, Oak Brook Counseling and Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, Attaining CMHC degree, MBK Adler University Member
I provide trauma-informed care that prioritizes safety, pacing, and choice. I understand that everyone processes trauma differently and that my trauma-informed care will meet the client where they are in their own journey, dealing with the long-lasting effects of trauma or recent experiences. My work focuses on helping the client gain tools and skills to regulate their nervous system, have better management of distress stemming from triggers, and to help you process your trauma in a collaborative, supportive way.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) often creates very painful symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Prolonged Exposure (PE). In this therapy, we will revisit traumatic situations, process painful emotions, and change unhelpful beliefs about yourself and the world around you as a result of your trauma. People are often amazed at how quickly this treatment can work and by the very meaningful change that can result. For these reasons, this is one of my favorite treatments to provide.

Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals experiencing trauma and PTSD by providing a safe, supportive, and trauma-informed space to process difficult experiences at a pace that feels manageable. Trauma can impact thoughts, emotions, relationships, and the sense of safety in the world, and may show up as anxiety, hypervigilance, intrusive memories, or emotional numbing. In therapy, I use Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to help identify and work through unhelpful beliefs related to the trauma, along with supporting coping skills and emotional regulation. The focus is on reducing the ongoing impact of trauma, strengthening resilience, and helping you move forward with a greater sense of safety, control, and self-understanding.

Sarah Eisenhauer Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC, LCPC, LPC, AADC
If you struggle with complex PTSD and/or developmental trauma, I can work with you to move past not only the symptoms you likely struggle with in every day life, but also accompany you on a path of self discovery. For most individuals who have trauma, living in survival mode means we do not get a chance to tend to our own identity and create the life that we want. I believe you can manage difficult symptoms and discover your true self, living in alignment with who you feel you truly are. I utilize behavioral techniques (CBT, DBT, ACT) as well as a depth, psychodynamic approach.

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
What happened to you changed you. Maybe it was a single event. Maybe it was years of experiences that accumulated into a weight you've carried ever since. You might have flashbacks or nightmares. Or it might be subtler than that: a numbness, a difficulty trusting, a way of moving through the world always slightly on guard. Trauma lives in the body, not just the mind, and healing requires more than just talking about what happened. Our clinicians are trained in trauma-informed care that helps you process these experiences without retraumatizing you in the process. You can heal from this. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

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.

Ashley Pinto
Therapist, LCPC, CCTP
Trauma isn’t necessarily something that happens to you—it’s what happens inside you as a result of an overwhelming experience. It can leave the body stuck in survival mode, the mind cut off from its natural rhythms, and a person disconnected from their true self. It can show up as tension, emotional overwhelm, feeling numb, or reacting to everyday situations as if the danger is still present. While trauma affects both the body and the brain, the good news is that healing is possible. Approaches that help people reconnect with their bodies, understand their emotional and relational patterns, and restore a sense of safety can gradually release old survival responses and rebuild a felt sense of wholeness and resilience.
Trauma can impact us following a single incident (e.g., a car accident, attack, or medical procedure) or ongoing patterns of abuse, neglect, never feeling seen and heard by caregivers. Without adequate resources or treatment, the effects can linger long past the experience. Through integrative somatic trauma therapy, I help women develop a deeper understanding of their internal responses and expand their capacity to engage with life more fully. Together, we will work toward greater clarity, connection, and the ability to move forward in ways that feel more grounded, intentional, and aligned with who you truly are.
I no longer offer weekly insurance-based 53 minute sessions. After a decade of seeing clients under this model, I've shifted my practice to private pay customized services that better meet the needs of my niche clients. My customized Therapy Intensives are specially designed to offer you a more a more spacious, efficient, and streamlined for a deeper and more transformative experience. They are intended to be short-term and can serve as an adjunct to ongoing therapy with your already established therapist, such as in the case that you really enjoy the work you are doing with them but they do not specialize in an area that I do. I also offer monthly extended sessions (90 minutes to 2 hours) for those looking for a hybrid option, that allows for deeper work as well as ongoing support. Please visit my website for more details on how we can work together.

PTSD/Trauma
Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
Trauma manifests in a myriad of ways in our minds and bodies. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can result from experiencing or witnessing a life threatening event or significant loss, whereas complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD) may result from chronic abuse, neglect or other forms of mistreatment that happened repeatedly over a period of time. These experiences of intense fear make an imprint on the nervous system, impacting our physical and emotional responses to our partners, children, families, friends, and colleagues. Often our inclination is to avoid, ignore or push through these traumas in an effort to minimize the associated pain. However these efforts are futile as unresolved traumas create invisible barriers that hinder the development of a strong sense of self and healthy relationships.
In romantic relationships, trauma can disrupt our ability to trust, to feel safe emotionally and physically, and can interfere with the enjoyment of sex and intimacy. These impacts of trauma may ebb and flow over time, intensifying during big life transitions and resurfacing as we age. Whether you are seeking individual or couples therapy, the therapists at PCT create a trauma-informed space to process trauma, understand its impacts on your relationships and build coping skills to move forward. We are patient and emphasize building a trusting relationship together. Therapists at PCT understand that healing from trauma takes time and progress may not always be linear, but that this work leads to healthier relationships and a stronger sense of self-worth.

Lenny Gallo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Trauma isn’t just about what happened—it’s about how your nervous system responded. When trauma remains unresolved, it can show up as anxiety, shame, anger, numbness, flashbacks, sleep disturbance, relationship struggles, or chronic tension. Even long after the event is over, your body may still feel stuck in survival mode.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps your brain process traumatic experiences so they no longer carry the same emotional intensity. Rather than reliving the past, EMDR helps your system integrate it—so it stops disrupting your present.
Healing doesn’t mean forgetting. It means loosening trauma’s grip so you can feel safer, more grounded, and more like yourself again.
When appropriate, we may integrate other approaches such as IFS or talk therapy—but EMDR is often the foundation of trauma treatment in my practice.

Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
Trauma often sits at the core of many emotional and relational challenges, shaping how we experience ourselves, others, and the world. It’s natural for the body and mind to respond to reminders of past experiences as if they are still happening. I work with you to gently process and rework these experiences, so they feel more integrated and rooted in the past rather than the present.
