Insight Psychological Group
Psychologist, Psy.D.s, LCSWs, LPCs, LCADCs...
Many of our practitioners have specialized training in Trauma and treatment of PTSD. No two people's traumas are alike, and the effects of chronic trauma or Trauma differ from client to client. A helpful therapist will be very patient in letting the client safely, gradually immerse themselves in their memories, and build the strength to process the trauma and ultimately figure out how to become stronger as a result. Some clinicians are also specially trained in EMDR which is often the treatment of choice for clients with a significant trauma history.

Libby Shaw
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, ATR-BC, LPAT, ACS
What happened to you does not have to define you, but it is something that you have to work through, process, cope with, and make sense of. Trauma is multifaceted, and in my experience every situation is unique. Trauma work requires that we work together to establish a safe therapeutic relationship in order to explore the trauma, at your pace, and find ways to integrate what happened into your history, while not allowing it to define who you are or how you operate in the world.

Armanda Morel (Latino Healing Partners)
Registered Social Worker, MSW, LSW (Bilingual, English-Spanish)
Trauma has a way of staying with us long after the event has passed — showing up in our bodies, our triggers, our relationships, and our sense of safety in the world. Post-traumatic stress is a very real and very human response to overwhelming experiences, and healing from it requires patience, compassion, and specialized care. I'm here to provide a trauma-informed, bilingual (English-Spanish) space where you can begin to process what happened, reclaim your sense of safety, and move forward — not by forgetting the past, but by freeing yourself from its grip.

PTSD/Trauma
Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
I have 10 years of experience working with individuals and families impacted by trauma, including complex trauma, relational trauma, and PTSD. Trauma can take many forms and often affects not only how we think and feel, but also how we relate to others, how safe we feel in the world, and how we see ourselves.
In my work, I support clients in making sense of their experiences at a pace that feels safe and manageable. Trauma can leave people feeling stuck in patterns of hypervigilance, anxiety, emotional numbness, shame, or difficulty trusting others. For many, these responses are not just psychological, but also deeply connected to the body and nervous system.
I approach trauma work with care, stability, and a strong focus on creating a sense of safety in the therapeutic relationship. Together, we work to gently process painful experiences while also building tools for grounding, regulation, and emotional stability in the present moment. I integrate both insight-oriented work and practical coping strategies to help clients understand how their past continues to impact them today, while also supporting change and healing.
My goal is to help clients feel less alone in their experiences, reconnect with a sense of internal safety, and gradually move out of survival-based patterns and into a life that feels more grounded, present, and whole.
