Christopher McDowell, PsyD

I have extensive experience treating children, adolescents, and adults for PTSD and trauma. I performed most of this work with families in the impoverished areas of Boston while I was with The Home for Little Wanderers Counseling Center. I would estimate that over 70% of my cases, during this eight-year job, were children and adolescents who were struggling with PTSD.

We help you safely explore, process, and release what’s been weighing you down — at your pace, and on your terms.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced trauma or are navigating symptoms of PTSD. Trauma can impact how you think, feel, and respond—often showing up as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, numbness, or feeling constantly on edge. Together, we focus on helping your nervous system feel safer, processing past experiences at a pace that feels manageable, and building tools to support regulation in everyday life. My approach integrates evidence-based therapies with mind-body techniques, helping you move out of survival mode and toward a place of greater stability, connection, and control.

PTSD/Trauma
Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Trauma is often misunderstood as something that’s “in the past”—but for many people, it’s still very present. It shows up in your body, your reactions, your relationships, and the way your nervous system responds to the world around you. You might feel on edge, shut down, easily overwhelmed, or like you’re constantly bracing for something. PTSD isn’t just about remembering what happened—it’s about how your system adapted to survive it. And those adaptations don’t just turn off because time has passed. For some, trauma can also show up as specific fears or phobias—intense, automatic responses that feel out of proportion but are deeply rooted in how your brain learned to stay safe.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t rush you to talk about things before you’re ready, and we don’t treat trauma like something to push through. We focus on safety first—helping you understand how your nervous system works and building your capacity to stay grounded. We offer S.A.F.E. EMDR (Somatic and Attachment-Focused EMDR), which is especially relevant for trauma because it prioritizes stabilization, pacing, and your body’s response—not just the memory itself. Trauma is stored in the nervous system, not just in thoughts, and this approach allows for processing that feels more contained, less overwhelming, and more attuned to your readiness.
Alongside this, we work with you to rebuild a sense of safety in your body, strengthen boundaries, and make sense of how trauma may still be shaping your patterns. We also name the cultural and systemic factors that impact how trauma is experienced and responded to, so you’re not carrying that context alone. This work is not about “getting over it”—it’s about helping your system feel safer, more regulated, and more able to move through life without constantly being pulled back into survival mode.

PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Cierra Listermann
Psychologist, Ph.D., HSP-P
Trauma can affect the way you see yourself, relate to others, manage emotions, and experience the world around you. Whether your trauma stems from a single event or ongoing experiences, I help clients understand the lasting impact of trauma responses, process painful experiences, and challenge beliefs that may keep them feeling stuck. Therapy focuses on helping you regain a sense of safety, control, and connection with yourself.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
PTSD can affect your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and ability to feel safe even after the traumatic experience has ended. Symptoms such as intrusive memories, avoidance, hypervigilance, guilt, shame, and emotional distress are often the brain’s attempts to protect you after trauma. I specialize in evidence-based PTSD treatment to help clients process traumatic experiences, reduce the impact of symptoms, and regain a greater sense of freedom and control.
Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD)
Complex trauma often develops from repeated or ongoing experiences that impact a person’s sense of safety, identity, relationships, and emotional regulation. C-PTSD can affect how you see yourself, trust others, manage emotions, and navigate relationships. I help clients understand these patterns through a trauma-informed lens, process the impact of their experiences, and develop healthier beliefs, boundaries, and coping strategies.
