Umbrella Therapy - Andrew Baker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Defining the Impact
Trauma: This is the emotional and physiological response to a deeply distressing or disturbing event. It can shatter your sense of security, making the world feel unpredictable and dangerous.
PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder): This can occur when the initial trauma doesn't "settle." It often involves intrusive memories (flashbacks), avoiding reminders of the event, and feeling constantly "on edge" or hyper-vigilant.
Our Path Forward: Safety First
Healing from trauma is not a race, and it is certainly not about being re-traumatized in the therapist's chair. Our work together is built on a foundation of predictability and choice.
Pacing and Control: We will go slowly. You are the one with your foot on the pedal. We only move toward difficult memories when you feel ready and regulated.
Grounding in the Present: Before we ever touch the pain of the past, we will focus on grounding techniques. These are practical tools designed to keep you tethered to the safety of the "here and now" when your mind tries to pull you back into a memory.
Safe Exposure: When the time is right, we will use gentle, managed exposure to help your brain process what happened. The goal is to transform "terrifying memories" into "past history"—things that happened to you, but no longer control you.
You don't have to stay trapped in the past. We will work together to build a present where you feel safe in your own skin again.

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.
