Trauma and PTSD
Cynthia Cerrato
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, Certified in Holistic Integrative Health
At Corazón y Aire, I specialize in trauma and PTSD and hold space through a decolonized lens, recognizing the significant impact of personal and intergenerational trauma on individuals and communities. I understand that trauma is not only an individual experience but also a collective one, often rooted in historical injustices, cultural dislocation, and systemic oppression. My approach emphasizes the importance of honoring cultural narratives and resilience while addressing the complexities of intergenerational trauma. I explore how past experiences—both personal and ancestral—shape current mental health and well-being.

Trauma and PTSD
Nathan Ely, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MDiv, LMFT
As an EMDR certified therapist, I help people recover from traumatic experiences. Even though our mind knows the trauma happened in the past, our bodies can relive these experiences in the present. EMDR allows the mind and body to heal and reconnect as you process traumatic experiences and move toward a place of wholeness and restoration.

Trauma and PTSD
Jasmine Wilson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP-IT
You may carry the effects of trauma even if you don’t always think of your experiences as “trauma.” Many people living with complex trauma struggle with anxiety, shame, people-pleasing, emotional numbness, relationship difficulties, hyper-independence, or feeling constantly on edge. Often, these patterns began as ways to survive difficult environments or relationships.
Healing from trauma is not about forcing yourself to revisit everything at once. In our work, we’ll move at a pace that feels safe while helping your nervous system learn that the past is not happening now. Together, we can work toward greater emotional regulation, healthier relationships, deeper self-understanding, and a stronger sense of safety within yourself.

Trauma and PTSD
Dr. Tracy Mallett
Psychologist, Psy.D., L.M.F.T., Licensed Psychologist
Experiencing trauma can have lasting effects on your emotions, thoughts, and relationships. I specialize in helping adults, adolescents, and families who have experienced traumatic events, including childhood adversity, accidents, medical trauma, abuse, or other significant life stressors.
Therapy provides a safe, structured environment to process distressing experiences, understand how trauma affects daily functioning, and develop coping strategies to regain control and stability. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, and EMDR-informed strategies, tailored to each client’s needs and pace.
In our work together, you will learn tools for managing anxiety, hypervigilance, intrusive thoughts, and emotional dysregulation. Therapy also focuses on rebuilding trust, enhancing self-compassion, and improving relationships that may have been impacted by trauma.
My goal is to help clients move from surviving to thriving—reducing the hold of traumatic experiences while fostering resilience, empowerment, and a sense of safety in daily life. Recovery is a process, and I guide each client with compassion, structure, and clinically grounded support throughout the journey.

Trauma and PTSD
Brandon Guin
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Traumatic experiences can leave us paralyzed and pessimistic about our future. It doesn't have to be that way. I have training in using EMDR, an evidenced-based approach to treating trauma and PTSD. This approach helps the mind and body process what has happened while decreasing the risk of re-traumatizating the individual. In this manner, the individual is able to access internal and external supports and resources for the mind and body that may not have been available during the traumatic event or events.

Lisa Paer
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, EMDR Certified
I provide trauma therapy that can help you heal from the wounds of the past and live a more fulfilling life. My service is based on a technique called EMDR, which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. EMDR is a proven method that can help you process your traumatic memories and reduce their negative impact on your present and future. It can help you feel less distressed, more confident, and more in control of your emotions and reactions to triggers. Whether you've experienced a single event or a series of traumas, I can help you work through them. I'm a trauma-informed therapist who will create a safe and supportive space for you to work through your past, enhance your coping skills, and improve your quality of life.
