San Diego Therapists specializing in Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

Online Virtual Therapy with Gina Easton

Trauma can be characterized as experiencing, witnessing, or learning of a devastating event or series of events. Trauma can lead to PTSD, causing significant challenges in functioning if not treated. At Centered Mind Therapy, we take a trauma-informed approach in slowly working through resolving trauma, identifying ways to cope with emotional triggers, and foster a sense of safety so that recovery is possible.

Charley Rodich

I strive to create a safe, trusting, and non-judgmental environment where clients can explore emotional difficulties and learn new tools and coping strategies to help manage symptoms.

MARY ANN FORNES

Are you struggling with intrusive negative thoughts, recurring anxiety, flashbacks or something similar? Do you resonate with beliefs of unworthiness, "I am not important," feeling powerless, a failure, abandoned? My sessions are about gaining clarity, direction and control. Clients learn to manage the thoughts and emotions that drive behavior. EMDR, CBT and Psychodynamic are interventions that can reduce these symptoms effectively. I look forward to working with you in getting your life back.

I also have worked with the LGBTQ+ community, families, and survivors of abuse. I am a culturally sensitive therapist who acts as an ally and advocate for my clients. My specialty areas include depression, anxiety, interpersonal conflict, stress management, and life transitions.

Brenda Curtis

I believe you as an individual are adaptive and have the ability to heal. We all face circumstances that may become overwhelming impeding the ability to cope. I look forward to helping you with finding insight into your life struggles. I have a unique ability to remain objective with simultaneous engagement and reassurance. I specialize in PTSD, trauma, depression, anxiety, grief/loss, as well as working with those whom have addition/substance use issues.

Alissa Young

Transitioning through adulthood without appropriate support and tools can leave you feeling anxious, burnt-out, and depressed. You may be in a place of frustration, as new situations and challenges have started to pile up - causing you to feel like you have “too much on your plate.” Rent! Bills! Mental Health?! Self-Care?! Trauma?! Friend Drama! Family Drama! College?! Career next steps?! The list of new transitions goes on and on - and it never stops. Asking for help is OKAY!

I also have training in DBT and draw from other modalities, as needed, depending on the needs of my clients. I provide online therapy services to clients throughout the sate of California.

Ava Ames

Are you feeling lost, hopeless, or trapped in your limiting beliefs? Are you struggling with anxiety that holds you back from making the changes you want in your life? Are your relationships not what you want them to be, and does your sense of purpose feel out of reach? I understand just how overwhelming and isolating these experiences can be. My approach is a blend of knowledgable depth and levity, and I prioritize getting to the root of issues rather than just treating surface-level symptoms.

Lindsay Elizondo

I specialize in working with women, young adults (~18-25), relationship issues, depth work, LGBTQ+ community, and religious harm/trauma. I really enjoy working with people who are sensitive or a bit countercultural, and helping women examine the impact of sociocultural norms and expectations (e.g., to not take up space). Much healing can be had in challenging these messages, reconnecting with your body and emotions, accepting yourself as you are, and re-centering your values and your voice.

Jason Cencirulo

The first step in healing is often the scariest, and my hope is that you take that step - for you, for those you love, and those who love you. Whether you’re reaching out to heal, to grow, to grieve, or to understand, my goal is to create a space where you will be heard, seen, and understood in a way that allows you to approach the challenges of living in new ways.

J.M. Evosevich

In today’s 24/7 instant communication and gratification culture, stress and pressure are often all too common, in addition to dealing with COVID-19, its limitations to life and social isolation. Our jobs, relationships, friendships and even our pets demand time from us and results in little “me” time. Going offline to nurture yourself is all too uncommon but can be the key to a more contented, joyous, and thriving life. I specialize in helping you have a more happy, healthy, productive life.

Jackie Jacobo

On your best days, you know that you’re an icon; but on your tough days you feel shame, loneliness, depression and self-criticism. And anxiety is basically part of your personality at this point. I’m here to remind you that YOU are not the problem. For real! The systems and social environments you have been in are the problem. I’m here to uproot those damaging beliefs that were put on you and in you and that continually get in the way of you remembering the iconic baddie you are. Let’s get unde

Antoinette Mastronardi

I am hella good at working with folks that are generally high functioning, but have been white knuckling their way through their anxiety/depression. My clients typically have their shit together to the outside world, but inside they feel like a hot mess - they might drink or spend more than they want to, they might beat themselves up all day long, they might be suffering from social anxiety, painful self-doubt, and unfulfilling relationships. If this sounds like you - I can help.

Tamara Sharifov

My clients quickly learn that their pains are not a weakness, but a portal towards wisdom and growth. Through my approach I work with you to enhance your innate strength, reconnect with your ability to continue thriving, and guide you towards self-compassion. I believe through the appropriate therapeutic approach, our deepest struggles and difficult life experiences can become the force of our greatest wisdom.
