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.

Rachel Miller
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Trauma doesn’t happen in isolation—it’s shaped by relationships, community, and larger social systems. I work with individuals to understand the personal and systemic impacts of trauma and PTSD, including historical, cultural, and structural oppression. Together, we focus on reclaiming safety, resilience, and agency while navigating the complex ways trauma shows up in the body, mind, and relationships.

Shawna Stillwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, IMFT-S
Trauma has a way of living in the body and shaping the way we see ourselves and other long after the vents themselves have passed. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help clients approach their trauma gently and at their own pace, without having to relive or force anything. The goal is not just to cope, but to genuinely heal, and I'm in it for the long-run.

Dawn McCarthy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
When you are living with the aftermath of trauma or PTSD, the past never truly feels like it’s in the past. Whether you are navigating childhood neglect, relational trauma, or a specific life-shattering event, trauma remodels both the brain and the body—leaving you trapped in a state of hypervigilance, emotional numbness, or chronic anxiety. I specialize in helping individuals safely process these painful experiences and reclaim their lives. Moving beyond traditional talk therapy, I utilize advanced, evidence-based brain-body modalities like EMDR and Brainspotting to access and gently release trauma stored deep within the nervous system. By pairing these techniques with Internal Family Systems (IFS), we honor the protective parts of you that helped you survive, while finally healing the root wounds. You don't have to carry the weight of what happened to you forever; together, we can help your nervous system find genuine safety and lasting peace.

Kristy Harrington
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
If you've experienced trauma in the context of relationships, I can help you understand how it impacted you as it occurred, how it continues to impact you in adulthood and to develop strategies to manage that impact in a productive and healthy way. I approach working with trauma starting with the inquiry of "what happened to you?", instead of the common inquiry of "what's wrong with you?". Self-awareness, self-compassion and healthy coping and relationship skills can support you in living a satisfying life after experiencing trauma.

Alisha Moquin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
When the World Shatters, Healing Begins With Understanding
Trauma shakes everything—your sense of safety, your sense of self, your trust in the world. Your body responds in ways you might not expect, and suddenly life feels divided into “before” and “after.”
You’re not broken. You’re responding to something that broke your sense of safety.
In our work together, we’ll begin to make sense of what happened—not to erase it, but to integrate it. I offer a space to feel, to process, and to gently move toward acceptance and growth. You don’t have to go back to who you were. We’ll help you become who you are now.
You survived. Now let’s help you feel safe again.

Alana Morazzini
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with a healing approach called Internal Family Systems (IFS), which gently explores the different "parts" of you that have been shaped by past experiences. This work is especially meaningful for those who have navigated relational trauma or PTSD — and for anyone who simply wants a safe, compassionate space to make sense of their story and move toward healing.

Christopher McDowell, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
I have extensive experience treating children, adolescents, and adults for PTSD and trauma. I performed most of this work with families in the impoverished areas of Boston while I was with The Home for Little Wanderers Counseling Center. I would estimate that over 70% of my cases, during this eight-year job, were children and adolescents who were struggling with PTSD.

Robin Okun

Navigating the impact of PTSD and complex trauma demands a secure, compassionate space where your safety is the highest priority. Through a specialized, trauma-informed approach, I provide a remote environment where we can gently untangle the past without it overwhelming your present.
Together, we will translate deep self-awareness into practical tools and resilient strategies to stabilize your nervous system and strengthen your boundaries. My goal is to empower you to reclaim your voice and navigate your relationships with a renewed sense of emotional freedom, genuine purpose, and ease.

Vida Mendez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, EMDR II
Time doesn’t heal all wounds. You may have moved forward with your life, but still find yourself reacting in ways that don’t fully make sense—overthinking, shutting down, feeling on edge, or carrying emotional weight that never fully lifted.
Trauma can continue to affect how you feel and respond long after the experience is over. I help clients work through traumatic experiences so they no longer have the same hold on them. Using EMDR, we help the brain fully process what happened so it no longer carries the same emotional and physiological impact.

Trauma symptoms include: flashbacks, sleep troubles, negative beliefs about yourself, feeling unsafe, dissociation, hypervigilence, and more.
