PTSD/Trauma
Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
I specialize in treating individuals who have experienced chronic relational trauma, sometimes referred to as complex PTSD. Complex relational trauma results in problems in sustaining healthy intimate relationships, difficulty in trusting others, and disorganized attachment bonds. I also work with individuals who have suffered a singular traumatic experience, such as witnessing a homicide, or surviving a loved one's suicide. These experiences are sometimes called traumatic grief. You may have witnessed an accident, been involved in a natural disaster, or survived a war or difficult migration and be experiencing intrusive thoughts, memories, or dreams about that most distressing and demanding experience. We can work together to process these unbearable experiences with great care and sensitivity, at a pace that is comfortable for you.

Shohreh ("Sho-ray") Schmuecker
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Experiencing trauma can have a lasting impact on your emotional and physical well-being. Symptoms of PTSD, as outlined in the DSM-5-TR, may include intrusive memories or flashbacks, avoidance of reminders, negative changes in thoughts and mood, and heightened arousal such as irritability, difficulty sleeping, or being easily startled. These symptoms can disrupt your daily life and relationships. You don’t have to face these challenges alone.
As a skilled psychotherapist, I provide a safe and supportive environment to help you process traumatic experiences at your own pace. Together, we can work on strategies to reduce symptoms, build resilience, and restore a sense of safety and calm in your life.
If you are ready to begin addressing the effects of trauma, I invite you to reach out. Compassionate support is available to guide you toward greater peace and stability.
