PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma lives in our bodies, wreaking havoc on your nervous system, emotional reactivity, and relationships. Whether your trauma comes from early childhood experiences or a traumatic childbirth experience, we can work together to help you heal. I will help you tell your story in a setting of safety. If you prefer not to rehash what happened, we can help your body and mind process the lingering emotions, body sensations, and intrusive images using an eye movement therapy called Accelerated Resolution Therapy. This helps reduce symptoms in just a few sessions, often only one session. Clients says they are surprised at the quick relief from ART. Using traditional talk therapy or ART, we can continue to process what happened and help you learn to relate to the world in a different way, or help you prepare for future situations that are similar. Many women who have experienced traumatic births find ART helpful in enabling them to decide whether to have more children from a clear mind and not from a place of fear.

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.

PTSD/Trauma
Kaijah Bjorklund
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
Trauma isn't just what happened — it's what your nervous system learned as a result of what happened. Whether it was a single event or a lifetime of experiences that accumulated slowly, trauma gets stored in the body and shows up in ways that feel confusing, out of proportion, or hard to explain. I specialize in complex trauma and PTSD, using EMDR, IFS, and somatic therapy to help your nervous system process what it's been holding — not by reliving it, but by creating the conditions for real, lasting healing that you can feel, not just understand.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced trauma or are navigating symptoms of PTSD. Trauma can impact how you think, feel, and respond—often showing up as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, numbness, or feeling constantly on edge. Together, we focus on helping your nervous system feel safer, processing past experiences at a pace that feels manageable, and building tools to support regulation in everyday life. My approach integrates evidence-based therapies with mind-body techniques, helping you move out of survival mode and toward a place of greater stability, connection, and control.

Dr. Jessica Shine
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LPC
Most people will experience trauma in their lifetime whether it’s a car accident, abuse or neglect, the sudden death of a loved one, a violent criminal act, exposure to the violence of war, or a natural disaster.
While many people can recover from trauma over time with the love and support of family and friends and bounce back with resiliency, others may discover the effects of lasting trauma, which can cause a person to live with deep emotional pain, fear, confusion, or posttraumatic stress far after the event has passed.
In these circumstances, the support, guidance, and assistance of a therapist are fundamental to healing from trauma.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
PTSD can be effectively treated or managed using hypnotherapy, often as an adjunct to traditional therapies, as evidenced by studies indicating significant improvements in symptoms like nightmares and flashbacks. It is used to address root causes and provides controlled access to memories, lowering physiological reactivity.Key Details on Hypnotherapy for PTSD:How it Works: Hypnosis helps individuals with PTSD access a deep state of relaxation, making the subconscious more receptive to positive suggestions, which reframes the emotional response to trauma.Targeted Symptoms: Hypnotherapy can reduce PTSD-related anxiety, flashbacks, nightmares, and emotional numbing.Techniques: Approaches include clinical hypnosis, solution-focused hypnotherapy, and self-hypnosis techniques to help patients manage anxiety on their own.
Trauma and PTSD are not as bad as they sound.I will help you cope with the symptoms. I will help you revisit your trauma and have closure once and for all. I use Dicit hypnotherapy to help you get resilient. I will help you recover and find peace. Patients with this disorder are getting resilient in no time. So should you.
