Trauma and PTSD
Christopher McDowell, PsyD
Psychologist, 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.

Bridges Art Therapt
Art Therapist, ATR-BC, ATCS
Art therapy is very beneficial for people who have experienced trauma. Because we create art not just using our head but also using our body, art therapy is considered a body-based therapy. Traumatic memories are stored in our bodies through our senses: sight, sound, smells, sensations, etc. Because we use our bodies to create art, we are treating the trauma where it is stored - in our bodies. Art therapy also often feels safer than simply talking about trauma because the client is able to create an object that is separate from their body, allow them to, at least for a moment, separate from the trauma.

Trauma and PTSD
Ryan Egan
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Did your child experience a big change after something tough or scary? At first, you might have thought that being moody, avoidant, or jumpy was normal after what happened, but how long is too long? Children are resilient, but sometimes they need some extra help processing the difficult event. We'll use proven methods to revisit the terrible memory, lighten the load safely and gently, and make sense of it from a child's perspective.

Trauma and PTSD
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.

We offer trauma-informed therapy (including EMDR) for folks carrying heavy stuff — whether from childhood, past relationships, or recent experiences. We help you safely explore, process, and release what’s been weighing you down — at your pace, and on your terms.
