Complex PTSD in Oakland, CA

At Trauma Therapy Online in Oakland, CA, I specialize in offering therapeutic services designed to address the complexities of Complex PTSD


Complex PTSD is a serious mental health condition that arises from prolonged or repeated trauma, often manifesting through emotional dysregulation, negative self-perception, and interpersonal difficulties. Unlike typical PTSD, which may follow a specific traumatic event, Complex PTSD can develop from ongoing traumatic experiences, including childhood emotional, physical, sexual, or spiritual abuse and neglect, as well as prolonged exposure to life-threatening situations.



I understand the unique challenges faced by individuals struggling with Complex PTSD and provide a compassionate and tailored approach to therapy. I believe healing is possible through evidence-based therapeutic methodologies that are both adaptable and personalized to meet the specific needs of my clients. Whether you are seeking to manage symptoms, develop healthier relationships, or achieve a more balanced emotional state, I am here to help you on your journey to recovery.

What I Offer


At Trauma Therapy Online, I offer a comprehensive suite of services designed to help individuals effectively manage and overcome the symptoms of Complex PTSD. My approach is centered around creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings without judgment. My specific offerings include:


  • Individual Therapy Sessions: One-on-one therapeutic sessions tailored to meet the personalized needs of each client, focusing on building resilience and coping strategies.


  • Group Therapy: Interactive group sessions that provide a communal space for shared experiences and support, helping to foster connection and understanding.


  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Targeted CBT interventions aimed at changing negative thought patterns and behaviors.


  • Internal Family Systems (IFS): An approach that helps clients understand different internal “parts,” develop greater self-awareness, and work toward emotional healing and internal balance.


  • Schema Therapy: An approach focused on identifying and changing deeply ingrained patterns of thinking, beliefs, behaviors, and coping responses.


  • Trauma-Focused Therapy: Specialized approaches such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), which can help clients process traumatic memories and reduce associated distress, and The Butterfly Touch, a tapping technique for trauma survivors.


  • Mindfulness and Relaxation Techniques: Guided practices designed to help manage stress and promote emotional regulation.


Each of these services is designed to promote healing and encourage personal growth in a structured and supportive setting.

Benefits of Complex PTSD Services


The benefits of engaging with my Complex PTSD therapy services are numerous and can significantly impact various aspects of life. My approach is designed to empower individuals by helping them regain control over their mental health and improve their quality of life.


Firstly, clients can expect to see a significant reduction in symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and hypervigilance. My evidence-based methods aim to address these symptoms directly, helping individuals to manage their day-to-day emotions more effectively. As individuals work through their trauma with me, they often experience an increased sense of emotional stability and resilience.


Secondly, my therapy services can lead to improved relationships with family, friends, and colleagues. By learning new coping strategies and communication skills, individuals can rebuild trust and strengthen their interpersonal connections. This improvement often contributes to a more supportive social network, which is crucial for long-term recovery.



Finally, many clients discover a renewed sense of purpose and a more positive self-image. Through my supportive therapeutic environment, individuals learn to challenge negative self-perceptions and develop a healthier, more constructive view of themselves. This shift in self-perception can lead to greater self-esteem and confidence, empowering individuals to pursue their personal and professional goals with renewed vigor.

My Process


My process begins with a thorough assessment of each client's unique needs and circumstances. At Trauma Therapy Online, I recognize that no two individuals experience trauma in the same way, which is why I emphasize personalized care from the start. During the initial assessment, I work with clients to understand their history, current symptoms, and personal goals.


Once the assessment is complete, a customized treatment plan is developed in collaboration with the client. This plan outlines the therapeutic strategies that will be used, providing a clear path forward. I use a range of evidence-based practices, ensuring that each session is both impactful and focused on the individual’s journey toward healing.



Throughout the therapy process, clients receive continuous support and feedback from me. Regular progress reviews are conducted to ensure that treatment goals are being met and to make any necessary adjustments to the approach. I am committed to building a strong, trusting relationship with my clients, as this is crucial to the success of the therapy.
