Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Trauma can affect how individuals experience safety, relationships, and themselves long after the event has passed. I provide a steady and paced approach to help process these experiences without overwhelming the system. Therapy focuses on increasing stability, understanding patterns shaped by trauma, and gradually building a greater sense of safety and integration.

When the Past Still Feels Present
You may know, logically, that a painful experience is behind you — yet your body and mind don’t always agree. A sound, a tone of voice, or even a smell can suddenly bring back the rush of fear, shame, or helplessness. Trauma can make you feel like you’re living in survival mode, constantly alert, exhausted, or detached from yourself and others. Healing from trauma isn’t about “getting over it.” It’s about helping your brain and body learn that you are safe again.
In therapy, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT combined with the Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) to calm your nervous system, rebuild trust in your body, and process painful memories at a pace that feels safe. Together, we’ll:
Understand how trauma reshapes the brain and body’s threat response
Learn grounding tools to bring the body back to the present moment
Release shame, guilt, and self-blame that often follow trauma
Rebuild a sense of safety, strength, and connection in your daily life
Transform survival skills into sources of resilience and wisdom
Our work focuses on restoring balance — helping you feel more in control, more connected, and more alive. Healing happens not by reliving the past, but by reclaiming your power in the present.
I BELIEVE:
Trauma changes how we survive, not who we are.
Safety and connection are the foundation of healing.
Your symptoms are not weakness — they’re evidence of strength and adaptation.
You can feel safe in your body again.
Compassion, not confrontation, is what restores the nervous system.
Also Integrated In Our Work:
• Interpersonal Work – to strengthen connection and empower you to be yourself using The 5 Secrets of Effective Communication
• Mindful Self-Compassion – to cultivate a gentler, kinder inner voice through the work of Dr. Kristin Neff

Heather Marriatori
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma is an emotional and psychological response to an event. This event could be something you experienced personally or something you witnessed. Your experience could include shock, denial, unpredictable emotions, flashbacks, nightmares, strained relationships and even physical symptoms like headaches or nausea. There is no reason to continue experiencing this alone. Contact me and we can discuss ways to get feeling like you're back in control and no longer suffering.

Roanne de Guia-Samuels
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CChT
Trauma is not just something that happened in the past—it can continue to show up in your body, relationships, and the way you experience the world. I help clients gently process painful experiences while understanding how trauma has shaped their thoughts, emotions, and nervous system responses. Using a trauma-informed approach that integrates somatic therapy, attachment work, and evidence-based strategies, we work together to create safety, build resilience, and help you reconnect with yourself.
