Avi Tapp

I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker specializing in complex & relational trauma for adults navigating C-PTSD, dissociative disorders, ADHD, addiction, and identity integration. I’m EMDRIA‑trained in EMDR, IFS Level 1 clinician, and Ketamine‑Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)–trained, weaving these modalities into relational, somatic, and parts‑based work.

Therapy style

Grounded yet intuitive, I balance depth exploration with practical, body‑centered tools clients can use immediately. Sessions integrate nervous‑system regulation, parts mapping, and mindfulness, paced to each person’s tolerance window so they feel safe and empowered. My practice affirms all genders, sexualities, and cultural identities, meeting every client with warmth, curiosity, and clarity.

Speaker & educator

As a trauma therapist, educator, and speaker, I bridge clinical science with lived experience. I’ve presented to mental‑health professionals, educators, community leaders, and survivor groups on topics such as:

• Healing complex PTSD & dissociation through EMDR, IFS, and KAP
• ADHD & executive‑function strategies within trauma treatment
• Integrating identity, resilience, and mental health in diverse communities
• Group facilitation for resilience and post‑traumatic growth

Whether in therapy or on stage, my goal is to help people cultivate a steadier, kinder relationship with themselves and the people who matter most.
