Pasadena, California therapist: Christian Holmes, marriage and family therapist
PTSD/Trauma

Christian Holmes

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Trauma can feel so overwhelming. It has a way of infecting every area of one's life. In my work with those who experience trauma I take a collaborative approach where we assess and address the trauma from all angles. We use talk therapy to process what has gone unaddressed and discover together the meaning made and the effect it had on you in your relationship with yourself and others. I also use evidence-based practices like EMDR and TF-CBT (Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral) Therapy which allows us to address cognitive distortions and negative beliefs you hold about yourself so that you can overcome the pain and suffering and experience more joy and freedom.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Elaine Skoulas, marriage and family therapist
PTSD/Trauma

Elaine Skoulas

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Trauma can shape how you think, feel, relate, and respond to the world, often long after the original events have passed. Whether rooted in childhood experiences, relational wounds, or overwhelming life events, trauma can leave the nervous system stuck in patterns of alertness, shutdown, or emotional reactivity. I integrate EMDR and Somatic Experiencing to help the nervous system process these experiences safely so you can feel more present, empowered, and connected in your life.
