PTSD/Trauma
Raber Hamad
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, NCC, LPC
Trauma from years ago can still run your relationship today. It shows up as a short fuse over small things, a shutdown when your partner needs you most, a body that can't relax, or a wall that goes up whenever things get close. Your partner feels it even when they can't name it.
I work with trauma using Internal Family Systems (IFS). IFS understands your reactions as protective parts of you that learned their jobs for good reasons. You won't have to retell the worst moments over and over. You'll build a steady relationship with those parts, so the wounded places underneath can finally set down what they've been carrying. You'll still remember what happened. It just stops running the show.
I have particular experience with childhood and relational trauma, trauma connected to immigration and leaving a home country behind, and trauma that keeps surfacing inside a marriage. If you're in couples therapy with me, this work can happen alongside it.

Middle Path Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW, LPC, PLPC
We specialize in helping clients heal from trauma and PTSD, including experiences that continue to affect their sense of safety, relationships, and emotional well-being long after the event has passed. Trauma can show up as anxiety, hypervigilance, emotional numbness, intrusive memories, or feeling disconnected from yourself or others. Many clients feel stuck in survival mode, even when they logically know they are safe. Our trauma-informed, attachment-based approach helps clients process these experiences at a pace that feels safe and manageable, rebuild a sense of internal stability, and develop greater trust in themselves and their world. Therapy supports clients in moving from survival toward a life that feels more grounded, connected, and fully their own.

PTSD/Trauma
Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
From the perspective of Somatic Experiencing, trauma isn't the thing that happened 15 years ago (or last week), it's the ongoing effects that that incident continues to have on your body.
We can work together to figure out how your body is still reacting to that incident, and work to help your body 'catch up' to the present moment. If you're safer now than you were then, there are ways we can help your body 'complete' the threat response from so long ago, and land in the comparative safety of the present moment.
I can't treat PTSD, so if you've been diagnosed with PTSD you should still work with a licensed mental health professional, even as you work with me. What I can do is support your body in turning down the volume on that threatened feeling that has been coming up since the trauma-inducing events.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
PTSD can be effectively treated or managed using hypnotherapy, often as an adjunct to traditional therapies, as evidenced by studies indicating significant improvements in symptoms like nightmares and flashbacks. It is used to address root causes and provides controlled access to memories, lowering physiological reactivity.Key Details on Hypnotherapy for PTSD:How it Works: Hypnosis helps individuals with PTSD access a deep state of relaxation, making the subconscious more receptive to positive suggestions, which reframes the emotional response to trauma.Targeted Symptoms: Hypnotherapy can reduce PTSD-related anxiety, flashbacks, nightmares, and emotional numbing.Techniques: Approaches include clinical hypnosis, solution-focused hypnotherapy, and self-hypnosis techniques to help patients manage anxiety on their own.
Trauma and PTSD are not as bad as they sound.I will help you cope with the symptoms. I will help you revisit your trauma and have closure once and for all. I use Dicit hypnotherapy to help you get resilient. I will help you recover and find peace. Patients with this disorder are getting resilient in no time. So should you.
