Hider Shaaban
Psychologist, PsyD
Trauma is a complex subject, and it is one that is at times the foundation for other psychological difficulties. Exploring traumas and learning how to heal from them, and potentially grow from them, can help alleviate the symptoms that it is producing for you.

Does this sound familiar?
You feel isolated and alone - even when you aren’t.
Intense emotions suddenly flood your everyday life.
You are stuck in relationship patterns that just aren’t working anymore.
You try so hard to manage your emotions - only to feel worse moments later.
You are tired of being told to, “breathe,” “go to yoga” or “use the skills.”
You are critical towards yourself - and maybe those around you.
As Difficult As It May Be To Believe At Times,
Your survival system is doing what it is designed to do - protect you from harm.
It may be keeping you on high alert, constantly scanning for threats, or shutting down and disconnecting to shield you from the pain?
You Don’t Need More Coping Advice, You Need Relief.
Many of our clients come to us with long treatment histories - they’ve tried coping skills, thought challenging, self-help resources and behavior change - but the pain persists. With each failed treatment, they feel more shame, self-blame and hopelessness. But, we want you to know, it’s not your fault - those treatments were never designed to address the core of your suffering.

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.

Aaliyah Gilbert
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
Experiences of trauma can have lasting effects on how you feel in your body, relationships, and daily life, often showing up as anxiety, hypervigilance, emotional numbness, or difficulty feeling safe. I support clients in gently processing traumatic experiences at a pace that feels safe and manageable, without pressure to relive or disclose more than you are ready for. In our work together, we focus on building emotional safety, strengthening coping skills, and understanding how past experiences may be impacting your present. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, connected, and empowered as you move toward healing and reclaiming a sense of stability and control in your life.

The Well Counseling and Consulting Group
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, LMFT, LCSW, PHD
Trauma can stay in the body and mind long after the event is over. It may show up as hypervigilance, nightmares, numbness, or reactions that feel bigger than the moment. Our clinicians are trauma-informed and culturally grounded, and we move at a pace that keeps you in control. We focus on safety first, then on understanding your experience and helping you reclaim a life that isn’t organized around what happened.
