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.

Tara Maazel
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PN1-NC
Trauma can alter our nervous systems, sometimes to the point where you can feel alienated in your own body. We will practice strategies to befriend your nervous system again and help you feel more connected and embodied. Sometimes self-limiting beliefs can keep us repeating the same cycles inadvertently. We will work collaboratively towards unraveling old narratives and ineffective cycles that may feel stagnating. I use Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) to help you gain a deeper understanding of the purpose of certain protective mechanisms so that you can perhaps relate to them in a different way and create new neural pathways. I also offer EMDR for processing traumatic memories and CBT for learning skills to challenge automatic reactions. For those who are interested, I can guide you through creative expression exercises to help you engage with challenges from a different kind of portal and build new perspectives.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, ACSW, DSW
Trauma and PTSD exist because of explicit and implicit memory of events that are out of the ordinary. Therapy explores the connection to both in a safe environment. Symptoms arise from these experiences that can be debilitating and exhausting. Sorting out these connections lead to healing.
