Kinnari Birla
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Traumatic experiences can have lasting effects on emotional, physical, and psychological well-being. Whether the trauma stems from a single event or ongoing experiences, it can lead to symptoms such as intrusive memories, heightened anxiety, difficulty trusting others, emotional numbness, sleep disturbances, irritability, or feeling constantly on edge. Healing is possible with the right support.
At Elvive Psychological Services, we provide compassionate, trauma-informed care for children, adolescents, and adults who have experienced trauma or are living with post-traumatic stress. Our clinicians create a safe, supportive, and collaborative environment where clients can process difficult experiences at their own pace while developing healthy coping strategies and building resilience.
Using evidence-based therapeutic approaches, we help clients better understand the impact of trauma, reduce distressing symptoms, strengthen emotional regulation, and reconnect with a sense of safety and control. Our goal is to empower clients to move beyond surviving and toward healing, growth, and a more meaningful, fulfilling life.

Dr. Sarah Pouliot
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Trauma did not wait for consent; Therapy must. While many different therapeutic modalities exist for the treatment of trauma and PTSD, what remains essential is the thoughtful and careful negotiation of pacing between therapist and client such that the therapeutic process feels as manageable and tolerable as possible. Given that trauma so often results from harmful relational dynamics that force agendas or remove personal agency, trauma therapy must offer a healing space that does not seek to rush, pressure, or impinge. Rather, and in my professional opinion, it's imperative that trauma therapy respect the client's experience of what feels manageable at any given moment in therapeutic time and space, working to avoid unnecessary setback and potential retraumatization. I feel this is best achieved through the development of a reliable therapeutic rapport and relationship that functions to carefully and mindfully co-monitor and co-negotiate the everchanging and expanding dynamics between therapist and client. Put another way, your therapy should not be forced into someone else's timeframe or methodology; it should be allowed to develop in step with your specific history, unique needs, and comfort level. Please refer to my Trauma Blog on my website (pouliotpsychologicalservices.com) for more information on my approach to the treatment of trauma.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in trauma and PTSD, my treatment approach is rooted in compassion, safety, and evidence-based interventions. Through therapies such as cognitive processing therapy (CPT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), I collaborate with individuals to process traumatic memories, challenge negative beliefs, and develop effective coping strategies. Creating a safe therapeutic environment is paramount, allowing clients to explore their experiences at their own pace while feeling supported and validated. Psychoeducation about trauma responses and self-regulation techniques empowers individuals to manage symptoms and regain a sense of control over their lives. Additionally, I integrate mindfulness practices, relaxation techniques, and grounding exercises to promote emotional regulation and resilience. My goal is to facilitate healing, restore a sense of safety, and empower individuals to thrive beyond their traumatic experiences.

Mr. Dan Pugel
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and other types of trauma occur circumstantially and can often be debilitating and often seem insurmountable. A person suffering with PTSD has experienced or has been a witness to a traumatic event where a threat of death or serious injury occurs to self or others. During the experience or observing of such trauma the individual senses "intense fear, helplessness or horror".
PTSD symptoms may include voluntary and involuntary recurrent thoughts and dreams about the event, intense associations with the event - both externally and internally, intentional avoidance of associations with event, isolation, loss of interest in activities, anger, loss of concentration sleep disruptions among others. (DSM-V)
Other trauma occurs that may not be as pervasive as PTSD yet still interfers with the healthy social, occupational and general functioning of daily life. Both are experiences that can be processed through with outcomes of growth and healing

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
My background as a licensed psychologist and a trauma survivor uniquely positions me to offer compassionate and effective support to individuals who have experienced trauma, whether it be abandonment or physical, emotional, or sexual abuse. My personal journey through trauma has given me firsthand insight into the complex and often challenging process of healing. This, combined with my education and professional experience, enables me to approach therapy with deep empathy, understanding, and a genuine connection to my clients' experiences. I believe in the power of resilience and the potential for growth in the face of adversity, and I am dedicated to helping survivors on their path to recovery and empowerment.
With EMDR as my primary treatment modality, I bring a wealth of experience and expertise in guiding individuals towards trauma healing. My approach focuses on collaboratively identifying trauma targets for processing while also prioritizing resourcing techniques to reestablish a sense of safety and inner peace. Through EMDR therapy, I help clients transform the way traumatic memories are stored in the brain, ultimately freeing them from flashbacks, nightmares, and avoidance patterns associated with trauma. My commitment is to support individuals on their journey to reclaim their lives and find lasting relief from the effects of trauma.

She provides compassionate, specialized support grounded in highly effective trauma-specific approaches, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT).

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.

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.
