Dr. Daniele Levy, Bay Area Cognitive Therapy
Psychologist, PhD, MBA
In treating trauma and PTSD, I use Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), a proven, structured approach that helps individuals reframe and process their traumatic experiences. Through this evidence-based treatment, we work together to challenge unhelpful beliefs about safety, power, trust, esteem and intimacy, and process the emotions tied to the trauma. By focusing on these areas, CPT helps reduce symptoms of PTSD and empowers clients to regain control over their lives, improving emotional resilience and overall well-being.

PTSD/Trauma
Elena Duong
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Trauma can leave marks on the body, not just the mind. It may show up as tight muscles, exhaustion, headaches, stomach trouble, or feeling stuck in a constant state of alert. Healing is often best approached gently, with rest, steady routines, calm breathing, small movements, and compassionate support. Recovery is not about forcing yourself to “get over it,” but about helping your body feel safe again, one small step at a time.

PTSD/Trauma
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.

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.
