Pre-Licensed Professional, APCC
I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help individuals heal from traumatic experiences and regain control over their lives. EMDR is a highly effective, evidence-based approach that enables you to process and integrate traumatic memories, reducing their emotional impact. In a safe and supportive environment, I guide you through this transformative process, helping you build resilience and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Whether you're dealing with recent trauma or long-standing issues, my goal is to support your journey toward healing and empowerment.

PTSD/Trauma

LaTianna Williams, Therapy, Sexology, and Holistic Tantra

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CTRS, ABS
Trauma & PTSD: Trauma can continue to affect your life long after the event has passed. You may struggle with anxiety, hypervigilance, emotional numbness, relationship difficulties, intrusive memories, trust issues, or a persistent feeling that you’re never truly safe. Using a trauma-informed approach, I help clients process difficult experiences, understand their nervous system responses, and develop tools for healing and recovery. Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels safe while building greater emotional regulation, resilience, and self-compassion. Healing from trauma is not about forgetting what happened. It’s about reclaiming your sense of safety, power, and ability to fully participate in your life.

Newport Beach, California therapist: Emma Esper, marriage and family therapist
PTSD/Trauma

Emma Esper

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
Trauma creates profoundly deep and painful wounds. These wounds can be difficult to heal, as we often suppress them, have difficulty expressing them, or do not have safe spaces to unearth them. Unhealed trauma can inform how we make decisions, how we see ourselves, how we see others and our world, and how we react to these things. My work with trauma survivors is to instill hope and self-worth, acknowledge and validate all emotions, create feelings of safety, and provide permission giving for struggle. Remember, it is okay to not be okay.
