Ah, the big one! EMDR, ART, ImTT are all State of the Art, Gold Standard treatment modalities for trauma I practice. I'm constantly amazed at two things: one, how resilient human beings are in their ability to survive trauma and then with the proper therapy to overcome the effects of that trauma; and two, how prevalent trauma is in our world. From Complex sexual trauma/molestation to missing the side of the trampoline and breaking a bone, to the trauma of being raised in an oppressive home, loss of job, status or lover, the effects are devastatingly limiting. I'm trained and experienced in EMDR, ART, and ImTT, all great trauma treatment modalities.

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.

Brittany Ryan-Berzins
Psychologist, PhD
I provide compassionate, trauma-informed therapy for individuals who have experienced trauma, including women who have experienced intimate partner violence, sexual violence, or other forms of interpersonal harm. Trauma can affect far more than our memories of what happened; it can shape how we experience our bodies, relationships, emotions, and sense of safety long after the immediate danger has passed. My approach integrates mindfulness, self-compassion, and cognitive behavioral strategies to help clients gently reconnect with themselves while developing a greater sense of safety, agency, and trust. We move at a pace that respects each person’s readiness, creating space to process painful experiences without becoming defined by them. Together, we work to understand the ways trauma may continue to influence thoughts, emotions, relationships, and patterns of behavior, while developing tools for grounding, emotional regulation, and healthy boundaries. My goal is not to erase what happened, but to help clients reclaim a sense of choice and connection, develop compassion for the ways they have learned to survive, and move toward a life that feels more expansive, secure, and fully their own.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with a healing approach called Internal Family Systems (IFS), which gently explores the different "parts" of you that have been shaped by past experiences. This work is especially meaningful for those who have navigated relational trauma or PTSD — and for anyone who simply wants a safe, compassionate space to make sense of their story and move toward healing.

Elizabeth Hammond
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Trauma—whether from a specific event, religious upbringing, or the systemic "small t" traumas of living in a marginalized body—lives in the nervous system. When we’ve experienced trauma, our bodies often stay in a state of high alert, making it difficult to feel safe or present. I use a polyvagal-informed approach to help you understand your body’s unique stress responses. Together, we work to move you out of "fight, flight, or freeze" and into a place of groundedness, where you can finally process the past without being held captive by it.
