Fairfax, Virginia therapist: Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D., psychologist
Trauma and PTSD

Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.

Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you’ve experienced trauma, you may feel like your mind and body are still reacting as if the event is happening now. You might have intrusive memories, heightened anxiety, difficulty relaxing, or feel triggered by situations that don’t seem to make sense. Even when you know you’re safe, your system may not fully believe it—leaving you feeling on edge, disconnected, or exhausted. I help clients process and resolve trauma in a way that feels safe, structured, and effective. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we work to understand and shift the thoughts that keep you feeling stuck or overwhelmed. With clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and NLP, we gently access and process the emotional patterns stored at a deeper level—helping your mind and body update their response to the present. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you reconnect with your life, your values, and a sense of forward movement. What’s often missing isn’t awareness—you may already understand what happened and why it affected you. What’s missing is a way to help your nervous system fully process the experience so it no longer reacts as if you’re still in danger. Without that, the symptoms can persist, even when you’re trying to move on. The fact that you’re here suggests you’re ready for relief. If you’re willing to approach this in a supportive and effective way, I can help you reduce triggers, feel more grounded, and regain a sense of safety, control, and peace in your life.

Falls Church, Virginia therapist: Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D., psychologist
Trauma and PTSD

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.

Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience helping clients who have experienced physical, emotional, and/or sexual trauma, particularly in their childhood. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming for many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you.

Trauma and PTSD

Mary Sayre

Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed, LPC
Trauma can be one incident or it can be a lifetime of neglect and absence of emotional and physical security. The brain changes to adapt to the unsafe environment. Working to rewire the brain is key in trauma therapy.

Alexandria, Virginia therapist: Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center, licensed professional counselor
Trauma and PTSD

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed counseling for anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, family issues, and a wide range of related emotional and psychological concerns. These difficulties can significantly impact daily functioning, relationships, self-esteem, work performance, and overall quality of life, often leaving individuals feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves and others. Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to therapy, integrating evidence-based trauma treatment with a personalized, client-centered framework. Rather than focusing only on symptom management, therapy explores underlying emotional patterns, life experiences, and trauma histories that may be contributing to current distress. As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support deep and lasting change. Treatment focuses on processing past experiences, reducing emotional reactivity, and helping clients develop healthier, more adaptive ways of thinking, feeling, and relating. Clients often come to therapy feeling weighed down by anxiety, depression, or unresolved trauma. Brad’s approach helps clients understand how past experiences may still be influencing present-day thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and works toward resolving these patterns in a structured and supportive way. Therapy is collaborative and individualized, designed to help clients regain a sense of control, clarity, and emotional stability. The goal is to support meaningful, sustainable change that improves relationships, strengthens resilience, and enhances overall well-being. Brad also specializes in religious trauma counseling for individuals who have experienced harm in religious or church settings. This may include spiritual abuse, coercion, guilt-based teachings, or other distressing experiences related to organized religion. Therapy provides a safe and non-judgmental space to process these experiences and rebuild a sense of identity, meaning, and emotional safety. Healing is possible. With the right support, clients can move beyond the impact of trauma and create a more balanced, empowered, and fulfilling life.
