Timothy Long
Registered Psychotherapist
I myself grew up in a toxic, dysfunctional, abusive family. It caused me to suffer many years from severe complex PTSD, anxiety, depression, social anxiety with severe blushing, and much more. Trauma and PTSD can be caused by many experiences in childhood or in our adult years. Just talk therapy will not resolve it. After trying many therapies myself, and training in different forms of therapy, I know what really works. I want to help you resolve your trauma and/or PTSD. It is not as difficult as many people think. I offer a 30 minute complimentary session for you to find how we can work together to heal and create the life you want. You can easily schedule on my website or email me.

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.

Christopher Schamber
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I am fully trained in EMDR, and am working toward full certification. I find this therapy to be highly effective in treating issues related to trauma. Through my years working at different mental health agencies within Los Angeles County and Orange County, trauma has been one of the most common issues clients have talked to me about. Trauma can influence the way somebody thinks or feels about themselves and the world around them. These incredibly stressful events often changes our behavior and impacts our ability to function. I am also trained and certified in Cognitive Processing Therapy, and use a variety of other forms of evidence-based treatment as well.
A quick note about trauma-- these events don't have to be dramatically disturbing to have an impact on your mental health. Feel free to read up on this article, which explains the rising understanding about the wide spectrum of traumatic experiences: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/trauma-and-hope/201703/different-types-trauma-small-t-versus-large-t

Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
My clinical experience with trauma includes a specialization in graduate school of Psychological Trauma Studies and a completion of training of Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR). Being trauma-informed has significantly informed how I practice therapy. Together we can practice coping skills, help with nervous system regulation, distress tolerance, improve your relationship with others and yourself.

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Something bad happens, nothing good follows, and everyone pretends it's okay. This simple series of events can lead to lasting emotional and physical symptoms. Sometimes the symptoms make us feel crazy. Let me assure you, you are not crazy and you are not alone. I am trained in a trauma treatment technique called eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), that can allow for integration of traumatic memories into one's healthy and coherent narrative. I would be honored to provide you a safe space to work through the painful experiences that just won't seem to go away.
