Jay Shaw
Hypnotherapist, CHt (Certified Hypnotherapist)
Unresolved trauma doesn't stay in the past it runs in the background of every decision, relationship, and stress response you have today. Identity 2.0 hypnotherapy works to neutralize the subconscious charge attached to past events, reducing triggers and rebuilding a nervous system baseline that isn't controlled by what happened before. This isn't about reliving the pain. It's about removing its authority over your present identity.

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.

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.

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.

Dr. Sam Macy

Therapy is one of the most effective ways to treat trauma (including the clinical manifestations of PTSD). In a context of warmth, patience, and care, I use an evidence-based and strengths-based approach to help people heal from and learn to better manage the impacts of trauma.

Libby Shaw
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, ATR-BC, LPAT, ACS
What happened to you does not have to define you, but it is something that you have to work through, process, cope with, and make sense of. Trauma is multifaceted, and in my experience every situation is unique. Trauma work requires that we work together to establish a safe therapeutic relationship in order to explore the trauma, at your pace, and find ways to integrate what happened into your history, while not allowing it to define who you are or how you operate in the world.

Deborah Ejiofor
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Treating trauma in therapy focuses on helping individuals process and heal from past traumatic experiences. Therapeutic approaches are commonly used to help clients confront and reframe painful memories in a safe, supportive environment. Therapy also teaches coping strategies for managing triggers, reducing anxiety, and building emotional resilience. The goal is to help individuals regain a sense of control, rebuild self-worth, and work through the emotional and psychological effects of trauma at their own pace. With time and support, therapy helps individuals heal, find closure, and move toward a healthier, more balanced life.

Gina Majestro
Psychologist, PsyD, HSP, HSPP
Sometimes it feels like you’re doing everything “right” — but inside, you still feel stuck, anxious, or disconnected from the person you want to be. Maybe you’ve been carrying old wounds for a long time, trying to hold it all together, and you’re just ready for something to finally shift.
I work with adults who are ready to move beyond survival and start truly living. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in deep respect for your story. Together, we’ll explore the patterns and protective parts that once kept you safe — and help you build new ways of feeling grounded, connected, and at home in yourself.
You don’t have to keep doing this alone. Healing is possible, even if you’ve tried before and nothing seemed to work.
I offer in person therapy in Louisville, KY and virtual therapy for adults in Kentucky, Indiana, and across 42 PSYPACT states.
If you’re ready to take that next step — I’d be honored to walk with you.

Elana Blumenthal
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with clients on some of their traumatic histories, memories, their strength and survival and what continues to come up for them. If a client wishes some more specialized treatment such as EMDR I can always refer them to someone and/or work in conjunction with another specialist.

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.

Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Trauma sits in the body and the subconscious, not in the rational mind. For working with traumatic memories, I use the Rewind Technique, an evidence-informed, content-free approach that allows the nervous system to discharge the residue of a traumatic event without requiring you to relive it in detail. This pairs well with RTT for updating the beliefs that formed inside or after the event. If you have a formal PTSD diagnosis or are in active crisis, please work with a trauma-trained clinician as your primary support. I work alongside other providers and am happy to coordinate where appropriate.
