Alameda, California therapist: Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp, marriage and family therapist
Trauma and PTSD

Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Trauma can impact how you experience safety, connection, and trust—both internally and in relationships. I approach trauma work through an attachment-based, developmental lens, recognizing that overwhelming experiences often shape protective patterns that once helped you survive. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), we gently work with parts that carry fear, shame, anger, or numbness. Emotionally Focused principles guide our work toward strengthening secure attachment and emotional safety. Therapy focuses on nervous system regulation, unburdening traumatic experiences at a pace that feels manageable, and restoring a sense of stability and self-trust.

Oakland, California therapist: Holly Hoffman, PsyD, Psychotherapy, psychologist
Trauma and PTSD

Holly Hoffman, PsyD, Psychotherapy

Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist in CA & NY
There are some things that regular talk and behavioral therapy can not get at. EMDR uses bilateral stimulation to help us to shift where things are stored in our brain so that we don’t feel our past wounds as much in our body. EMDR does not make us forget but helps us to see things differently, at a bit more of a distance, so that we can change our views of ourselves and move forward with our lives. I have received EMDR myself and an a big proponent of it. EMDR is not just for PTSD it can help with any unhealed wounds. Other therapies can feel like putting band aid on but EMDR gets to the root so you are no longer triggered by it.

Trauma and PTSD

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.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Whether you’ve experienced a single, terrible event, a pattern of mistreatment or abuse, or even long-standing difficult and painful relationships with parents, the impact on you doesn’t have to remain so heavy. I have training in several research-informed approaches, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an evidence-based, extensively researched therapy that offers a different approach to treatment by engaging your brain’s natural healing process.

Trauma and PTSD

Robyn Holmes-Cannon

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Trauma is painful and often very hard to overcome without some form of help. The approach I use is client-centered, meaning we work through your experiences at a pace that feels safe to you and in a way that is empowering and offers ongoing resources. The treatment methods most often practiced are EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Internal Family Systems, The Flash Technique and Emotional Freedom Technique, all proven, highly effective trauma-informed approaches.

San Jose, California therapist: Russell Wilkie, marriage and family therapist
Trauma and PTSD

Russell Wilkie

Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to reduce the effects of trauma. Some of us have trauma that affects our bodies, others are emotional and some are more spiritual. Boundary violations of any kind can lead to PTSD, whether they are big "T" traumas or small "t" traumas, our brain can process through the event(s), but sometimes it gets stuck, so EMDR can break the paralysis. We can get stuck in the left brain, right brain or amygdala and end up paralyzed. We use the eye movement to allow our three brains to calm down and listen to and soothe one another. Getting those three parts of your brain all active usually break the stranglehold of trauma.

I see trauma in a broad sense- any experience that was too overwhelming to process in the moment and is stored in the body/mind. Gently, we can integrate and find freedom from these experiences.
