David Andreone
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, AMFT
Accessing, unlocking and processing traumatic memories are the start to healing. Exposure therapy and talk therapy are my two main modes of healing as it pertains to trauma. It's tough to revisit, but I'll go there with you and guide you back to recovery.

Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Trauma can shape how you think, feel, relate, and respond to the world, often long after the original events have passed. Whether rooted in childhood experiences, relational wounds, or overwhelming life events, trauma can leave the nervous system stuck in patterns of alertness, shutdown, or emotional reactivity. I integrate EMDR and Somatic Experiencing to help the nervous system process these experiences safely so you can feel more present, empowered, and connected in your life.

Shadi Souferian
Psychologist, Psy.D
Traumatic events can have long-term effects on an individual. When someone experiences a traumatic event, the primitive, part of their brain becomes overactive, which can lead to a persistent state of hypervigilance. Therapy can help process the trauma a, become aware of the triggers that get set off because of the trauma, and learn skills to self-regulate, self-soothe, and overcome the grip the trauma has on you.

When the Past Still Feels Present
You may know, logically, that a painful experience is behind you — yet your body and mind don’t always agree. A sound, a tone of voice, or even a smell can suddenly bring back the rush of fear, shame, or helplessness. Trauma can make you feel like you’re living in survival mode, constantly alert, exhausted, or detached from yourself and others. Healing from trauma isn’t about “getting over it.” It’s about helping your brain and body learn that you are safe again.
In therapy, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT combined with the Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) to calm your nervous system, rebuild trust in your body, and process painful memories at a pace that feels safe. Together, we’ll:
Understand how trauma reshapes the brain and body’s threat response
Learn grounding tools to bring the body back to the present moment
Release shame, guilt, and self-blame that often follow trauma
Rebuild a sense of safety, strength, and connection in your daily life
Transform survival skills into sources of resilience and wisdom
Our work focuses on restoring balance — helping you feel more in control, more connected, and more alive. Healing happens not by reliving the past, but by reclaiming your power in the present.
I BELIEVE:
Trauma changes how we survive, not who we are.
Safety and connection are the foundation of healing.
Your symptoms are not weakness — they’re evidence of strength and adaptation.
You can feel safe in your body again.
Compassion, not confrontation, is what restores the nervous system.
Also Integrated In Our Work:
• Interpersonal Work – to strengthen connection and empower you to be yourself using The 5 Secrets of Effective Communication
• Mindful Self-Compassion – to cultivate a gentler, kinder inner voice through the work of Dr. Kristin Neff

Danielle Esses
Psychologist, PsyD
Trauma can leave you feeling on edge, emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that once made sense but no longer serve you. Therapy focuses on helping you understand the impact of what you’ve been through, strengthen your sense of safety, and move toward a life that feels less organized around survival.
