PTSD/Trauma
Dawn McCarthy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
When you are living with the aftermath of trauma or PTSD, the past never truly feels like it’s in the past. Whether you are navigating childhood neglect, relational trauma, or a specific life-shattering event, trauma remodels both the brain and the body—leaving you trapped in a state of hypervigilance, emotional numbness, or chronic anxiety. I specialize in helping individuals safely process these painful experiences and reclaim their lives. Moving beyond traditional talk therapy, I utilize advanced, evidence-based brain-body modalities like EMDR and Brainspotting to access and gently release trauma stored deep within the nervous system. By pairing these techniques with Internal Family Systems (IFS), we honor the protective parts of you that helped you survive, while finally healing the root wounds. You don't have to carry the weight of what happened to you forever; together, we can help your nervous system find genuine safety and lasting peace.

Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I believe that most people who come to therapy, have some form of trauma in their life. Often people don't recognize the " little t traumas". I also work with people who have been through traumas such as sexual abuse and assault. I am able to use EFT with clients to help to clear the trauma from their body.

Circle of Healing Psychotherapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC
Trauma and PTSD varies from person to person. Each person experiences the same situation differently. Our focus will be to work on healing the trauma, reducing the symptoms as a result of the trauma and utilize effective coping skills. In addition, EMDR has proven to be an effective form of treatment with regards to 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.
