When a painful past experience keeps showing up in your present-day reactions, it can feel like you're permanently on high alert. We will work together at a pace that feels completely safe for you, often using EMDR, helping your brain and body finally register that you are out of danger.

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.

Lenny Gallo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Trauma isn’t just about what happened—it’s about how your nervous system responded. When trauma remains unresolved, it can show up as anxiety, shame, anger, numbness, flashbacks, sleep disturbance, relationship struggles, or chronic tension. Even long after the event is over, your body may still feel stuck in survival mode.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps your brain process traumatic experiences so they no longer carry the same emotional intensity. Rather than reliving the past, EMDR helps your system integrate it—so it stops disrupting your present.
Healing doesn’t mean forgetting. It means loosening trauma’s grip so you can feel safer, more grounded, and more like yourself again.
When appropriate, we may integrate other approaches such as IFS or talk therapy—but EMDR is often the foundation of trauma treatment in my practice.

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.
