Stephen B. Lewis Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Many of my clients first come to see me to help resolve an addiction or reduce anxiety and it turns out that an underlying childhood trauma or PTSD is the root cause of their issue. Using hypnosis I help any client with trauma or PTSD resolve and heal past events, helping them integrate those negative memories so they become part of the distant past rather than something that affects them viscerally in the present.

Trauma is an experience that can impact nearly every aspect of someone's life, from relationships/trust, to work, to self-esteem, to mood and the list goes on. Finding someone who specializes in trauma/PTSD is essential to truly getting the help you need. I offer the gold standard treatments for PTSD (e.g. Cognitive Processing Therapy and Prolonged Exposure), as well as treatments like EMDR and STAIR. Building a strong relationship is the first step to help you on your journey to re-engaging in the life you want to lead. I will then help you process your trauma, understand triggers, and develop new coping strategies for managing.

Make Marriage Better
Psychologist, Ph.D.
At Make Marriage Better, we approach trauma and PTSD with a compassionate and transformative method, helping individuals heal from past wounds that continue to affect their lives and relationships. Our Deconstructing Anxiety™ model guides clients to uncover the 5 "core fears" at the heart of their trauma responses—including fear of abandonment, loss of identity, loss of meaning, loss of purpose and fear of death. We then identify the “chief defenses” that have developed to cope with these fears, like hypervigilance, emotional numbing, or isolation. By encouraging clients to do the opposite of these defenses in a supportive and safe environment, we create a path for them to reclaim their sense of safety, rebuild trust, and experience greater resilience. This healing process not only helps release the hold of traumatic memories but also empowers individuals to engage more openly and authentically in their relationships, fostering a renewed sense of connection and inner peace.

Lisa Paer
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, EMDR Certified
I provide trauma therapy that can help you heal from the wounds of the past and live a more fulfilling life. My service is based on a technique called EMDR, which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. EMDR is a proven method that can help you process your traumatic memories and reduce their negative impact on your present and future. It can help you feel less distressed, more confident, and more in control of your emotions and reactions to triggers. Whether you've experienced a single event or a series of traumas, I can help you work through them. I'm a trauma-informed therapist who will create a safe and supportive space for you to work through your past, enhance your coping skills, and improve your quality of life.

Juliet Baxter
Therapist, AMFT
As a somatic therapist, my view is that working with the body and the nervous system is key to working with trauma. Trauma is an overwhelming event that the body holds onto because it could not be processed at the time. That is why the body must be included in the recovery.

Charis Khoury
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I see trauma in a broad sense- any experience that was too overwhelming to process in the moment and is stored in the body/mind. Gently, we can integrate and find freedom from these experiences.

Lisa Andresen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The links between trauma and achievement spotlight the success stories of people who've endured difficult pasts. Through resilience and resourcefulness, some persevered and found success as an outlet for improving self-esteem. How else could you have filled the void of highly critical, emotionally unavailable parents? The trouble is that success may be tough to integrate and truly celebrate as your own, no matter how impressive your resume gets. Fortunately, recovery from trauma is very possible and with time, can foster post-traumatic growth which leads to a more fulfilling life and meaningful relationships. My clinical approach includes Internal Family Systems which explores how different parts of you protect and serve you. Trauma-Focused CBT also helps unravel core-beliefs that may complicate your relationship with yourself, your ability to trust others, or see the world as a safe place.
