Dr. Glenn Francis
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., MFT
Human beings probably predominate on the planet because we are so easily traumatized. We are an adventurous and creative species, and we find ourselves in unique situations never before seen, all the time and over and over again. And we get hurt in those situations, and then we tend to stop growing. We can heal – starting with talking with someone about what troubles us, and how it troubles as, and discovering that we are not ill, but hurting and afraid – and that can change.

Robynne OByrne
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have treated many adult survivors of abuse, many of whom suffer from PTSD. Anxiety, depression, substance abuse and sleep disorders are extremely common among survivors of trauma. Somatic oriented therapy, combined with analytic psychotherapy and hypnotherapy where appropriate is extremely effective at helping clients heal the psychic wounds that stem from trauma and abuse.

Amber McKinney-Morgan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
Trauma can affect how you think, feel, and experience the world long after the event has passed. I specialize in trauma-informed care using EMDR, somatic approaches, and parts work to help process and integrate these experiences. Therapy is paced and collaborative, helping you move from survival toward a greater sense of safety and empowerment.

Lisa Abdilova Andresen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The links between trauma and achievement spotlight the success stories of people who've endured difficult pasts. Through resilience and resourcefulness, some persevered and found success as an outlet for improving self-esteem. How else could you have filled the void of highly critical, emotionally unavailable parents? The trouble is that success may be tough to integrate and truly celebrate as your own, no matter how impressive your resume gets. Fortunately, recovery from trauma is very possible and with time, can foster post-traumatic growth which leads to a more fulfilling life and meaningful relationships. My clinical approach includes Internal Family Systems which explores how different parts of you protect and serve you. Trauma-Focused CBT also helps unravel core-beliefs that may complicate your relationship with yourself, your ability to trust others, or see the world as a safe place.

Anders Greenwood
Psychologist, Psy.D, Ph.D.
I enjoy helping clients accept and like themselves, organize around strengths, achieve greater emotional presence, think clearly, and let go of shame, guilt and old habits of emotional survival. I believe therapy should lead to better decisions, as well as improved quality of life and relationships.

Erika Shershun
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I haven't met a client who couldn't benefit from some degree of healing from trauma, whether relational, developmental, systemic, big T, complex trauma, PTSD... we all carry trauma in varying degrees until we're able to integrate it. My work is trauma informed, with a foundation in somatic psychotherapy which is needed for lasting results - trauma impacts the body as well as the brain. If you ignore the body in therapy the thoughts and emotions may improve for a time, but the patterns of constriction that impact the body will remain and sooner or later the distressing thoughts and emotions will return. I also draw on EMDR, neurobiology, energy psychology, self-compassion, mindfulness and other modalities. My work is compassionate yet direct and results driven.
