Trauma and PTSD
New Leaf Counseling and Wellness
Psychologist
Treating trauma and PTSD requires a comprehensive and compassionate approach that prioritizes safety, trust, and empowerment. Drawing from evidence-based therapies such as cognitive processing therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and somatic experiencing, I work with clients to process and integrate traumatic memories in a supportive therapeutic environment. Through psychoeducation, skill-building, and experiential techniques, I help clients regain a sense of control over their lives while addressing symptoms such as hypervigilance, flashbacks, and avoidance. My specialized expertise enables me to tailor treatment to each individual's unique needs, fostering healing, resilience, and a renewed sense of hope for the future.

Psychologist, Ph.D., CGP, F-AGPA
My approach to working with Trauma and PTSD is holistic, integrative and collaborative. My goals for trauma/PTSD work are trifold: 1) helping you heal from difficult traumatic memories that are keeping you stuck in the past so that you can focus on what is truly important in the present 2) helping you gain insight and awareness into how your past trauma(s) are impacting the relationships in your life (relationships with others and with your own self) and 3) helping you move away from fear/avoidance-based behaviors and choices and instead, make choices in your life that are aligned with your goals and values. I am here for you when you are ready to begin your healing journey.

Lauren Rothstein
Psychologist, Ph.D.
In working with Trauma and PTSD, I employ a trauma-informed and patient-centered approach. This involves creating a safe therapeutic space where individuals can explore and process their traumatic experiences. Techniques such as Prolonged Exposure (PE), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Written Exposure Therapy (WET), Skills Training in Affective and Interpersonal Regulation (STAIR), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) may be used to address symptoms and promote healing. The focus is on helping individuals regain a sense of control, manage triggers, address avoidance, and work towards building a foundation for long-term recovery.
