Danielle Esses
Psychologist, PsyD
Trauma can leave you feeling on edge, emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that once made sense but no longer serve you. Therapy focuses on helping you understand the impact of what you’ve been through, strengthen your sense of safety, and move toward a life that feels less organized around survival.

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Specialized support for trauma, complex trauma (C-PTSD), developmental trauma, attachment trauma, racial trauma, medical trauma, religious trauma, identity-based trauma, intergenerational trauma, and the impacts of systemic oppression, marginalization, and chronic invalidation. This work is particularly attuned to the experiences of neurodivergent, disabled, chronically ill, LGBTQIA2S+, BIPOC, multicultural, and other multiply marginalized individuals whose trauma often exists at the intersection of personal experiences and larger social systems.
My approach integrates EMDR, somatic therapy, polyvagal-informed practices, mindfulness, parts work, expressive arts, neuropsychotherapy, attachment-focused work, and liberation-oriented healing. Rather than asking what is wrong with you, we explore what happened to you, what happened around you, what happened within you, and the ways your nervous system, body, relationships, and sense of self adapted in order to survive.
Trauma often lives far beyond conscious memory. It is carried in the nervous system, muscles, breath, sensory experiences, patterns of tension, hypervigilance, perfectionism, people-pleasing, over-functioning, shutdown, dissociation, emotional overwhelm, chronic self-monitoring, difficulty resting, difficulty trusting, or a persistent feeling of being disconnected from yourself, your body, or your needs. Many of these responses reflect the intelligence of a system that learned how to survive under difficult circumstances rather than evidence that something is wrong with you.
This work invites a deeper understanding of the body's role in both survival and healing. Through attention to sensation, emotion, movement, breath, imagery, nervous system states, and the wisdom held by different parts of self, space is created for greater regulation, flexibility, self-compassion, and choice. Healing is not approached as fixing, erasing, or becoming someone different, but as gently reconnecting with the parts of yourself that may have been hidden beneath protection, adaptation, or survival.
As a multiply marginalized clinician whose work is informed by both professional expertise and lived understanding of trauma, culture, gender, neurodivergence, disability, chronic illness, and systemic oppression, I recognize that healing is rarely about symptom reduction alone. It is often about reclaiming connection to your body, your voice, your needs, your culture, your values, your relationships, your joy, your interests, your communities, and your capacity to move through life with greater authenticity, agency, and self-trust. The goal is not to return to who you were before trauma, but connecting with safe-enough states and reclaiming connection to self, community, embodiment, joy, agency, and the parts of you that existed long before survival became necessary.

Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Trauma can impact how you experience safety, connection, and trust—both internally and in relationships. I approach trauma work through an attachment-based, developmental lens, recognizing that overwhelming experiences often shape protective patterns that once helped you survive.
Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), we gently work with parts that carry fear, shame, anger, or numbness. Emotionally Focused principles guide our work toward strengthening secure attachment and emotional safety. Therapy focuses on nervous system regulation, unburdening traumatic experiences at a pace that feels manageable, and restoring a sense of stability and self-trust.

Dr. Deborah Vinall
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD, LMFT
Trauma can result from a single overwhelming event or from experiences that occurred repeatedly over time. Whether the impact is recent or has been carried quietly for many years, trauma can shape how you feel in your body, relate to others, and experience safety in the world.
I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced a wide range of traumatic events, including interpersonal violence, childhood abuse, sexual trauma, serious accidents, and other life-threatening or deeply distressing experiences. I also have extensive clinical and research experience working with survivors of mass shootings, an area that informed my doctoral dissertation and continues to shape my trauma-informed approach across age groups, including teens.
Using approaches such as EMDR, Brainspotting, and parts-based work, therapy focuses on helping your nervous system process and release what it has been holding, rather than repeatedly reliving the past. This perspective also informs my writing, including Trauma Recovery Workbook for Teens. With attuned, collaborative support, healing is possible—and these experiences do not have to continue defining your life.
