Trauma and PTSD
Lauren Blalock
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Trauma can consume our lives, making even everyday tasks much more challenging. You don’t have to continue to suffer with sleepless nights, anxiety, intrusive thoughts and fear, and much more. I have received extensive trauma training that allows me to work from a trauma informed place, ideally reducing your unhelpful automatic responses, incorporating the role your nervous system plays in these responses and allowing for you to tolerate processing the trauma. I am also trained in EMDR, a therapeutic modality create specifically for trauma which might be ideal for you. Contact me today for a free consultation to see how I might be able to help.

Trauma and PTSD
Christopher Schamber
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Through my years working at different mental health agencies within Los Angeles County and Orange County, trauma has been one of the most common issues clients have talked to me about. Trauma can influence the way somebody thinks or feels about themselves and the world around them. These incredibly stressful events often changes our behavior and impacts our ability to function. I am also trained and certified in Cognitive Processing Therapy, and use a variety of other forms of evidence-based treatment as well.
A quick note about trauma-- these events don't have to be dramatically disturbing to have an impact on your mental health. Feel free to read up on this article, which explains the rising understanding about the wide spectrum of traumatic experiences: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/trauma-and-hope/201703/different-types-trauma-small-t-versus-large-t

Victoria Miller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
CPT helps people recognize how trauma has changed their view about themselves, others, and the world. CPT teaches people to recognize the negative thoughts that are created by the trauma. These thoughts are called "stuck points" in CPT because they keep people stuck and get in the way of recovery from PTSD (from the National Center for PTSD (.gov))

Trauma and PTSD
Jonathan Kruger Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Trauma affects our lives in many, many ways. There are complex traumas which occur when an individual endures ongoing, long-term and repetitive abuse of some nature- be it physical, sexual or emotional. Simple traumas, while limited to a single event, are just as devastating for the emotional well-being of the patient. Trauma can be debilitating, lead to addictions, cause unconscious behavior patterns, be completely repressed, and significantly impact our interpersonal and familial relationships.
My therapeutic approach to trauma, offers a nurturing, systematic, and comforting methodology that quietly explores the nature of the trauma in a safe and gentle environment.

Trauma and PTSD
Babak Max Karimbeik
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Research has shown that exposure to traumatic events early in life can have many negative effects throughout childhood and adolescence and into adulthood. Children who suffer from child traumatic stress are those who have been exposed to one or more traumas over the course of their lives and develop reactions that persist and affect their daily lives after the traumatic events have ended. Traumatic events can include witnessing or experiencing physical or sexual abuse, violence in families and communities, loss of a loved one, refugee and war experiences, living with a family member whose caregiving ability is impaired, and having a life-threatening injury or illness. If you haven't had any traumatic events until recently eliminating your trauma/PTSD symptoms is a much easier process. When you experience trauma you're more likely to think from the survival part of your brain. When traumatized individuals are in their Survival Brains, you can expect “thin skin” and lots of volcanic activity! This means that a child’s sensitivity to “fight, flight, freeze” is over-developed, while the ability to self-regulate these functions is under-developed.

Trauma and PTSD
Shana Burns, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist
Both early and later life traumas come in countless forms. We are each impacted to varying degrees by misattunement in childhood. The effects show up in our relational patterns and at times poor coping. Significant trauma or past pain can cause us to feel a lack of safety in our own bodies and in the world. We seek to offer a reparative experience and environment of reliability, compassion and holding, transforming your trauma into resilience and forgiveness.

Trauma and PTSD
G. Safina
Therapist, Individual And Couples Therapy, MA, MS
When a person goes through emotional trauma, it can have a significant influence on their future and shape their life. It can become an important part of their identity, impacting how they behave and interact with others. Childhood trauma frequently causes severe neuroses as well as a lingering sense of inferiority and inadequacy. Following the traumatic event, emotions accumulated one after another. To heal, these emotions need to be addressed in reverse order. It's like peeling an onion—gradually shedding the weight of painful feelings, layer by layer, as they are released.
