PTSD/Trauma
Michael Bernstein
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Trauma and PTSD can leave you feeling trapped by the past, often manifesting as hypervigilance, intrusive memories, or a sense of emotional numbness. My approach focuses on creating a safe environment to process these experiences and reduce their power over your daily life. By utilizing evidence-based modalities like EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we work together to de-sensitize traumatic triggers and integrate difficult memories. This process helps you move from a state of survival and "stuckness" toward a place of resilience, allowing you to reclaim your sense of safety and agency in the world.

PTSD/Trauma
Sarah Sternlieb
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
You’re going about your day when a memory from childhood comes back so vividly that suddenly it’s hard to focus on anything else.
Even after the memory passes, it can take a while before you feel like you’re fully back in the present.
I use EMDR therapy to help adults work through trauma and PTSD from childhood so memories of what happened can feel more like something from the past instead of something that keeps taking over the present.

Dan Walinsky
Psychologist, PhD
I've found that the range of traumas that people experience disrupts our experience of day-to-day life and relationships in so many ways. So many people who've experienced patterns of traumatizing, persistently invalidating, or minimizing experiences have found coping strategies to manage the profound impacts of trauma but eventually find that those strategies no longer work. Together, we will look at the impact of traumas and using a range of practices, which potentially include EMDR, internal parts work, and polyvagal theory, we will work to supportively rebuild a sense of self-guided trust in the world.

CHRISTIE BAUR PSYCHOTHERAPY
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
Experiencing trauma—whether recent or from the past—can be incredibly painful and leave lasting effects on your emotions, relationships, and sense of safety in the world. You might notice anxiety, flashbacks, avoidance, or feeling “stuck” in patterns that are hard to break. Healing is possible, and therapy can help you reclaim your life.
In our work together, we create a safe, compassionate space to process and make sense of your experiences. Using evidence-based approaches, we’ll focus on helping you feel grounded, regulate emotions, and gradually reduce the impact of trauma on your daily life. You’ll learn tools to cope with triggers, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and build resilience, so you can feel more in control and more connected to yourself and others.

Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness
Psychologist, PhD, JD
Not all therapists provide evidence-based therapies, and not all therapists who claim to provide CBT are specially trained in this approach. The Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness team consists of doctoral-level clinicians who are highly trained experts in cognitive behavioral therapies.
We are also trained in tailoring your treatment to your individual needs, so you can be sure you are receiving highly individualized care while also benefiting from the techniques that are proven to work.

Danielle Farabaugh
Psychologist, Psy.D.
My approach to treating trauma and PTSD is grounded in evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and trauma-focused interventions, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Prolonged Exposure (PE). I provide a safe and supportive environment where clients can process traumatic experiences at their own pace while learning skills to reduce distress and re-establish a sense of safety and control. Through structured, collaborative work, clients learn to reframe unhelpful beliefs, manage triggers, and build resilience, promoting healing and recovery from the impact of trauma.

Rising Phoenix Therapy - Dempsey Young, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Trauma is my BIGGEST specialty and have worked a lot across my entire career in this area. Trauma affects everyone differently, and I know that each person's journey through it is unique. Over the years, I’ve learned and applied a variety of proven techniques to help people in ways that feel right for them. Trauma can show up in many ways, like struggling with self-esteem, feeling shame, staying in unhealthy relationships, having trouble setting boundaries, times of dissociation, or feeling stuck in fight/flight/fawn mode. It can also lead to anxiety, depression, and nightmares. I believe that, together, we can work toward not just surviving, but truly healing and thriving on your path forward.
