Dr. Howard Chusid
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ed.D, LMHC, NCC, MAC
My other area of specialty is PTSD and Trauma. While I am conversant with EMDR and Rational Trauma Therapy, I have learned a new mode of therapy called Reset Therapy. Reset Therapy uses sound to reset the files in our hippocampus, so the original incident will be distorted and no longer amplify in the same way. It changes the affect that the record has, which is to be less responsive and better controlled. Reset therapy has worked in hundred of cases of military trauma and in cases of extreme physical trauma.

Alexander Fidelman
Hypnotherapist, CCHt
We deal with any trauma and PTSD, including early childhood trauma, on the deep subconscious level - exactly where it was created. It's not on the level of the superficial conscious mind using "talking" strategies. It's the most powerful, direct yet very gentle way to release past trauma and drama.

Brianna Gomez
Pre-Licensed Professional, MS - Bilingual Trauma Informed Therapist
Trauma and PTSD are frequently treated together since one can so frequently lead to the other. One of the most important elements of treating clients who have experienced trauma and PTSD is establishing a therapeutic dynamic that feels safe for clients. Behavioral strategies which may help decrease panic attacks and/or flashbacks is discussed in the beginning of treatment to allow the client time to get acclimated to the therapeutic relationship prior to beginning discussion regarding trauma. In these situations I implement Narrative Therapy which can make the experience of discussing traumatic experiences more comfortable for clients.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
My background as a licensed psychologist and a trauma survivor uniquely positions me to offer compassionate and effective support to individuals who have experienced trauma, whether it be abandonment or physical, emotional, or sexual abuse. My personal journey through trauma has given me firsthand insight into the complex and often challenging process of healing. This, combined with my education and professional experience, enables me to approach therapy with deep empathy, understanding, and a genuine connection to my clients' experiences. I believe in the power of resilience and the potential for growth in the face of adversity, and I am dedicated to helping survivors on their path to recovery and empowerment.
With EMDR as my primary treatment modality, I bring a wealth of experience and expertise in guiding individuals towards trauma healing. My approach focuses on collaboratively identifying trauma targets for processing while also prioritizing resourcing techniques to reestablish a sense of safety and inner peace. Through EMDR therapy, I help clients transform the way traumatic memories are stored in the brain, ultimately freeing them from flashbacks, nightmares, and avoidance patterns associated with trauma. My commitment is to support individuals on their journey to reclaim their lives and find lasting relief from the effects of trauma.

Cindy Yu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Trauma is like a infected wound that sometimes the surface layer has healed, but the damage is still continuing within. An unhealed wound can often be reopened by different triggers, and the symptoms and patterns repeat again. As your therapist, my role is guide and help you affectively "clean" and "treat" the wound, so that it can stop the damage and heal properly.
