Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I believe that most people who come to therapy, have some form of trauma in their life. Often people don't recognize the " little t traumas". I also work with people who have been through traumas such as sexual abuse and assault. I am able to use EFT with clients to help to clear the trauma from their body.

Dr. Jessica Shine
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LPC
Most people will experience trauma in their lifetime whether it’s a car accident, abuse or neglect, the sudden death of a loved one, a violent criminal act, exposure to the violence of war, or a natural disaster.
While many people can recover from trauma over time with the love and support of family and friends and bounce back with resiliency, others may discover the effects of lasting trauma, which can cause a person to live with deep emotional pain, fear, confusion, or posttraumatic stress far after the event has passed.
In these circumstances, the support, guidance, and assistance of a therapist are fundamental to healing from trauma.

Dr. Amy Karbasi
Psychologist, PsyD
I provide therapy for adults experiencing trauma and PTSD, including the effects of medical trauma, frightening health experiences, and other distressing or overwhelming events, including trauma from childhood, abuse, military/combat, and more. I use evidence-based, trauma-focused treatments such as Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure Therapy, and more. These approaches can help you understand and work through trauma-related symptoms such as anxiety, avoidance, repetitive memories or nightmares, heightened alertness, and feeling unsafe or mistrusting of others. Treatment is individualized and may incorporate cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness, exposure (gradually and safely approaching feared activities or triggers), and mind-body approaches to help you process difficult experiences and regain a greater sense of safety, confidence, and engagement in your life.

Rizaldy R Ferrer
Psychologist, PHD
I approach therapy from the belief that emotional difficulties such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, grief, and other psychological concerns are best understood not only by their symptoms, but by how we respond to pain, uncertainty, expectations, and change. My work often focuses on helping clients recognize unhelpful patterns, become less governed by comparison or rigid thinking, tolerate discomfort more effectively, and identify small but meaningful shifts that can change the direction of their lives. Rather than viewing people as simply “right or wrong” or “well or unwell,” I try to understand what is happening, how it developed, and what may help someone move forward with greater awareness, flexibility, and intention.
