Traumatic experiences don't need to keep holding you back. I am Attachment-Focused EMDR (AF-EMDR) Therapist-in-Training, and I also implement Narrative Therapy in collaboratively working with my clients in processing trauma and (re)gaining their voice in life.

Monica Grey
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, LPC
Trauma can leave you feeling alert, disconnected, or stuck in painful beliefs about yourself and what happened. I provide a thoughtful and structured space to process these experiences without reducing you to a diagnosis. Using Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and other trauma-informed approaches, we work toward helping you feel more present and connected to your life.

Daniel McNulty
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
It is my goal to cultivate our relationship by providing a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where you can feel understood and heard. To find the method that works best for each individual client struggling with a history of trauma, I draw from psychodynamic, humanistic, and existential perspectives. Additionally, I incorporate a variety of modalities into my work with clients including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing.

Dr. Samira Paul Olive Tree Psychology Clinic LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
At Olive Tree Psychology Clinic LLC, we understand that trauma and PTSD can fundamentally reshape how you experience the world, often leaving you in a state of hyper-vigilance or emotional numbness. Our approach is deeply trauma-informed, moving away from "what is wrong with you" to explore "what happened to you." We specialize in treating both acute trauma and the "invisible" wounds of complex and intergenerational trauma, particularly as they intersect with cultural identity and family history. We help you process distressing memories and regain a sense of safety in your own body. Our goal is to provide a secure, compassionate environment where you can move beyond survival mode and reclaim a life defined by your values rather than your past.

Taylor Allie
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC
You are not the experiences you've encountered, but sometimes it doesn't feel that way. I employ IFS techniques to help you better understand and compassionately reshape your relationship to each of the parts of you that make up the whole of who you are, including those intertwined with core memories that still elicit feelings of grief, resentment, or frustration.

Stacy Brumage
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCP, LCPC
Trauma can continue to affect your nervous system long after an experience has ended, showing up as hypervigilance, triggers, anxiety, avoidance, or feeling disconnected from yourself. I use trauma-focused approaches, including EMDR, to help clients process painful experiences and develop a greater sense of safety and stability.

Sandra Lashley
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have experience and training working with trauma, both what we call call big T and what we call little t. Trauma in general can overwhelm coping skills and can affect all levels of the body: Cognitive, psychological, emotional and physical functioning. The best and most effective trauma work is slow work, that rests on a foundation of safety and trust and I do believe that it is vitally important to not become retraumatized in therapy. This is careful, thoughtful work and like all therapy, each person's experience is unique and must be respected and integrated into each individual's own goals, temperament, coping skills and strengths.
