Christina Song
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
I work with individuals experiencing trauma and PTSD from a trauma-informed, relational, and strengths-based perspective. Trauma can result from a single event, repeated experiences, or ongoing stress, and its effects often extend beyond memory—impacting relationships, the nervous system, and daily functioning. In therapy, we move at your pace, focusing on safety, stabilization, and your personal goals.
Our work may include processing traumatic experiences, building coping skills, regulating the nervous system, and strengthening resilience. Therapy is a collaborative space where you can reclaim a sense of safety, reconnect with your body and emotions, and develop strategies to navigate triggers and stressors while honoring your unique experiences. My approach emphasizes empowerment, self-compassion, and sustainable healing rather than rushing toward “closure” or forcing outcomes.

Kristee Barker
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S
I am a trauma specialist. Trauma — whether from childhood, relationships, military service, first responder work, or sudden life events — leaves lasting imprints on the nervous system and on how you see yourself and the world. I use trauma‑focused approaches like EMDR and IFS to help you process what happened with safety and clarity, and skills‑based approaches like DBT and CBT to support you in building steadier, healthier ways of coping. My style is gentle and directive. Together, we work to calm your nervous system, untangle the patterns that trauma created, and help you feel grounded, empowered, and more fully yourself again.
