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.

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.

Christopher McDowell, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
I have extensive experience treating children, adolescents, and adults for PTSD and trauma. I performed most of this work with families in the impoverished areas of Boston while I was with The Home for Little Wanderers Counseling Center. I would estimate that over 70% of my cases, during this eight-year job, were children and adolescents who were struggling with PTSD.

Rachel Miller
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Trauma doesn’t happen in isolation—it’s shaped by relationships, community, and larger social systems. I work with individuals to understand the personal and systemic impacts of trauma and PTSD, including historical, cultural, and structural oppression. Together, we focus on reclaiming safety, resilience, and agency while navigating the complex ways trauma shows up in the body, mind, and relationships.

Allen Shamon
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I provide psychoeducation about PTSD, helping individuals understand the symptoms, causes, and treatment options for the disorder. I also educate clients about the neurobiology of trauma, the impact of trauma on the brain and body, and common reactions to trauma. Psychoeducation helps individuals develop insight into their symptoms and empowers them to take an active role in their recovery journey.
