Brittany Washington
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFTA
I specialize in helping individuals navigate the effects of trauma and PTSD by providing a safe, compassionate space to process difficult memories and emotions. Using evidence-based approaches like trauma-focused therapy, narrative therapy, and mindfulness, I support clients in understanding the impact of their experiences and developing healthier coping mechanisms. Whether trauma stems from childhood, abuse, loss, or other significant life events, my goal is to help clients reclaim their sense of safety, self-worth, and empowerment, allowing them to move forward with greater resilience and healing. Together, we work to transform pain into strength and build a path toward lasting recovery.

PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
I specialize in helping individuals who have experienced trauma or are dealing with PTSD. My approach includes trauma-informed therapies like CPT, PE, somatic experiencing, and other techniques designed to help clients process and heal from their traumatic experiences. I work with clients to address symptoms like flashbacks, anxiety, and avoidance, and to help them regain a sense of safety, control, and empowerment. My goal is to create a supportive environment where clients can work through their trauma at their own pace, build resilience, and ultimately move toward healing and recovery. Referrals to EMDR or medication management are offered when appropriate.

PTSD/Trauma
Ayden Ferstenberg
Psychologist, PsyD
Trauma can continue to shape how you experience yourself, other people, and the world long after the original events have ended. You may understand intellectually that you're no longer in danger, yet still find yourself reacting intensely to certain situations, struggling to trust others, feeling disconnected from your emotions, or repeating patterns you wish you could leave behind. My approach to trauma therapy goes beyond recounting what happened or learning to manage symptoms. We work at a pace that respects your capacity, exploring how past experiences continue to influence your present while creating new emotional experiences that can help shift deeply learned expectations about safety, connection, and your own worth. I work especially well with people who experienced relational trauma, narcissistic abuse, childhood abuse or neglect, or complex trauma.

PTSD/Trauma
Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I work with individuals who have experienced trauma and its lasting emotional, psychological, and physiological effects. With extensive clinical experience treating trauma across community mental health and private practice settings, I incorporate biological and neurological education to help clients understand how trauma impacts the brain, body, and nervous system. I also help clients learn how to regulate the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, building skills to reduce reactivity, increase grounding, and restore a sense of internal safety. Together, we process traumatic experiences at a safe pace while strengthening emotional regulation and resilience. My approach is compassionate, structured, and trauma-informed, supporting clients as they move toward healing and integration.
