Ren Lee
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The trauma we experience can make us feel so disconnected and dissociated while also craving connection and warmth. I am here to invite and support you in exploring connections to yourself, your communities, and the world around you. Through understanding our intersectional identities, we can start to process and unpack the ways we struggle to show up for ourselves and each other. Healing is a process that takes time, authenticity, and gentle care. I am trained in Brainspotting.

Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I believe that most people who come to therapy, have some form of trauma in their life. Often people don't recognize the " little t traumas". I also work with people who have been through traumas such as sexual abuse and assault. I am able to use EFT with clients to help to clear the trauma from their body.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) A type of talk therapy, is one of the most recommended treatments for PTSD. CBT examines a client's thought patterns and how they influence behavior and choices. Exposure therapy is also great for trauma to slowly and comfortably expose you to fears in a safe setting little by little.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Treating trauma has been a specialty of mine for almost 15 years. I mostly use Cognitive Processing Therapy to understand the impact trauma has had on you and your life and then we use skills to address the thoughts that are keeping you stuck in old patterns. We will talk about important themes like safety, trust, power/control, esteem, and intimacy as a part of your trauma patterns. Changing how you think about trauma can help you get unstuck and live in more peaceful ways.

Insight Psychological Group
Psychologist, Psy.D.s, LCSWs, LPCs, LCADCs...
Many of our practitioners have specialized training in Trauma and treatment of PTSD. No two people's traumas are alike, and the effects of chronic trauma or Trauma differ from client to client. A helpful therapist will be very patient in letting the client safely, gradually immerse themselves in their memories, and build the strength to process the trauma and ultimately figure out how to become stronger as a result. Some clinicians are also specially trained in EMDR which is often the treatment of choice for clients with a significant trauma history.

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.

Armanda Morel (Latino Healing Partners)
Registered Social Worker, MSW, LSW (Bilingual, English-Spanish)
Trauma has a way of staying with us long after the event has passed — showing up in our bodies, our triggers, our relationships, and our sense of safety in the world. Post-traumatic stress is a very real and very human response to overwhelming experiences, and healing from it requires patience, compassion, and specialized care. I'm here to provide a trauma-informed, bilingual (English-Spanish) space where you can begin to process what happened, reclaim your sense of safety, and move forward — not by forgetting the past, but by freeing yourself from its grip.

Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
I have 10 years of experience working with individuals and families impacted by trauma, including complex trauma, relational trauma, and PTSD. Trauma can take many forms and often affects not only how we think and feel, but also how we relate to others, how safe we feel in the world, and how we see ourselves.
In my work, I support clients in making sense of their experiences at a pace that feels safe and manageable. Trauma can leave people feeling stuck in patterns of hypervigilance, anxiety, emotional numbness, shame, or difficulty trusting others. For many, these responses are not just psychological, but also deeply connected to the body and nervous system.
I approach trauma work with care, stability, and a strong focus on creating a sense of safety in the therapeutic relationship. Together, we work to gently process painful experiences while also building tools for grounding, regulation, and emotional stability in the present moment. I integrate both insight-oriented work and practical coping strategies to help clients understand how their past continues to impact them today, while also supporting change and healing.
My goal is to help clients feel less alone in their experiences, reconnect with a sense of internal safety, and gradually move out of survival-based patterns and into a life that feels more grounded, present, and whole.

The effects of trauma can last for years and years. There is no cookie cutter way to approach trauma as each case is unique. However, we utilize CBT techniques that have been shown to be effective in helping people live well in the aftermath of trauma and other very difficult life events.
