Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Whitman, MA
I specialize in complex traumas, grief, mood disorders and substance use disorders.
The human spirit is an incredible thing…..often times in a person's life, one will experience events that challenge them and their spirit. With the pandemic came an influx of folks being faced with anxieties, depression, grief, trauma triggers and substance use. The need for support with mental health care is on the rise; sometimes, having an empathetic and compassionate listener can make a world of difference to a person who has lost hope. I offer individual counseling to folks who are looking to build or improve their coping skills, process their traumas/grief and build insight into underlying causes of substance use disorders.

We utilize a strengths-based and solution focused approach, and provide person-centered, cognitive behavioral, and trauma focused interventions to address concerns with depression, anxiety, trauma, and other mental health needs.
Oftentimes, life circumstances and human biology becomes a barrier to an individual’s ability to transform their lives. Some barriers are bigger than others, and can be challenging to conquer alone. The therapeutic process is sacred. It recognizes that growth isn’t always accessible when an individual acknowledges a need for change. People do well when they have the means to do so, and for some, change requires a safe and nurturing space in which a person can be truly heard, where barriers can be identified, and creative and collaborative problem solving can occur.

Trauma and PTSD Therapists
When should I seek treatment for trauma?
Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.
How long does trauma therapy take?
Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.
What happens if trauma is left untreated?
Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.
Can PTSD come back after treatment?
It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
