Jessica Torres Kreidt
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, NCC, CCTP (CA: LPCC#17935)
With training in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I specialize in supporting individuals who have experienced trauma. This work is a true passion of mine, and I am committed to walking alongside my clients on their journey toward healing. I use evidence-based therapies and grounding techniques to help clients manage distressing symptoms, stay connected to the present moment, and build resilience.
My work in trauma began at the YWCA Hope Center, a local rape crisis and domestic violence center, where I provided legal advocacy to individuals in some of the most challenging circumstances. I later gained valuable experience in case management, supporting individuals facing homelessness and significant life barriers. These experiences have profoundly shaped my compassionate and client-centered approach.
I strive to create a safe and supportive space where clients can reclaim their sense of safety, strength, and well-being as they work toward healing and growth.

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.

Sophie Pierce
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I understand trauma responses as the nervous system’s adaptive attempts to cope with overwhelming experiences, rather than simply symptoms to be eliminated. Healing occurs through safe, supportive relationships that help restore a sense of connection, regulation, and trust. I work collaboratively with children, and families to build understanding, strengthen resilience, and support meaningful growth.

Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Trauma is not just what happened, it is how the nervous system adapted in order to survive. PTSD symptoms such as hypervigilance, flashbacks, emotional numbing, or reactivity are protective responses that once served a purpose. Using approaches such as EMDR, Brainspotting, and somatic work, we gently process trauma so your body no longer has to live as though the danger is still present.
