Trauma f*cks with our sense of time. Psychoanalysis offers a safely curious space to explore the unconscious impacts of your traumatic experiences.

Tanya Samuelian
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.S., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Trauma isn’t always loud—it can live quietly beneath high achievement, control, or emotional distance. Many high-functioning individuals carry past wounds that continue to impact their relationships, self-worth, or sense of safety. I offer a compassionate, trauma-informed space to process what’s been buried, reconnect with your inner world, and move toward lasting healing and integration. You don’t have to carry it alone.

The wounds from our past show up in our lives today and tomorrow. But they don't need to hurt the same each time. We will work together to understand how trauma is stored in our bodies and how we can practice resiliency in our every day lives.

Josie Munroe, LMFT

The aftereffects of trauma and overwhelming experiences can make ordinary life feel like an uphill climb. Maybe you’re constantly on alert, or maybe you feel nothing at all. Either way, you’re not broken, and you don’t have to stay stuck.

PTSD/Trauma
Sexual Recovery Coach
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, CST, CADC-III, CTA-CC
PTSD generally refers to a reaction to a single traumatic event. A memory of the event, conscious or unconscious, rises up and the person believes that it is happening now. Battlefield trauma is the clearest example of this. CPTSD (Complex Post traumatic Stress Disorder) refers to a stress disorder linked to sustained patterns of abuse, trauma and neglect. Sometimes the roots of the trauma are obvious,but not always. There is inter-generational trauma, intrauterine trauma, medical trauma and religious trauma for example. Trauma knows no time. When we are triggered, the pain and discomfort can be as real as it was when the initial events occurred. Exploring whatever adverse experiences occurred in early life, adulthood or in past generations can help you achieve a freedom from these trauma reactions. To help resolve them, I use EMDR, CBT, hypnotherapy and somatic techniques.
