Boston, Massachusetts therapist: Angelynn Lindor, counselor/therapist
Trauma and PTSD

Angelynn Lindor

Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
Trauma doesn’t just live in the past—it lingers in the body, in relationships, and in how we see ourselves. Whether you’ve experienced childhood trauma, abuse, loss, or ongoing emotional wounds, I provide a safe and grounded space to process what you’ve been through without judgment. I work from a trauma-informed lens that honors your pace, your boundaries, and your story. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, grounding techniques, and emotional processing strategies, I help clients reduce symptoms of PTSD, build safety within themselves, and begin to restore trust—in their own voice, body, and future. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.

Wakefield, Massachusetts therapist: Kristy Harrington, licensed mental health counselor
Trauma and PTSD

Kristy Harrington

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
If you've experienced trauma in the context of relationships, I can help you understand how it impacted you as it occurred, how it continues to impact you in adulthood and to develop strategies to manage that impact in a productive and healthy way. I approach working with trauma starting with the inquiry of "what happened to you?", instead of the common inquiry of "what's wrong with you?". Self-awareness, self-compassion and healthy coping and relationship skills can support you in living a satisfying life after experiencing trauma.

Boston, Massachusetts therapist: Vida Mendez, licensed clinical social worker
Trauma and PTSD

Vida Mendez

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, EMDR II
Time doesn’t heal all wounds. You may have moved forward with your life, but still find yourself reacting in ways that don’t fully make sense—overthinking, shutting down, feeling on edge, or carrying emotional weight that never fully lifted. Trauma can continue to affect how you feel and respond long after the experience is over. I help clients work through traumatic experiences so they no longer have the same hold on them. Using EMDR, we help the brain fully process what happened so it no longer carries the same emotional and physiological impact.

Trauma and PTSD

Kerline Theodore

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I specialize in working with adults experiencing trauma and PTSD, including high-functioning, high-achieving individuals who may appear “put together” on the outside but feel overwhelmed internally. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and integrate trauma-informed, attachment-focused approaches to help clients process overwhelming experiences and understand how past events impact emotions, relationships, and daily functioning. In a safe and supportive space, we work to identify triggers, process difficult memories, and build emotional regulation and nervous system stability. My approach emphasizes self-compassion, resilience, and empowerment—helping you move out of survival mode.
