Anders Greenwood
Psychologist, Psy.D, Ph.D.
I enjoy helping clients accept and like themselves, organize around strengths, achieve greater emotional presence, think clearly, and let go of shame, guilt and old habits of emotional survival. I believe therapy should lead to better decisions, as well as improved quality of life and relationships.

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.

Suzanna Freerksen
Psychiatrist, MD
I bring a trauma-informed lens to everything I do, encouraging agency, choice, and meeting a person where they are. I am trained in several trauma-informed modalities, most notably DBT and EMDR. DBT training was through Marsha Linehan's Behavior Tech. I was trained in EMDR by the EMDR Institute for basic training and received advanced training for recent events and group reprocessing through CONNECT EMDR.
As a psychiatrist I am comfortable with prescribing medications as well as therapy. My psychiatry practice is focused on you and how you can best achieve your goals, whether that is medication, psychotherapy, lifestyle changes, or a combination of all three. Let's work together to help you get 'unstuck'.

Edie Ye
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
One of my specialties is in supporting the impact of trauma, including complex trauma, and PTSD, on our entire system (mind, body, and spirit). I draw upon a variety of experiential, process-oriented modalities to support long-term healing of trauma, including parts work, somatic work, psychedelic assisted psychotherapy, and attachment-based relational work to build trust with the body and supporting the nervous system, both of which often become chronically dysregulated with trauma.

Janice Shapiro
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
My work as a psychotherapist has always been like a detective uncovering the source. Trauma is no different. Clients usually come to me with intense anxiety, panic attacks, fears and more. We look for patterns from the past and connect the dots. Usually, we find patterns and connections. This is the start of the healing process. Using strategies from Internal Family Systems and psychodynamic therapies, we work together finding and practicing strategies that work for each client.

Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Trauma, and the potential diagnosis of PTSD, can stem from a variety of experiences. Sometimes it is acute trauma, a singular event, forever burned within our being, that follows us in everything we do. Sometimes it is complex or chronic trauma, a series of events or exposures that eventually broke down our ability to remain intact of body, mind or spirit. Trauma can be healed. The parts of ourselves that were harmed can be welcomed back within the larger self, forgiven. The scars will always be there, there is no time machine that can change what has happened. Yet with integration, we can rebuild our inner world to something whole, and alive.
