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.

Trauma and PSTD is caused by an initial sensitizing event. When an event upsets us, scares us or shocked us, that impression is linked up in your subconscious mind and so whenever you are in a similar situation you run the old pattern you learn from that initial sensitizing event. With hypnosis and Neuro Linguistic Programming we retrain your brain so that we lessen the impact of the previous event so that you have no emotional charge to the event anymore. And this shifts your perspective so that you can be free from those old emotions.

Grief Recovery Center
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LPC, LCSW, LMFT, LP, LPA-IPA
Trauma is any experience that overwhelms your sense of safety or well-being. It can result from abuse, assault, accidents, natural disasters, violence, infidelity, or other distressing events. Trauma may leave you feeling disconnected, anxious, numb, or on edge — even long after the event has passed.
Some people cope by withdrawing from loved ones or turning to unhealthy behaviors in an attempt to manage the pain. Others may not initially recognize their experience as traumatic, only to notice symptoms emerging months or years later.
At Grief Recovery Center in Houston, we provide trauma-informed therapy tailored to your unique experience. Whether your trauma is recent or long past, our licensed therapists create individualized treatment plans to help you process what happened, rebuild stability, and regain a sense of control.
Symptoms of trauma or PTSD may include intrusive memories or nightmares, heightened fear or hypervigilance, irritability, guilt or shame, emotional numbness, sleep disturbances, or avoiding reminders of the event. Not everyone who experiences trauma develops PTSD, but if symptoms are interfering with daily life, professional support can make a meaningful difference.
Through evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and other trauma-focused methods, we help clients regulate emotions, restore confidence, and move toward healing. When appropriate, therapy may be coordinated with medical providers for comprehensive care.
Call or text 832-413-2410 to schedule an appointment. You don’t have to navigate trauma alone.

Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I specialize in working with people who have experienced the worst that life can throw at them. This may include single devastating events such as natural disasters, catastrophic accidents, and loss. This may also include chronic experiences such as childhood neglect/abuse, prolonged exposure to big and little "T" traumas such as those experienced by service members, first responders, survivors of war, human trafficking, domestic violence, and other long-standing environmental stressors.
