Yesenia Torres
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I specialize in working with individuals affected by post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and trauma-related challenges. My clinical focus is on helping clients process and integrate traumatic experiences that impact their emotional well-being, relationships, and daily functioning.
Therapy involves creating a safe and supportive environment to explore trauma symptoms such as flashbacks, hypervigilance, emotional numbness, and avoidance. Together, we work to build coping skills, increase emotional regulation, and restore a sense of safety and empowerment, facilitating healing and long-term recovery.

Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
My work with trauma and PTSD clients focuses on developing safe, paced strategies for processing difficult experiences that continue to impact your present life. Through evidence-based approaches including EMDR, clinical hypnosis, and somatic techniques, we address key areas including hypervigilance, emotional flashbacks, relational patterns rooted in past wounds, and nervous system dysregulation. I help clients build resources and resilience before processing traumatic memories, develop tools for managing triggers and overwhelming emotions in daily life, understand how past experiences shaped current beliefs and behaviors, and create new neural pathways that support healing and integration. My approach acknowledges that trauma work requires moving at your pace while providing a framework that allows you to process what happened without being retraumatized in the telling.
