PTSD/Trauma
Jacqueline Elster
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
Helping you process, integrate and reduce the emotional impact of traumatic experiences in a safe and controlled environment is my goal. This may involve identifying and altering distressing thoughts and behaviors that have followed a traumatic experience. Working with you to gradually desensitize yourself to trauma-related triggers, can help reduce avoidance and dramatically decrease anxiety. My area of expertise is the treatment of trauma and PTSD. Working in residential rehabilitations for substance use disorders and then working at the VA laid the foundation for expertise in this area. I am trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Seeking Safety, Accelerated Resolution Therapy and Written Exposure Therapy.

Finding Peace of the Poconos LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
We understand that trauma can take many forms—whether it stems from childhood experiences, relationship betrayals, accidents, violence, or grief. We meet each client where they are, using evidence-based approaches such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Brainspotting, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and somatic-focused therapy to support healing at both the emotional and nervous system level.

PTSD/Trauma
Elinor Nygren Szapiro
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA LPC, EMDR II, Brainspotting Certification, Hypnotherapy
Difficult and traumatic events, even ones that may seem like 'not that big a deal', stay lodged in our physical bodies and nervous systems. When you find yourself overreacting (or having a bigger reaction than a situation seems to warrant), that is often because the current situation is activating/triggering a previous event/trauma. Trauma is held in the body, below the mind, and, therefore, cannot be cleared by talk therapy alone. Thebody/mind, neurophysiological methods of Brainspotting and EMDR reach into the body and the primitive brain where the trauma is held and can help gently release the trauma.

PTSD/Trauma
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.

Wyatt Okeefe
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPC, LPCC
I work with adults who have experienced trauma and are coping with its lasting emotional and psychological effects. Therapy may address PTSD symptoms, anxiety, depression, intrusive memories, nightmares, avoidance, emotional distress, dissociation, and difficulties with trust or relationships. Together, we work to develop greater safety and stability, strengthen coping and grounding skills, process traumatic experiences when appropriate, and support recovery and renewed well-being.
