PTSD/Trauma
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.

PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Yuye Zhang
Psychologist, PhD, MSW
Traumatic experiences can continue to affect how you feel, relate to others, and understand yourself long after the original evens have passed. I work with adults who are experiencing the effects of trauma, including PTSD and complex PTSD (CPTSD), in a supportive and collaborative space. Our work can focus on understanding how past experiences continue to shape the present, reducing self-blame, and developing greater flexibility, self-understanding, and connection with yourself and others.

PTSD/Trauma
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.
