Millianys Garcia

Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When we experience a trauma, it fundamentally changes our beliefs about ourselves, other people, or the world—or all three. These changes can be tremendously disruptive to our lives and our relationships. I work with trauma in three ways: with techniques to address acute symptoms, with psychodynamic work to understand and challenge the maladaptive beliefs and patterns that resulted from the trauma, and with EMDR to intensively reprocess the trauma in a healthier, more integrated way.

5 Pointes Wellness
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC, ACS, CST
Trauma can feel deeply isolating and impact every part of life. I use trauma-informed therapies—like EMDR, somatic experiencing, and gentle processing—to help clients safely reclaim their narrative, feel grounded in their bodies, and restore trust in themselves and others.

Lisa Taylor-Austin
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LPC, LMHC, CFMHE, CFBA, LCPC, LCMHC
I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to support clients in working through experiences that may feel emotionally or physically “stuck.” This approach helps process and integrate past traumatic events so that the emotions and body-based responses connected to those memories become less overwhelming. As a result, clients are often better able to remain present, engage more fully in their lives, and move toward their authentic potential. EMDR has been shown to be particularly effective for individuals experiencing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and complex PTSD (C-PTSD).

Chananya Abraham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, MS, LPC
I work with individuals living with trauma and PTSD by helping them understand how past experiences continue to live in the body, nervous system, and patterns of relationship. Together, we gently and deliberately process unresolved experiences, reduce the intensity of traumatic memories, and restore a sense of safety, agency, and control. My goal is not only symptom relief, but helping clients reclaim their identity, rebuild trust in themselves, and move forward with greater strength, clarity, and purpose.

Alistair Highet
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LP, NCPsyA
Trauma leaves a mark on us, one that sometimes we can't see, but only experience. PTSD is complex, and sometimes the mechanism of our behavior is hard to uncover. We can explore that in an open, compassionate, non-judgmental way. Being human is very difficult, and we are all vulnerable to the wounds the world inflicts on us. But we can move forward. I know myself, and I know others who have done so.
