Maria Elizabeth LeBlanc
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.Ed MSW LICSW
Traumatic experiences can be singular or chronic. Often individuals feel the term trauma is only reserved for catastrophic experiences such as natural disasters, veteran's experiences, accidents, etc. More often than not, trauma can be the result of cumulative experiences throughout one's childhood and beyond (e.g. lack of safety, abuse, neglect, interpersonal violence as an adult, etc). PTSD is one's response to one or multiple traumas and can manifest as nightmares, intrusive re-experiencing of past traumatic event(s), hypervigilance, memory loss, exaggerated startle response, periods of dissociation, and more. I have experience working with both body/mind techniques to assist you in healing your trauma. Together we can come up with a plan that feels comfortable to you.

Mary Mesiha
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
If you’ve experienced trauma, it can leave a lasting impact—sometimes in ways that are hard to put into words. You might feel anxious, disconnected, or easily overwhelmed, even when things seem “fine” on the outside.
In therapy, we’ll create a safe and supportive space where you can begin to make sense of your experiences at your own pace. Together, we’ll focus on helping you feel more grounded, regain a sense of stability, and move toward healing in a way that feels manageable and respectful of your process.

Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LCAC, LPC, LPCC, LCMHC
Trauma is not only about what happened—it is about how those experiences continue to live within you. Many individuals find that past events show up as heightened reactivity, emotional shutdown, or difficulty feeling safe in relationships. My approach focuses on understanding how trauma has shaped your internal world, including patterns of protection, expectation, and emotional response. Therapy provides a structured and attuned environment where these experiences can be processed at a pace that feels manageable, allowing for greater regulation, integration, and a restored sense of safety over time.
Understanding that trauma and PTSD can have profound and lasting impacts on an individual’s life, my approach focuses on uncovering and addressing the unconscious processes that influence thoughts and behaviors. By delving into these deeper layers, clients gain insight into the root causes of their trauma and PTSD, whether stemming from past abuses, accidents, or other distressing events. This comprehensive understanding facilitates more effective and lasting healing.
What sets my practice apart is my commitment to genuine therapeutic connection and present-moment awareness. I emphasize the importance of a strong therapeutic relationship, where clients feel truly seen, heard, and understood. Through this connection, we work together to develop healthy coping mechanisms, build resilience, and restore a sense of safety and control.
At Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC, I tailor each treatment plan to the individual needs of my clients, ensuring they receive the most relevant and effective care. By integrating psychodynamic principles with experiential techniques, I help clients transform their struggles with trauma and PTSD into opportunities for profound personal growth and resilience.
You will find a dedicated partner in your journey toward healing from trauma and PTSD. Together, we will work to alleviate your symptoms, empower you with the tools and insights needed for lasting emotional well-being, and guide you toward a future filled with hope, strength, and renewed sense of self.

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.

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.
