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.

Michele Robison, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
I have a great deal of training and experience in treating trauma. PTSD can be the result of a single trauma, repeated trauma or complex trauma. It is important to first understand one's personal history. After obtaining a history, coping strategies and stabilization are helpful when one feels triggered by the events of their life. Following history and stabilization, I utilize EMDR in order to help my clients process past and/or recent trauma. EMDR is an evidenced based treatment that is very beneficial in treating trauma.

Emma Sartwell
Counselor/Therapist, MDiv, SEP, Registered Psychotherapist
We specialize in Trauma and PTSD, including C-PTSD. Trauma is anything that happens too much, too fast, or too soon. Our bodies have ways to move through these high-intensity states, but they often need a little help and support to metabolize our experiences slowly and safely. Through somatic trauma therapy, we help you work with these responses at a pace that feels safe and manageable.

Sara Gillooly
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPCC
As a queer and AuDHD therapist myself, I have lived experience in learning how to live a life that feels more authentic and grounded. I specialize in working with queer, highly sensitive, and neurodivergent adults struggling with the impacts of trauma as well as feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, depression, burnout, relationship challenges, difficult family relationships, and identity exploration. Ultimately, I'm not interested in "treating" your neurodivergence but I will support you wholeheartedly in navigating the complexities that come with it.
