PTSD/Trauma
Deborah Ejiofor
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Treating trauma in therapy focuses on helping individuals process and heal from past traumatic experiences. Therapeutic approaches are commonly used to help clients confront and reframe painful memories in a safe, supportive environment. Therapy also teaches coping strategies for managing triggers, reducing anxiety, and building emotional resilience. The goal is to help individuals regain a sense of control, rebuild self-worth, and work through the emotional and psychological effects of trauma at their own pace. With time and support, therapy helps individuals heal, find closure, and move toward a healthier, more balanced life.

Peter D. Ruffini, Sex & Porn Addiction Expert
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II, CSAT-C
I specialize in trauma and PTSD using evidence-based treatments including EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Prolonged Exposure (PE). Trauma often drives anxiety, anger, compulsive behavior, and emotional shutdown without being obvious. Treatment is structured and intentional, aimed at resolving trauma responses rather than managing symptoms indefinitely.

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.

Jason Hutchings
Psychologist, PsyD
Whether you have experienced a trauma or feeling the trauma of every day life, we can work to understand what the event meant and how it has imprinted in your psyche. This can free up a lot of energy that has become trapped in being hyper vigilant, irritable, angry, fearful and depressed.
