Michelle Foster
Counselor/Therapist, LCSW
When working with clients experiencing trauma and PTSD, I primarily use Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). These approaches help clients process traumatic memories, challenge negative beliefs, and develop effective coping strategies. I also emphasize creating a safe and supportive environment to facilitate healing and resilience.

Stacy King
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
In 2020, I was trained in Compassionate Inquiry, a trauma-based psychotherapeutic method developed by Dr. Gabor Matè that reveals what lies beneath the appearance we present to the world. His view is that trauma is at the root of all human dysfunction, addiction, affliction, disease, confusion, and separation from the self.

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.

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.
