I work with adults affected by acute trauma, complex or relational trauma, military and first-responder experiences, and posttraumatic stress. Treatment is paced collaboratively and may integrate relational psychodynamic therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, acceptance-based work, exposure, and regulation skills to address both trauma symptoms and their effects on identity, trust, relationships, and the body.

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I have been working with individuals who have trauma and PTSD for over 20 years. For many years this was my main focus and as a evidence-based therapist I learned many different ways of treatment and developed a hybrid approach that I taught to other therapist for years. I start by helping you reduce your symptoms, then if your willing we re-process your trauma and help you look at it in a different way by identifying what is your "stuck point" and working to move that along. That in itself can also reduce remaining symptoms. With what is left, I help you move forward with your remaining symptoms and do what make you happy, despite of your symptoms. It may make you anxious to do something but at the end of the day, the joy you felt makes it worth it. Again, remember, you would be doing this with much less anxiety than when you started therapy. This a is a proven approach that has worked with so many individuals with trauma.

PTSD/Trauma
Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
Trauma manifests in a myriad of ways in our minds and bodies. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can result from experiencing or witnessing a life threatening event or significant loss, whereas complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD) may result from chronic abuse, neglect or other forms of mistreatment that happened repeatedly over a period of time. These experiences of intense fear make an imprint on the nervous system, impacting our physical and emotional responses to our partners, children, families, friends, and colleagues. Often our inclination is to avoid, ignore or push through these traumas in an effort to minimize the associated pain. However these efforts are futile as unresolved traumas create invisible barriers that hinder the development of a strong sense of self and healthy relationships.
In romantic relationships, trauma can disrupt our ability to trust, to feel safe emotionally and physically, and can interfere with the enjoyment of sex and intimacy. These impacts of trauma may ebb and flow over time, intensifying during big life transitions and resurfacing as we age. Whether you are seeking individual or couples therapy, the therapists at PCT create a trauma-informed space to process trauma, understand its impacts on your relationships and build coping skills to move forward. We are patient and emphasize building a trusting relationship together. Therapists at PCT understand that healing from trauma takes time and progress may not always be linear, but that this work leads to healthier relationships and a stronger sense of self-worth.

Clare Campbell
Psychologist, Ph.D.
As a clinical psychologist with over a decade of experience, I provide intensive psychotherapy for individuals navigating stress and anxiety, including those with a history of trauma. I offer telehealth sessions to clients across the United States, as well as in-person appointments in Darien, Connecticut. My approach is highly individualized, grounded in the belief that meaningful change arises through a deeper understanding of one’s emotional life in the present moment. Together, we will work to uncover and shift long-standing patterns that may be interfering with your well-being, relationships, or sense of self. I aim to bring both compassion and challenge to our work—meeting you with respect, curiosity, and acceptance, while also encouraging growth toward a more authentic and connected version of yourself.

PTSD/Trauma
Centers for Counseling and Wellness, Int'l
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma changes you. Not because you are weak, but because what happened to you was real, and your mind and body did exactly what they were designed to do to keep you alive. The problem is that sometimes those survival responses do not turn off when the danger is gone. And you find yourself stuck, hypervigilant, triggered by things that should feel ordinary, carrying a weight that nobody around you can quite see.
That is not a character flaw. That is trauma. And it is treatable.
At CCW International, trauma is at the core of what we do. It is the reason this practice exists. Our founder, a U.S. Army veteran and licensed clinical psychologist, built CCW International specifically to serve those who have been through the kinds of experiences that leave marks, the ones that do not show up on an X-ray but shape every single day.
We specialize in trauma recovery for women, veterans, and military families, bringing together evidence-based approaches, deep cultural competence, and genuine lived understanding of what it means to survive something hard and still have to show up for your life.
Whether your trauma came from combat, sexual assault, childhood experiences, medical trauma, loss, or any of the countless other ways life can wound us, you deserve care that actually understands what you have been through.
You survived it. Now let us help you heal from it.
