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.

Shauna Farabaugh
Life Coach, Certified Somatic Sex Educator, Board Certified Sexologist, Certified TRE provider
I am a certified Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE) practitioner, offering sessions in person or online. TRE can be a great adjunct to other therapies or a primary modality for addressing shock trauma, chronic stress, and compassion fatigue. TRE® accesses the body's inherent mechanism of shaking or vibrating to discharge long held stress and activation. Since we work directly with the nervous system, it is possible to experience relief from symptoms without ever talking about the source of trauma or stress. And once you learn how to self-regulate the technique, you can access it on your own as an ongoing self-care practice, enjoying increased benefits over time without the cost of ongoing appointments. Questions? Curious if TRE is right for you? Contact me today for your FREE consultation.

Fresno sits at the center of California's San Joaquin Valley and serves a largely agricultural economy, with therapists frequently addressing the mental health effects of seasonal work instability, rural poverty, and the physical and psychological demands of farmworker life. The city has large Hispanic, Hmong, and Southeast Asian communities — many with refugee backgrounds — creating demand for multilingual and culturally informed therapists who work with intergenerational trauma, resettlement stress, and identity. Community Regional Medical Center and UCSF Fresno provide institutional mental health resources, while the California State University Fresno psychology program feeds practitioners into the local community. Fresno's relatively limited therapy density compared to coastal metros makes telehealth an important access route for residents across the Central Valley.
