About Me

Hi, I'm Carrie Ann Cleveland

M.A., LMFT, LPCC | Trauma Therapist | EMDR Certified

I help individuals heal from narcissistic abuse, coercive control, high-conflict divorce and custody trauma, and complex PTSD.

My work is deeply personal. Like many trauma therapists, I entered this field after surviving my own experiences with narcissistic abuse, post-separation abuse, and an extremely high-conflict custody dispute.

I know what it feels like to doubt yourself, to lose your voice, and navigate systems that weren’t built to protect you or your children.

My clinical expertise is grounded in:

• Trauma therapy

• EMDR

• High-conflict family dynamics

• Attachment wounds

• Complex PTSD

• Emotional, physical, sexual abuse and all other forms of abuse

• Gaslighting, manipulation, coercive control

• Post-separation and litigation abuse

My Approach

Therapy with me is warm, direct and collaborative.

I honor every part of your story, even the parts you’ve been taught to hide or minimize.

Together we’ll make sense of what happened to you, and work toward building the best version of yourself, a you that is empowered, confident and unstoppable.

Healing is possible.

And you don’t have to do it alone.
