Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Trauma is not just what happened, it is how the nervous system adapted in order to survive. PTSD symptoms such as hypervigilance, flashbacks, emotional numbing, or reactivity are protective responses that once served a purpose. Using approaches such as EMDR, Brainspotting, and somatic work, we gently process trauma so your body no longer has to live as though the danger is still present.

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.

I have provided trauma informed care since 2015 and have training alongside knowledge towards how trauma begins, how trauma impacts our mind and body, and the work it can take to heal. Majority of my clinical work focuses on supporting people to share their story, learn and re-learn tools to cope with present-day stress, and move forward from past experiences that have caused harm. Trauma can be defined in several ways and I work with clients to find what makes most sense to them.

Yaffa Dyckman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Traumatic experiences and PTSD can be so hard to live with. It can mean sleepless nights, avoidance of people and places, hypervigilance and more. EMDR is a highly effective treatment for PTSD. I am an EMDR certified clinician. I have seen the wonderful results that EMDR can have with both traumatic experiences and memories as well as with negative beliefs and feelings that we take out of trauma.I take the pace that is right for each client. Let's do this work together. It can be a game changer.

Anneka Gavrin
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Traumatic experiences can continue to affect how people feel, think, and relate to others long after the events themselves have passed. Individuals may experience anxiety, emotional numbness, difficulty trusting others, or patterns that feel hard to change. Anneka approaches trauma work with care and sensitivity, helping clients process difficult experiences at a pace that feels safe and supportive. Through this work, clients can begin to reconnect with themselves, develop greater emotional resilience, and move toward a deeper sense of stability and well-being.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
I have specialized training in trauma treatment, including Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, which views trauma as something deeply rooted in the body and nervous system. In our work together, we focus on safety, pacing, and understanding the coping strategies your system has developed in response to overwhelming experiences.
Trauma can leave people feeling fragmented, disconnected, or stuck in patterns of dissociation or reactivity. Using somatic awareness and parts work, we learn to track these responses, build regulation tools, and develop a more compassionate and empowered relationship with your experience.

East New York is a Brooklyn neighborhood with deep Black and Latino roots, a history of disinvestment, and a strong tradition of community organizing and mutual support. Mental health needs are shaped by economic stress, housing instability, community violence exposure, and a long-standing shortage of accessible local care — alongside growing grassroots and clinic-based efforts to close that gap. NYC Health + Hospitals facilities and community health organizations are central to access, with the wider city market available in principle if not always in practice.
