Jack Szary
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
I work with adults who have experienced trauma or are struggling with post-traumatic stress, including those coping with past abuse, accidents, or other life-altering events. Many clients experience intrusive memories, hyperarousal, avoidance, or emotional numbness that interfere with daily life and relationships. My approach combines evidence-based trauma therapies with compassionate support, helping clients process their experiences safely, build coping skills, and gradually regain a sense of safety, control, and well-being.

Emily Brenner
Art Therapist, LCAT, ATR-BC
Feeling on edge, shut down, or like your reactions don’t always make sense, even when you try your hardest to move forward. Past experiences can stay in your body and show up as anxiety, overwhelm, or a constant sense of unease. In our work, we’ll go at your pace to help you feel safer and more grounded. My approach allows work to understand your responses, process what you’ve been through, and help you reconnect with a sense of stability and control.

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Something bad happens, nothing good follows, and everyone pretends it's okay. This simple series of events can lead to lasting emotional and physical symptoms. Sometimes the symptoms make us feel crazy. Let me assure you, you are not crazy and you are not alone. I am trained in a trauma treatment technique called eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), that can allow for integration of traumatic memories into one's healthy and coherent narrative. I would be honored to provide you a safe space to work through the painful experiences that just won't seem to go away.

Karen Bisignano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Trauma comes in big T or little t varieties. Not all come with a PTSD or CPTSD diagnoses. Using EMDR and other treatment approaches, I can help you sort through and understand what happened so you live without the deep pain.

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.
