Meet Tamar (Gyorgyi)
BA, BSW, MSW, RSW
Tamar Hidegh is a trauma-focused clinician with a deep commitment to supporting those who serve and protect. She began her career working in the field of addiction, where she quickly recognized that substance use was often a symptom of unresolved trauma. This insight led her to specialize in trauma therapy, where she now works extensively with military veterans, police officers, paramedics, firefighters, and other frontline professionals.
Tamar’s current clinical focus includes post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), complex PTSD (C-PTSD), and moral injury, with a particular emphasis on the unique ways trauma impacts uniformed service members. She understands that experiences such as chronic exposure to threat, operational stress, and ethical conflicts can deeply affect identity, relationships, and nervous system regulation.
Tamar believes that effective trauma treatment must address both the cognitive and physiological imprints of trauma—combining insight-based work with body-centered interventions to support lasting healing.Her integrative approach blends evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), somatic interventions, and psychedelic-assisted therapy.
