Dominic Schmuck

Psychologist
Online Therapy
How do you work with clients with trauma and PTSD?
I understand that dealing with trauma and PTSD can be difficult and overwhelming. As a psychologist, I've dedicated my doctoral training and career to learning evidence-based practices for trauma-informed care and psychological treatments for PTSD. It can be challenging to find a therapist who knows when and how to apply different interventions for trauma, as exposure techniques and other treatments may not be appropriate for every case. As your therapist, I'll work with you to find the best treatment options for your unique situation. I specialize in helping people heal from religious trauma, but I'm here to support you regardless of the nature of your trauma. During our therapy sessions, I'll provide a safe and non-judgmental environment where you can share your experiences and explore how trauma has affected different areas of your life. Together, we'll work at a pace that's comfortable for you and use treatments that fit your individual needs. Overall, my goal is to provide empathetic support as you work towards healing from trauma and PTSD. I'm here to help you navigate the healing process and find a path to recovery that's right for you.
You are exhausted from constantly holding things together, even when everything inside is falling apart. You're overwhelmed by stress, disconnected from your relationships, and questioning beliefs that once felt certain. These struggles can leave you anxious, burnt out, and unsure of who you are or what comes next. That’s where reaching out to a professional can help. Dr. Dominic Schmuck is a licensed psychologist with over a decade of experience helping adults through life transitions, relationship trauma, and religious shifts (including from high-demand faiths like Mormonism, which he personally left). He works with thoughtful, driven individuals ready to face what’s not working and create a more grounded, meaningful life. Dominic’s style is practical, collaborative, and direct—with a touch of humor when it helps. Sessions focus on real change, not just talk. Clients appreciate his ability to hold space for hard emotions while offering clarity, tools, and support to move forward. If you’re ready to feel more like yourself again and take the next step toward growth, Dominic is here to help. Call, email, or visit his website to schedule a free consultation. Note: Dr. Dominic Schmuck accepts Aetna insurance (excluding Medicaid, Medicare, and Aetna CVS plans) or private pay. Superbills available for out-of-network reimbursement. Therapy hours: Mon–Fri, 9am–2pm.
