McKinney, Texas therapist: Kreins Psychological Services, psychologist
Trauma and PTSD

Kreins Psychological Services

Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in trauma and PTSD, my treatment approach is rooted in compassion, safety, and evidence-based interventions. Through therapies such as cognitive processing therapy (CPT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), I collaborate with individuals to process traumatic memories, challenge negative beliefs, and develop effective coping strategies. Creating a safe therapeutic environment is paramount, allowing clients to explore their experiences at their own pace while feeling supported and validated. Psychoeducation about trauma responses and self-regulation techniques empowers individuals to manage symptoms and regain a sense of control over their lives. Additionally, I integrate mindfulness practices, relaxation techniques, and grounding exercises to promote emotional regulation and resilience. My goal is to facilitate healing, restore a sense of safety, and empower individuals to thrive beyond their traumatic experiences.

Falls Church, Virginia therapist: Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D., psychologist
Trauma and PTSD

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.

Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience helping clients who have experienced physical, emotional, and/or sexual trauma, particularly in their childhood. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming for many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you.

Chicago, Illinois therapist: Beck Gardner, pre-licensed professional
Trauma and PTSD

Beck Gardner

Pre-Licensed Professional, M.A.
Trauma can have surprising and destabilizing impacts on so many areas of one's life. Understandably so, because it can be scary and painful to talk about, it can often go unexplored, hiding the ways in which it's impacted a person. I work with folks to provide a space where we attempt to understand traumatic experiences they've been through and the various ways that trauma has impacted them.
