Eve Palmatier
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I am trained in TF-CBT, and specialize in supporting clients through their trauma work. When someone is a survivor of trauma they continue to live with a nervous system which is hardwired to help them survive in unsafe conditions. This likely is what kept them alive and able to make it to the present day, but it's a great inconvenience to be in Survival Mode when trying to get through daily life. It also can mean that a person is well aware of how NOT to live a healthy life, but has had little to no guidance on what to do in order to build the kind of life they'd like. Healing from trauma can feel impossible, but it is entirely doable. I work to support people in cleaning out those old emotional wounds, so they can finally heal properly and begin living the life they want for themselves. It's hard, and it's possible.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
As a psychologist working with trauma, I utilize evidence-based treatments to help clients process and heal from their experiences. I often use Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) to assist clients in addressing and reframing the negative thought patterns and emotional responses associated with their trauma. This approach helps them develop coping strategies and gradually face and work through their traumatic memories. Additionally, I incorporate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to facilitate the processing of distressing memories and reduce their emotional charge. My approach is empathetic and client-centered, ensuring that each individual feels supported and empowered throughout their recovery journey. By applying these evidence-based treatments, I aim to help clients regain a sense of safety and control, ultimately guiding them towards healing and resilience.

Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When we experience a trauma, it fundamentally changes our beliefs about ourselves, other people, or the world—or all three. These changes can be tremendously disruptive to our lives and our relationships. I work with trauma in three ways: with techniques to address acute symptoms, with psychodynamic work to understand and challenge the maladaptive beliefs and patterns that resulted from the trauma, and with EMDR to intensively reprocess the trauma in a healthier, more integrated way.
