EMDR
Kelly Trawczynski, LMSW
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMSW, LCSW
You don't have to stay stuck in cycles of fear, shame, or disconnection. Therapy can be the bridge between surviving and truly living. I specialize in helping adults untangle complex layers of trauma, spirituality, and sexuality so they can reconnect to their truest selves. Whether you’re healing from a traumatic event, exploring your sexuality, working through sexual shame, or soothing a wounded inner child, you are welcome here.
With over eleven years of experience, I draw from specialized training in EMDR, trauma-focused CBT (TF-CBT), somatic (mind-body) therapy, sex therapy, mindfulness-based approaches, and DBT. Together, we’ll address both the emotional and physical imprints of trauma — building skills to calm anxiety, reclaim safety in your body, and rebuild trust in yourself.

Erica Warshawer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Me: I am warm, informal, highly engaging and I care deeply about my clients because I want them to feel better. Effectively, this means I am trying to work myself out of a job *grin*, but that truly is the goal, right?, to help you feel better so you can live your best life! I infuse humor into sessions when and if appropriate because laughter and joy is a form of medicine in and of itself and therapy doesn't have to be 100% intense and serious every step of the way. Clients with whom I work consistently report positive growth and an overall improvement in their quality of life. My favorite quote from a client after a few sessions of EMDR therapy together is: "I don't know what kind of witch doctor you are, but this sh*t works!" While I am neither a witch nor a doctor, I am committed to supporting my clients as they grow into and/or reclaim their own similar feeling of success.

Alyssa Steinway
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As multi-dimensional beings, it can often be difficult to find spaces where all aspects of our identities are truly seen, understood, and embraced. In our quest for belonging, we may disconnect from certain parts of ourselves, which can lead to feelings of isolation or unfulfillment. My goal is to create a space where individuals are invited to reconnect with every layer of their being—even those parts that may feel “too much” for the world around them.
I believe that behavior is learned and often arises as a function of survival. From this perspective, individuals can tap into their innate resiliency and explore their most authentic selves, discovering what they are truly seeking from therapy. I value the importance of being present in the "here and now," as research has shown that trauma is often stored in the body, and emotions serve as the vehicles through which the body seeks to restore balance after trauma.
As a therapist, my role is to establish a positive, supportive environment—a safe and nonjudgmental space where we can explore the emotional and relational experiences that have caused ongoing pain and suffering. This deep process offers insight into the internalized messages and experiences that shape a client's narrative of the world, while also providing a healing relational experience that the client can internalize as part of their transformation.
